RESUMEN

Passive non-destructive evaluation tools such as acoustic emission (AE) testing and acousto-ultrasonics (AU) approach present a complex problem in damage localisation in complex and nonhomogeneous geometries. A novel AU-guided AE frequency interpretation approach is proposed in this research work which aims at overcoming this limitation. For the experimental evaluation, the damage sources from a geometrically complex clear dental aligners are tested under cyclic compression load and their origins are evaluated. Despite the rapid worldwide diffusion of the clear aligners, their mechanical behaviour is poorly investigated. In this work, the frequency characteristics of the artificially simulated stress wave, generated from different dental positions of the clear aligners, are studied using the AU approach. These frequency characteristics are then used to analyse the AE signals generated by these aligners when subjected to cyclic compressive loading. In addition, the time domain characteristics of the AE signals are studied using their Time of Arrival (ToA). The Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is used to estimate the ToA. These frequency and time domain characteristics of the AE signals are used to estimate the local damage origin in the clear dental aligners. This will help in identifying localised damage sources during the usage period of the aligners. Experimental results revealed significant damages in the left maxillary premolar and right maxillary third molar of the aligners.

RESUMEN

Nonstationary fault signals collected from wind turbine planetary gearboxes and bearings often exhibit close-spaced instantaneous frequencies (IFs), or even crossed IFs, bringing challenges for existing time-frequency analysis (TFA) methods. To address the issue, a data-driven TFA technique, termed CTNet is developed. The CTNet is a novel model that combines a fully convolutional auto-encoder network with the convolutional block attention module (CBAM). In the CTNet, the encoder layer is first designed to extract coarse features of the time-frequency representation (TFR) calculated by the general linear Chirplet transform (GLCT); second, the decoder layer is combined to restore and conserve details of the key time-frequency features; third, the skip connections are designed to accelerate training by linking extracted and reconstructed features; finally, the CBAM is introduced to adaptively explore channel and spatial relationships of the TFR, focusing more on close-spaced or crossed frequency features, and effectively reconstruct the TFR. The effectiveness of the CTNet is validated by numerical signals with close-spaced or crossed IFs, and real-world signals of wind turbine planetary gearbox and bearings. Comparison analysis with state-of-the-art TFA methods shows that the CTNet has high time-frequency resolution in characterizing nonstationary signals and a much better ability to detect wind turbine faults.

RESUMEN

To address rotor imbalance and misalignment in oil transfer pumps, an innovative diagnostic framework using Residual Network (ResNet) is proposed. The model incorporates advanced signal processing algorithms and strategic sensor placement to enhance diagnostic efficacy. A fault simulation test rig captured vibration signals from eight key measurement points on the pump. One-dimensional and multi-dimensional signal processing techniques generated comprehensive datasets for training and validating the model. Sensor placement optimization, focusing on the bearing seat's axial direction, inlet flange's vertical direction, and outlet flange's axial direction, increased rotor fault sensitivity. Time-frequency data processed via Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) achieved the highest diagnostic accuracy, surpassing 98 %. This study highlights the importance of optimal signal processing and precise sensor placement in improving the accuracy of diagnosing rotor faults in oil transfer pumps, thus enhancing the operational reliability and efficiency of energy transportation systems.

RESUMEN

The Climate Suitability Index (CSI) can increase agricultural efficiency by identifying the high-potential areas for cultivation from the climate perspective. The present study develops a probabilistic framework to calculate CSI for rainfed cultivation of 12 medicinal plants from the climate perspective of precipitation and temperature. Unlike the ongoing frameworks based on expert judgments, this formulation decreases the inherent subjectivity by using two components: frequency analysis and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). In the first component, the precipitation and temperature layers were prepared by calculating the occurrence probability for each plant, and the obtained probabilities were spatially interpolated using geographical information system processes. In the second component, PSO quantifies CSI by classifying a study area into clusters using an unsupervised clustering technique. The formulation was implemented in the Lake Urmia basin, which was distressed by unsustainable water resources management. By identifying clusters with higher CSI values for each plant, the results provide deeper insights to optimize cultivation patterns in the basin. These insights can help managers and farmers increase yields, reduce costs, and improve profitability.

