A new method for vital sign detection using FMCW radar based on random body motion cancellation
In this study, we present a new method for acquiring human vital signs using a Range-Doppler matrix (RDM) of FMCW radar data and a Gaussian interpolation algorithm (GIA). First, the RDM is derived by applying a two-dimensional fast Fourier transform (2D-FFT) to the radar data, and the GIA is applied in the Doppler dimension to estimate the target velocity signal. Subsequently, a robust enhanced trend filtering (RETF) algorithm is used to eliminate the large-scale body motion from the vital signs. Finally, the time-varying filter-based empirical mode decomposition (TVF-EMD) algorithm is employed to extract the respiratory a...

Biomechanical effects of inclined implant shoulder design in all-on-four treatment concept: a three-dimensional finite element analysis
CONCLUSIONS: All evaluated components of the simulated treatment except for posterior abutment bodies showed better biomechanical behaviour with inclined shoulder design. The clinical success of all-on-four treatment maybe enhanced by using posterior implants with an inclined shoulder design.PMID:37283247 | DOI:10.1515/bmt-2023-0002 (Source: Biomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering)
