An inspection of signal processing approach in order to estimate underwater network cardinalities is conducted in this research. A matter of key prominence for underwater network is its cardinality estimation as the number of active cardinalities varies several times due to numerous natural and artificial reasons due to harsh underwater circumstances. So, a proper estimation technique is mandat...

Underwater robotics is currently a growing field. To be able to autonomously find and collect objects on the land and in the air is a complicated problem, which is only compounded within the underwater setting. Different techniques have been developed over the years to attempt to solve this problem, many of which involve the use of expensive sensors. This paper explores a method to find the dep...

Intrusive re-experiencing is a core symptom in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), often triggered by contextual cues associated with the trauma. It is not yet clear if intrusive re-experiencing is only the result, or whether it may contribute to the establishment of PTSD following acute stress. This study aimed at examining the impact of an underwater trauma (UWT) reminder on anxiety-like b...

The design and construction of autonomous electronic instrumentation to generate fast high voltage discharges (6 to 10 kV) on a piezoelectric crystal array, in order to produce underwater shock waves, is described. If properly focused, hundreds of these shock waves are capable of destroying renal and ureteral calculi. This clinical treatment, developed more than 20 years ago, is known as extrac...

recently, data collection from seabed by means of underwater wireless sensor networks (uwsn) has attracted considerable attention. autonomous underwater vehicles (auvs) are increasingly used as uwsns in underwater missions. events and environmental parameters in underwater regions have a stochastic nature. the target area must be covered by sensors to observe and report events. a ‘topology cont...

BACKGROUND Tube thoracostomy is a lifesaving and frequently performed procedure in hospitals where the expertise and necessary tools are available. Where the ideal drainage receptacle is unavailable, the underwater seal device can be improvised with bottled water plastic can especially in emergency situations. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To determine the frequencies of the various indications and com...

underwater target imaging using acoustic waves is possible by employing the method used in synthetic aperture radars. in recent years, synthetic aperture sonar has been the subject of several researches. wherein imaging of underwater moving target is required, inverse synthetic aperture sonar (isas) idea can be used but specifications and limitations of underwater channel should be considered. ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) patients respond to trauma-related danger cues even in objectively safe environments as if they were in the original event, seemingly unable to adequately modulate their responses based on the contextual cues present. In order to model this inability to utilize contextualized memory, in an animal model of PTSD, a novel experimental paradigm of contextual cu...