RESUMEN

Autism spectrum disorder stands as a multifaceted and heterogeneous neurodevelopmental condition. The utilization of functional magnetic resonance imaging to construct functional brain networks proves instrumental in comprehending the intricate interplay between brain activity and autism spectrum disorder, thereby elucidating the underlying pathogenesis at the cerebral level. Traditional functional brain networks, however, typically confine their examination to connectivity effects within a specific frequency band, disregarding potential connections among brain areas that span different frequency bands. To harness the full potential of interregional connections across diverse frequency bands within the brain, our study endeavors to develop a novel multi-frequency analysis method for constructing a comprehensive functional brain networks that incorporates multiple frequencies. Specifically, our approach involves the initial decomposition of functional magnetic resonance imaging into distinct frequency bands through wavelet transform. Subsequently, Pearson correlation is employed to generate corresponding functional brain networks and kernel for each frequency band. Finally, the classification was performed by a multi-kernel support vector machine, to preserve the connectivity effects within each band and the connectivity patterns shared among the different bands. Our proposed multi-frequency functional brain networks method yielded notable results, achieving an accuracy of 89.1%, a sensitivity of 86.67%, and an area under the curve of 0.942 in a publicly available autism spectrum disorder dataset.

RESUMEN

Neurophysiological brain activity comprises rhythmic (periodic) and arrhythmic (aperiodic) signal elements, which are increasingly studied in relation to behavioral traits and clinical symptoms. Current methods for spectral parameterization of neural recordings rely on user-dependent parameter selection, which challenges the replicability and robustness of findings. Here, we introduce a principled approach to model selection, relying on Bayesian information criterion, for static and time-resolved spectral parameterization of neurophysiological data. We present extensive tests of the approach with ground-truth and empirical magnetoencephalography recordings. Data-driven model selection enhances both the specificity and sensitivity of spectral and spectrogram decompositions, even in non-stationary contexts. Overall, the proposed spectral decomposition with data-driven model selection minimizes the reliance on user expertise and subjective choices, enabling more robust, reproducible, and interpretable research findings.

RESUMEN

Objective. Time-frequency (T-F) analysis of electroencephalographic (EEG) is a common technique to characterise spectral changes in neural activity. This study explores the limitations of utilizing conventional spectral techniques in examining cyclic event-related cortical activities due to challenges, including high inter-trial variability.Approach. Introducing the cycle-frequency (C-F) analysis, we aim to enhance the evaluation of cycle-locked respiratory events. For synthetic EEG that mimicked cycle-locked pre-motor activity, C-F had more accurate frequency and time localization compared to conventional T-F analysis, even for a significantly reduced number of trials and a variability of breathing rhythm.Main results. Preliminary validations using real EEG data during both unloaded breathing and loaded breathing (that evokes pre-motor activity) suggest potential benefits of using the C-F method, particularly in normalizing time units to cyclic activity phases and refining baseline placement and duration.Significance. The proposed approach could provide new insights for the study of rhythmic neural activities, complementing T-F analysis.

RESUMEN

In recent years, the escalating effects of climate change on surface water bodies have underscored the critical importance of analyzing streamflow trends for effective water resource planning and management. This study conducts a comprehensive regional investigation into the streamflow rate trends of 18 rivers across the United Kingdom (UK). An enhanced Mann-Kendall (MK) test was employed to meticulously analyze both rainfall and streamflow trends on monthly and annual scales. Additionally, the Innovative Trend Analysis (ITA) method was applied to elucidate the variability of streamflow rates, providing a more nuanced understanding of hydrological changes in response to climatic shifts. MK test reveals statistically significant positive trends in streamflow rates, particularly for rivers in south-central Scotland and northern England. Specifically, in January, rivers such as the Tay at Ballathie, Tweed at Peebles, and Teviot at Ormiston showed Z-scores above 2. Annually, similar positive trends were observed, with the Tay at Ballathie (Z = 3.42) and Nith at Friars Carse (Z = 3.35) exhibiting the highest increases in streamflow rates. The ITA method showed no relevant trends for the lowest values of streamflow, except for the Thames at Kingston, while considerable variability was observed for the highest streamflow rates, with several rivers showing positive trends and, however, some England rivers, like Bure at Ingworth, Test at Broadlands, and Trent at Colwick, showing negative trends. From this perspective, a more in-depth analysis of the extreme streamflow trends was carried out. In particular, the flood frequency of the maximum annual streamflow was assessed, based on the fitting of the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution on the annual maxima. Increasing location parameter (µ) and return period trends were observed for several rivers across the UK. In particular, the Tay at Ballathie (Scotland) showed the most marked increase, with µ that ranged from about 730 m3/s to more than 900 m3/s. At the same time, slight decreasing trends were observed for the Trent River (µ from 378 m3/s to 341 m3/s). The critical comparison of the MK test, ITA, and GEV distribution fitting revealed both agreements and discrepancies among the methods. While the analyses generally aligned in detecting significant trends in streamflow rates, notable discrepancies were observed, particularly in rivers with negligible trends. These inconsistencies highlight the complexity of hydrological responses and the limitations of individual methods. Overall, the study provides a comprehensive view of how streamflow dynamics are evolving in UK rivers, highlighting regional variations in the impact of climate change. This understanding can improve water resource management strategies by integrating diverse analytical approaches.

