PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between an external estimate of training load obtained from a wearable accelerometer device and perceived training load in women’s volleyball. METHODS: Participants of this study were thirteen NCAA Division I women’s volleyball players (Age: 20.3±1.2 y, height: 174.9±7.9cm, body mass: 68.1±12.7 kg). A wearable accelerometer device (Catapult Sports, MiniMaxX S4) was used to estimate external training load during volleyball practice sessions.

Abstract:

Over the past decade vehicle judder caused by Disc Thickness Variation (DTV) has become of major concern to automobile manufacturers worldwide. Judder is usually perceived by the driver as minor to severe vibrations transferred through the chassis during braking [1-9]. In this research, DTV is investigated via the use of a Smart Brake Pad (SBP). The SBP is a tool that will enable engineers to better understand the processes which occur in the harsh and confined environment that exists between the brake pad and disc whilst braking. It is also a tool that will enable engineers to

This dissertation deals with the solution of three inverse problems in structural mechanics. The first one is load updating for finite element models (FEMs). A least squares fitting is used to identify the load parameters. The basic studies are made for geometrically linear and nonlinear FEMs of beams or frames by using a four-noded curved beam element, which, for a given precision, may significantly solve the ill-posed problem by reducing the overall number of degrees of freedom (DOF) of the system, especially the number of the unknown variables to obtain an overdetermined system.

Routing in sensor networks is a challenging issue due to inherent constraints such as power, memory, and CPU processing capabilities. In this thesis, we assume an All to All communication mode in an N × N grid sensor network. We explore routing algorithms which load balance the network without compromising the shortest paths constrain. We analyzed the Servetto method and studied two routing strategies, namely Horizontal-Vertical routing and Zigzag routing. The problem is divided into two scenarios, one being the static case (without failed nodes), and the other being the dynamic case (with fai

Abstract:

A typical sensor network is conceived as being a very large collection of low-powered, homogeneous nodes that remain static post-deployment and forward sensed data to a single sink via multi-hop communication. For these types of networks there is an inherent funnelling effect whereby the nodes that can communicate directly with the sink must collectively forward the traffic of the entire network and therefore these nodes use more energy than the other nodes. This is known as the energy hole problem because after some time, these nodes deplete their batteries and leave an energy hole cutting th

Abstract:

An indirect tire pressure monitoring system uses the wheel rolling radius as an indicator of low tire pressure. When extra load is put in the trunk of a car, the load distribution in the car will change. This will affect the rolling radius which in its turn will be confused with a change in the tire pressure. To avoid this phenomenon, the load distribution has to be estimated. In this thesis methods for estimating the pitch angle of a car and an offset in the pitch angle caused by changed load distribution are presented and when an estimate is derived, a load distribution can be derived.

Previous studies with field measurements of wind pressure acting on the roof edge reported that metal flashings experienced negative pressure.

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>電子工程系<br>106<br>Fall is one of the most common injury incident reported in hospitals and nursing home. Most of falls occur when the patients or elderly try to get off the bed after they wake up. Because of the shortage of staff and resources, nurses cannot always provide the assistance in time. As a result, it is common for patients and elderly to fall off the bed due to being alone in these places. In this research, we present a bed exit behavior recognition and prediction system. The system comprises four load cell sensors installed under the legs of bed with stands. Lo

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>資訊工程學研究所<br>97<br>Opportunistic routing has been widely approved because of its throughput improvement for wireless mesh networks; however, few researches focus on transforming its benefit into realizing energy efficiency for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We notice that two common issues in fixed-path routing schemes, including single-path routing or multi-path routing, are that (1) a path may traverse through a fixed set of sensors, draining out their energy, and (2) packet retransmission over an unreliable link of any fixed-path may consume energy significantly.

There are several studies on tracking inhabitants in all kinds of environments, such as RF-ID tags or Image-detection. Those approaches sometimes require the inhabitants to wear some devices or need much pre-calibration before tracking the inhabitants. Such approaches make the inhabitants feel uncomfortable while the purpose is trying to provide convenient s

Abstract:

This work focuses on water content detection both in materials and in gases, i.e., measurements of moisture and humidity. To detect the moisture, a cavity perturbation method (CPM) is introduced to extract the relationship between permittivity and water content in material under test (MUT), which, in this application is tobacco at a single frequency. The obtained information is used as pre-knowledge for a mass flow sensor design in tobacco production. The mass flow sensor is an open cylindrical resonator that consists of two circular waveguides with different diameters. An on-sight test of th

Abstract:

碩士<br>臺灣大學<br>機械工程學研究所<br>96<br>During routine overhaul, the axial force and torque in each valve stem in a nuclear power plant need to be monitored. Currently, pre-formed gages on a thin metal strip are used for this purpose. These gages are expensive and cannot last until the next overhaul. The current work attempts to fabricate similar gage that are ready for field use. The detailed requirements to ensure good accuracy during fabrication are analyzed. Practical gages have been manufactured and tested. The measured results agreed well with theoretical and experimented strain measured by stic

Abstract:

To better manage deteriorating infrastructure, quantitative data about the performance of infrastructure assets is required. Rayleigh based distributed fibre optic strain sensing (FOS) is a technology that has the potential to offer this type of data and unlike traditional strain sensors it can measure the strain along the full length of the structure. A series of experiments were undertaken to develop installation techniques and evaluate sensor accuracy for typical civil engineering materials: steel, concrete and reinforced concrete. The results of these experiments showed that the choice

The introduction of the use of Tire Pressure Control Systems (TPCS) to improve the productivity of the Canadian trucking industry is gaining momentum. The imposition of seasonal load restrictions (SLR) on the thaw-weakened secondary roads interrupts the transportation of raw materials to processing facilities For the forestry industry in particular, this has very significant impacts on productivity and costs. FPInnovations-Feric Division (Feric) has investigated the potential for TPCS-equipped trucks to travel with full, legal loading during the SLR period without accelerating road wear and te

Since each wireless node has limited communication range, packets are generally delivered hop by hop, at the expense of power consumption, towards the intended destinations. However, when any intermediate node on a path has depleted its power, i.e., a hole emerges, packet delivery fails and subsequently another new route must be resolved, so as to restore packet transfer. Therefore, a well-planned routing strategy that avoids ineff

In WSN, some nodes become bottleneck because of encountering excessive data flow. So how to balance the load of network becomes the key of design WSN routing protocol. To achieve load balancing and reduce network bottleneck in data-intensive WSN, we propose Load Balancing Routing (LBR) protocol for WSN. LBR is based on layer routing design to connect sensor nodes and SINK. LBR c
