The electro-tactile display with localized high-speed switching is a novel type of electro-tactile display based on H-Bridge circuit that uses only one electrical source at a time. By using this display electrical stimulations can easily be presented and measured simultaneously. In this paper, other new methods for electrical stimulation, including scan-type ectrical stimulation and dipole elec...

This study demonstrates a novel method for electrical detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) as a means of identifying an infection in the body, or as a cardiovascular disease risk assay. The method uses a single free-standing, thermally controlled piezoresistive microcantilever biosensor. In a commonly used sensing arrangement of conventional dual cantilevers in the Wheatstone bridge circuit, r...

According to the auditory principle of fish’s lateral line organ, a novel microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) bionic vector hydrophone used for obtaining vector information of underwater sound field is introduced in this paper. It is desirable that the application of MEMS-based piezoresistive effect and bionics structure may improve the low-frequency sensitivity of the vector hydrophone as we...

The present work deals with the development of low cost, appreciably accurate precision electronic circuit for resistive sensor where measurement of the incremental resistance change with high degree of accuracy is essential. A linear and sensitive active half bridge circuit requiring only few components for its hardware implementation has been proposed for measuring very small resistance chang...

The paper deals with a pair of current-mode sine-wave oscillator circuits. Both these circuits are implemented using positive second-generation current conveyors (CCII+). The principle of the first oscillator is based on a conventional Wien-bridge network. However, this implementation suffers from the use of a floating capacitor, which can be unacceptable in the case of on-chip integration. Thi...

Ever since the middle of the last centurywhen Sir Charles Wheatstone first put to practical use a curious electrical balancing network which had been devised a decade before by a fellow Englishman named Christie, the bridge circuit has been accepted a s avaluable and powerful tool in the field of electrical measurement. Even though today bridges, like almost everything else, have become increas...

This paper presents an induced voltage linear extraction method for disturbing force self-sensing in the application of giant magnetostrictive actuators (GMAs). In this method, a Kelvin bridge combined with an active device is constructed instead of a conventional Wheatstone bridge for extraction of the induced voltage, and an additional GMA is adopted as a reference actuator in the self-sensin...

This paper reports on the analysis of the signals sent by accelerometers fixed on the axles of a vehicle which passes over a bridge. The length of the bridge is divided into some parts and the transmissibility measurement is applied to the signals recorded by two following instrumented axles. As the transmissibility procedure is performed on the divided signals, the method is called Short Time ...