RESUMEN

Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) is valuable for assessing implant status. In a previous investigation, acetabular cup fixation was assessed using laser RFA and the pull-down force was predicted in an in vitro setting. While the pull-down force alone is sufficient for initial fixation evaluation, it is desirable to evaluate the bone strength of the foundation for subsequent fixation. Diminished bone quality causes micromotion, migration, and protracted osseointegration, consequently elevating susceptibility to periprosthetic fractures and failure of ingrained trabecular bone. Limited research exists on the evaluation of bone mineral density (BMD) around the cup using RFA. For in vivo application of laser RFA, we implemented the sweep pulse excitation method and engineered an innovative laser RFA device having low laser energy and small dimensions. We focused on a specific frequency range (2500-4500 Hz), where the peak frequency was presumed to be influenced by foundational density. Quantitative computed tomography with a phantom was employed to assess periprosthetic BMD. Correlation between the resonance frequency within the designated range and the density around the cup was evaluated both in the laboratory and in vivo using the novel laser RFA device. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed robust correlations in both experiments (laboratory study: R = 0.728, p < 0.001; in vivo study: R = 0.619, p < 0.001). Our laser RFA system can assess the quality of bone surrounding the cup. Laser RFA holds promise in predicting the risk of loosening and might aid in the decision-making process for additional fixation through screw insertion.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Depression is usually characterized by impairments in reward function, and shows altered motivation to reward in reinforcement learning. This study further explored whether task difficulty affects reinforcement learning in college students with and without depression symptom. METHODS: The depression symptom group (20) and the no depression symptom group (26) completed a probabilistic reward learning task with low, medium, and high difficulty levels, in which task the response bias to reward and the discriminability of reward were analyzed. Additionally, electrophysiological responses to reward and loss feedback were recorded and analyzed while they performed a simple gambling task. RESULTS: The depression symptom group showed more response bias to reward than the no depression symptom group when the task was easy and then exhibited more quickly decrease in response bias to reward as task difficulty increased. The no depression symptom group showed a decrease in response bias only in the high-difficulty condition. Further regression analyses showed that, the Feedback-related negativity (FRN) and theta oscillation could predict response bias change in the low-difficulty condition, the FRN and oscillations of theta and delta could predict response bias change in the medium and high-difficulty conditions. LIMITATIONS: The electrophysiological responses to loss and reward were not recorded in the same task as the reinforcement learning behaviors. CONCLUSIONS: College students with depression symptom are more sensitive to task difficulty during reinforcement learning. The FRN, and oscillations of theta and delta could predict reward leaning behavior.

