Vortex induced vibration energy harvesting using magnetically coupled broadband circular-array piezoelectric patch: Modelling, parametric study, and experiments
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Piezoelectric composites have become increasingly important in energy harvesting from vibration and, more recently, flow-induced vibration. The compatibility of piezoelectric devices has allowed tuning harvesters to the ...
Performance of artificial intelligence models in estimating blood glucose level among diabetic patients using non-invasive wearable device data
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is characterized by impaired ability to metabolize glucose for use in cells for energy, resulting in high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). DM impacted 463 million individuals worldwide in ...
