The skin impedance is well various and changeable rapidly, so it is not easy to measure precisely the all frequency characteristics(l). In order to measure the all frequency characteristics, there are two methods as follows. One is multi-frequency points measuring method and the other is the fast fourier transformation (FFT) method from the response in time domain. However, the former demands v...

Bench measurements nowadays represent an important tool to estimate the coupling impedance of any particle accelerator device. The well-known technique based on the coaxial wire method allows to excite in the device under test a field similar to the one generated by an ultra-relativistic point charge. Nevertheless the measured impedance of the device needs comparisons to numerical simulations a...

A master-slave type remote ultrasound diagnostic system was developed. This paper presents and evaluates its control strategy. There is only one impedance controller that is located in the master site or the slave site or the relay point in the conventional impedance controller. Therefore, the effect of the time lag in transmitting force and position data becomes large in the conventional syste...

Point-wise ex vivo electrical impedance spectroscopy measurements were conducted on excised hepatic tissue from human patients with metastatic colorectal cancer using a linear four-electrode impedance probe. This study of 132 measurements from 10 colorectal cancer patients, the largest to date, reports that the equivalent electrical conductivity for tumor tissue is significantly higher than nor...

Miniature high speed label-free cell analysis systems have yet to be developed, but have the potential to deliver fast, inexpensive and simple full blood cell analysis systems that could be used routinely in clinical practice. We demonstrate a microfluidic single cell impedance cytometer that performs a white blood cell differential count. The device consists of a microfluidic chip with micro-e...

Notes by ChangHoon Lim 1. Warburg impedance for semi-infinite oscillating diffusion Warburg (Ann. Physik. 1899) is credited with the first solution to the diffusion equation with oscillating concentration at the boundary, which is related to the diffusional (or mass transfer) impedance of electrochemical systems. An interesting point made in the first part of the class is that the very same mat...

This article presents distributed impedance as a new approach for multiple robot system control. In this approach, each cooperating manipulator is controlled by an independent impedance controller. In addition, along selected degrees of freedom, force control is achieved through an external loop, to improve control of the object’s internal loading. Extensive stability analysis is performed, bas...

We present a theoretical investigation on possible selection of olfactory receptors (ORs) as sensing components of nanobiosensors. Accordingly, we generate the impedance spectra of the rat OR I7 in the native and activated state and analyze their differences. In this way, we connect the protein morphological transformation, caused by the sensing action, with its change of electrical impedance. ...

&&act-The active RC simulation of LC filters is of interest, due to the excellent sensitivity properties thereby obtained. Most known designs of active RC driving-point impedances necessary for the simulation of an LC filter, require two opamps per impedance. In this paper a method is presented that realizes general second-order driving-point impedances with only one opamp and with a minimum nu...

In this paper, the general problem of impedance control for a robotic manipulator with a moving flexible base is addressed. Impedance control imposes a relation between force and displacement at the contact point with the environment. The concept of impedance control of flexible base mobile manipulator is rather new and is being considered for first time using singular perturbation and new slid...