RESUMEN

The study employed event-related potential (ERP), time-frequency analysis, and functional connectivity to comprehensively explore the influence of male's relative height on third-party punishment (TPP) and its underlying neural mechanism. The results found that punishment rate and transfer amount are significantly greater when the height of the third-party is lower than that of the recipient, suggesting that male's height disadvantage promotes TPP. Neural results found that the height disadvantage induced a smaller N1. The height disadvantage also evoked greater P300 amplitude, more theta power, and more alpha power. Furthermore, a significantly stronger wPLI between the rTPJ and the posterior parietal and a significantly stronger wPLI between the DLPFC and the posterior parietal were observed when third-party was at the height disadvantage. These results imply that the height disadvantage causes negative emotions and affects the fairness consideration in the early processing stage; the third-party evaluates the blame of violators and makes an appropriate punishment decision later. Our findings indicate that anger and reputation concern caused by height disadvantage promote TPP. The current study holds significance as it underscores the psychological importance of height in males, broadens the perspective on factors influencing TPP, validates the promoting effect of personal disadvantages on prosocial behavior, enriches our understanding of indirect reciprocity theory, and extends the application of the evolution theory of Napoleon complex.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: This clinical study investigates platelet-rich fibrin's (PRF) impact on dental implant stability, addressing global oral health challenges and limitations of traditional methods. Emphasizing osseointegration's pivotal role, the study explores PRF's potential in enhancing implant stability, assessing it through resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and implant stability quotient (ISQ). The hypothesis suggests PRF may improve both primary and secondary stability, aiming to uncover clinical benefits in dental implant procedures Materials and methods: The study involved 24 subjects from the Department of Periodontics outpatient clinics with a meticulously designed methodology. This included a pre-surgical protocol with oral prophylaxis, impressions, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) analysis. PRF preparation utilized a minimally invasive venipuncture technique. Implant placement followed a two-stage surgical protocol, assessing primary stability with MEGA ISQ (Ostell). Post-surgery, patients received instructions and underwent recall for secondary stability after three months. Clinical parameters such as plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), implant probing pocket depth (IPPD), sulcus bleeding index (SBI), and implant stability (IS) were systematically recorded. Robust statistical analyses, using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows v20.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, USA) software, incorporated Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests for group and within-time point comparisons, with a significance level of p<0.05. This comprehensive study yields nuanced insights into the impact of PRF and implant procedures on key clinical parameters, contributing significantly to the field. RESULTS: This study compared dental implants with and without PRF in 24 patients. Both groups showed significant improvements in the PI, GI, and SBI. The PRF group exhibited higher IS in the third and sixth months, while IPPD was lower in the PRF group in the sixth month. CONCLUSION: The findings of the study highlight a positive impact on implant stability contributing to better implant outcomes.

RESUMEN

Joint attention is an indispensable tool for daily communication. Abnormalities in joint attention may be a key reason underlying social impairment in schizophrenia spectrum disorders. In this study, we aimed to explore the attentional orientation mechanism related to schizotypal traits in a social situation. Here, we employed a Posner cueing paradigm with social attentional cues. Subjects needed to detect the location of a target that is cued by gaze and head orientation. The power in the theta frequency band was used to examine the attentional process in the schizophrenia spectrum. There were four main findings. First, a significant association was found between schizotypal traits and attention orientation in response to invalid gaze cues. Second, individuals with schizotypal traits exhibited significant activation of neural oscillations and synchrony in the theta band, which correlated with their schizotypal tendencies. Third, neural oscillations and synchrony demonstrated a synergistic effect during social tasks, particularly when processing gaze cues. Finally, the relationship between schizotypal traits and attention orientation was mediated by neural oscillations and synchrony in the theta frequency band. These findings deepen our understanding of the impact of theta activity in schizotypal traits on joint attention and offer new insights for future intervention strategies.

RESUMEN

Accurate detection of implant loosening is crucial for early intervention in total hip replacements, but current imaging methods lack sensitivity and specificity. Vibration methods, already successful in dentistry, represent a promising approach. In order to detect loosening of the total hip replacement, excitation and measurement should be performed intracorporeally to minimize the influence of soft tissue on damping of the signals. However, only implants with a single sensor intracorporeally integrated into the implant for detecting vibrations have been presented in the literature. Considering different mode shapes, the sensor's position on the implant is assumed to influence the signals. In the work at hand, the influence of the position of the sensor on the recording of the vibrations on the implant was investigated. For this purpose, a simplified test setup was created with a titanium rod implanted in a cylinder of artificial cancellous bone. Mechanical stimulation via an exciter attached to the rod was recorded by three accelerometers at varying positions along the titanium rod. Three states of peri-implant loosening within the bone stock were simulated by extracting the bone material around the titanium rod, and different markers were analyzed to distinguish between these states of loosening. In addition, a modal analysis was performed using the finite element method to analyze the mode shapes. Distinct differences in the signals recorded by the acceleration sensors within defects highlight the influence of sensor position on mode detection and natural frequencies. Thus, using multiple sensors could be advantageous in accurately detecting all modes and determining the implant loosening state more precisely.

