The advancement of transmission techniques provides simplicity and comfort in health monitoring, specifically in identifying the health conditions of each individual. ECG signal processing systems are the most efficient diagnostic applications of health care monitoring systems. In practical applications we use ECG signal processing systems in hospitals to monitor the vital signs of patients and...

2000 To my family iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I express my sincere gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Sumi Helal, for giving me the opportunity to work on this challenging topic and for providing continuous guidance and feedback during the course of this work and thesis writing. Without his encouragement this thesis would not have been possible. Dr. Frank for agreeing to attend my defense on my last minute r...

Direct simulations of two-dimensional channel flow a viscoelastic fluid have revealed the existence family Tollmien-Schlichting (TS) attractors that is nonlinearly self-sustained by viscoelasticity [Shekar et al., J.Fluid Mech. 893, A3 (2020)]. Here, we describe evolution this branch in parameter space and its connections to Newtonian TS attractor elastoinertial turbulence (EIT). At Reynolds nu...

Mobile technologies and more precisely apps have disrupted technology scenario. Bring your own application (BYOA) is a new trend that has emerged after the “bring your own device” (BYOD) vogue. However, and in spite of its intrinsic benefits, the trend presents also several caveats and Enterprise app stores are seen as a way to tackle these risks. In this paper, authors present ModEAS, a system...

Social reformers such as John Stuart Mill and John Dewey have long expressed concern about a tension between democratic principles and organizational practices that appear undemocratic.' More recently, a substantial body of academic literature advocating changes in organizations to make them more democratic has been produced.2 Change has been advocated on a variety of normative grounds. In a no...

in this paper, surface and piezoelectric effects on the vibration behavior of nanowires (nws) are investigated by using a timoshenko beam model. the electric field equations and the governing equations of motion for the piezoelectric nws are derived with the consideration of surface effects. by the exact solution of the governing equations, an expression for the natural frequencies of nws with ...

statins are most effective pharmacologically agents to decrease total plasma cholesterol level by competitive inhibition of hmg-co a reductase. apart from the well-known ldl and cholesterol lowering effect, statins have been postulated to exert other beneficial effects also called pleotropic or non-lipid effects. better understanding of various pleotropic effects of statins has prompted a new s...
