Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Using A 10x10 Sensor Matrix with Integrated Circuit Design for Pressure Control
Abstract: This project aims to create a system that generates energy using piezoelectric technology, designed as a rectangular tile platform. The platform has two layers of sensors arranged in a 10 × 10 grid, connected in a mix of series and parallel setups. The top layer acts as a surface for external forces, like footsteps, while springs connect the layers to control pressure and maximize energy generation. A rectifier ensures the …

Human Deep Skin Surface Vibration Frequency Detection from CT and DT Signals Using Genetic Algorithms
Abstract: To diagnose respiratory problems early on, a contactless, non-invasive, real-time assessment of human vibration is a crucial prerequisite. Optoelectronic plethysmography (OEP) and the forced oscillation technique (FOT), are two widely utilized methodologies, depending on variations in each patient’s local chest impedance. Calibration of the devices before each measurement is hence the primary problem of these approaches. This report presents a simulation-based analysis to assess the effectiveness of the CT and …

Holistic integrated approach of designing a satellite town: Introducing theories of environmental parameters like pollution free, circular economy and sustainability
Abstract: Urban regions are quite challenging to restore the quality of environment at the global level as well as posing serious threat to climatic changes. This fact is demonstrated on the grounds that around 70% of the carbon footprint is contributed from the urban sector. The authors of the present study have attempted to design a satellite town of population 50,000, partly to dilute the population density of main urban town …