RESUMEN

This paper proposes a novel method to estimate rainfall intensity by analyzing the sound of raindrops. An innovative device for collecting acoustic data was designed, capable of blocking ambient noise in rainy environments. The device was deployed in real rainfall conditions during both the monsoon season and non-monsoon season to record raindrop sounds. The collected raindrop sounds were divided into 1 s, 10 s, and 1 min intervals, and the performance of rainfall intensity estimation for each segment length was compared. First, the rainfall occurrence was determined based on four extracted frequency domain features (average of dB, frequency-weighted average of dB, standard deviation of dB, and highest frequency), followed by a quantitative estimation of the rainfall intensity for the periods in which rainfall occurred. The results indicated that the best estimation performance was achieved when using 10 s segments, corresponding to the following metrics: accuracy: 0.909, false alarm ratio: 0.099, critical success index: 0.753, precision: 0.901, recall: 0.821, and F1 score: 0.859 for rainfall occurrence classification; and root mean square error: 1.675 mm/h, R2: 0.798, and mean absolute error: 0.493 mm/h for quantitative rainfall intensity estimation. The proposed small and lightweight device is convenient to install and manage and is remarkably cost-effective compared with traditional rainfall observation equipment. Additionally, this compact rainfall acoustic collection device can facilitate the collection of detailed rainfall information over vast areas.

RESUMEN

Human Activity Recognition (HAR), alongside Ambient Assisted Living (AAL), are integral components of smart homes, sports, surveillance, and investigation activities. To recognize daily activities, researchers are focusing on lightweight, cost-effective, wearable sensor-based technologies as traditional vision-based technologies lack elderly privacy, a fundamental right of every human. However, it is challenging to extract potential features from 1D multi-sensor data. Thus, this research focuses on extracting distinguishable patterns and deep features from spectral images by time-frequency-domain analysis of 1D multi-sensor data. Wearable sensor data, particularly accelerator and gyroscope data, act as input signals of different daily activities, and provide potential information using time-frequency analysis. This potential time series information is mapped into spectral images through a process called use of 'scalograms', derived from the continuous wavelet transform. The deep activity features are extracted from the activity image using deep learning models such as CNN, MobileNetV3, ResNet, and GoogleNet and subsequently classified using a conventional classifier. To validate the proposed model, SisFall and PAMAP2 benchmark datasets are used. Based on the experimental results, this proposed model shows the optimal performance for activity recognition obtaining an accuracy of 98.4% for SisFall and 98.1% for PAMAP2, using Morlet as the mother wavelet with ResNet-101 and a softmax classifier, and outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms.

RESUMEN

Bridges may undergo structural vibration responses when exposed to seismic waves. An analysis of structural vibration characteristics is essential for evaluating the safety and stability of a bridge. In this paper, a signal time-frequency feature extraction method (NTFT-ESVD) integrating standard time-frequency transformation, singular value decomposition, and information entropy is proposed to analyze the vibration characteristics of structures under seismic excitation. First, the experiment simulates the response signal of the structure when exposed to seismic waves. The results of the time-frequency analysis indicate a maximum relative error of only 1% in frequency detection, and the maximum relative errors in amplitude and time parameters are 5.9% and 6%, respectively. These simulation results demonstrate the reliability of the NTFT-ESVD method in extracting the time-frequency characteristics of the signal and its suitability for analyzing the seismic response of the structure. Then, a real seismic wave event of the Su-Tong Yangtze River Bridge during the Hengchun earthquake in Taiwan (2006) is analyzed. The results show that the seismic waves only have a short-term impact on the bridge, with the maximum amplitude of the vibration response no greater than 1 cm, and the maximum vibration frequency no greater than 0.2 Hz in the three-dimensional direction, indicating that the earthquake in Hengchun will not have any serious impact on the stability and security of the Su-Tong Yangtze River Bridge. Additionally, the reliability of determining the arrival time of seismic waves by extracting the time-frequency information from structural vibration response signals is validated by comparing it with results from seismic stations (SSE/WHN/QZN) at similar epicenter distances published by the USGS. The results of the case study show that the combination of dynamic GNSS monitoring technology and time-frequency analysis can be used to analyze the impact of seismic waves on the bridge, which is of great help to the manager in assessing structural seismic damage.
