Effect of logarithmic and linear frequency scales on parametric modelling of tissue dielectric data
(IOP Publishing, 2017-02-03)The dielectric properties of biological tissues have been studied widely over the past half-century. These properties are used in a vast array of applications, from determining the safety of wireless telecommunication ... -
Effect of modeling approach on climate change focused life cycle assessments for a contemporary smartphone device
(2014)Life cycle assessments (LCA) of consumer electronics and beyond are usually performed and reported very differently. As a result it is often difficult to assess the robustness, variability and transparency of reported LCA ... -
Effect of sawdust addition on composting of separated raw and anaerobically digested pig manure
(Elsevier, 2012-06)Manures need the addition of carbon-rich bulking agents to conserve N during composting, which increases the cost of the composting process. The recommended proportion of manure / sawdust, based on a carbon (C): nitrogen ... -
Effects of standard coagulant agents on the dielectric properties of fresh human blood
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2017-11-27)In this paper, the effects of coagulation and temperature on the dielectric properties of human blood are investigated over the frequency range of 400 MHz - 20 GHz using freshly extracted blood samples. The dielectric ... -
Electricity in a Climate Constrained World [Book Review]
(IEEE, 2014-01)This latest study by the International Energy Agency (IEA) on world electricity consumption, its current status, and the most likely developments we are going to see during the next few years. If you are familiar with ... -
Evaluation of Combined Visible/NIR Camera for Iris Authentication on smartphones
(IEEE, 2015)Iris biometrics provide a mature and robust method of authentication, but are typically applied in a controlled environment and under constrained acquisition conditions. In this paper, the adaption of iris biometrics for ... -
Exploiting tissue dielectric properties to shape microwave thermal ablation zones
(MDPI, 2020-07-16)The dielectric characterization of tissue targets of microwave thermal ablation (MTA) have improved the efficacy and pre-procedural planning of treatment. In some clinical scenarios the tissue target lies at the interface ... -
A feasibility study on microwave imaging of bone for osteoporosis monitoring
(Springer, 2021-03-30)The dielectric properties of bones are found to be influenced by the demineralisation of bones. Therefore, microwave imaging (MWI) can be used to monitor in vivo dielectric properties of human bones and hence aid in the ... -
Gamma band neural stimulation in humans and the promise of a new modality to prevent and treat Alzheimer's disease
(IOS Press, 2018-07-19)Existing treatments for Alzheimer s Disease have questionable efficacy with a need for research into new and more effective therapies to both treat and possibly prevent the condition. This review examines a novel therapeutic ... -
GazeVisual: A practical software tool and web application for performance evaluation of eye tracking systems
(IEEE, 2019-04-22)The concept and functionalities of a software tool developed for in depth performance evaluation of eye gaze estimation systems is presented. The software, GazeVisual has capabilities for quantitative, statistical, and ... -
Haemodynamic performance of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) during recovery from total hip arthroplasty
(2013-03-05)Background: Patients post total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain at high risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during the recovery period following surgery despite the availability of effective pharmacological and ... -

Heparin as an anticoagulant for the dielectric measurement of blood
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-01-23)Testing blood ex-vivo allows physicians to gain an understanding of what is happening within the human body. Once blood is extracted from the body, it begins to clot. This process can affect the outcome of blood tests, ... -
Home network infrastructure for handheld/wearable appliances
(IEEE, 2002)A server infrastructure allows wireless wearable appliances or portable handsets to access consumer services offered via the server. Services are accessed via a Universal Home Services Interface (UHSI) which is ... -
Human centred design considerations for connected health devices for the older adult
(MDPI, 2014-06-04)Connected health devices are generally designed for unsupervised use, by non-healthcare professionals, facilitating independent control of the individuals own healthcare. Older adults are major users of such devices ... -
