Piezoelectric accelerometers using a lead-free (K,Na)NbO3 (KNN) piezoceramic modified by a mixture of two Bi-based perovskites, Bi(Na,K,Li)ZrO3 (BNKLZ) and BiScO3 (BS), were designed, fabricated and characterized. Ring-shaped ceramics were prepared using a conventional solid-state reaction method for integration into a compression-mode acceleromete...

Aimed at the poor recognition effect of current educational robots on objects with complex shapes and colors and the single design of related experiments, this paper proposes a robot teaching instrument. The robot adopts a servo motor with an encoder, a drive, and a variety of sensors to realize a motor current loop, speed loop, position loop, and ...

This paper presents the integration of active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) with soft sensors for enhancing the composition control performance in a distillation column. Static and dynamic soft sensors are developed to estimate the top and bottom product compositions using multiple tray temperatures. In order to cope with the collinearity is...

Shipping traffic is recognised as the main man-noise source of the anthropogenic noise generated in the marine environment. The underwater acoustic pollution is increased due to the increment of the human activity at seas supposing a threat for marine habitats. The ship as acoustic source must be understood and controlled to manage the maritime are...

Cognitive impairment features in neuropsychiatric conditions and when undiagnosed can have a severe impact on the affected individual's safety and ability to perform daily tasks. Virtual Reality (VR) systems are increasingly being explored for the recognition, diagnosis and treatment of cognitive impairment. In this paper, we describe novel VR-deri...

The evolution towards next-generation Beyond 5G (B5G) networks will require not only innovation in transport technologies but also the adoption of smarter, more efficient operations of the use cases that are foreseen to be the high consumers of network resources in the next decades. Among different B5G use cases, the Digital Twin (DT) has been iden...

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), efficient data dissemination to a specified number of vehicles with minimum collisions and limited access delay is critical for accident prevention in road safety. However, packet collisions have a significant impact on access delay, and they may lead to unanticipated link failure when a range of diversified c...
