bending of waves around small obstacles and the spreading out of waves past small openings. Similar effects occur when a light wave travels through a medium with a varying refractive index‚ or a sound wave travels through one with varying acoustic impedance. Diffraction occurs with all waves‚ including sound waves‚ water waves‚ and electromagnetic waves such as visible light‚ X-rays and radio waves. As physical objects have wave-like properties (at the atomic level)‚ diffraction also occurs with matter

ABSTRACT: Transmission or distribution of 5o Hz or 60 Hz electrical energy from the generating point to the consumers’ end without any physical wire has yet to as a familiar and viable technology. This paper focuses on the past and future possible advancements in WPT and explaining why it has still not come into practical utility. Wireless energy transfer has been around for about a century‚ but as of yet has only found usage in things like electric toothbrush rechargers and specialty applications

The Beatles Influence on Rock-and-Roll Katelyn Geluso MUH 405OL Prof. Gleason November 21‚ 2010 Abstract: The Beatles are one of the most innovative rock bands of all time. They have not only changed the way rock and roll is looked at‚ but also the way that the music is recorded. They have influenced the artists of the 60s and the 70s‚ and also many generations later and to come. Originating from Liverpool‚ England‚ the Beatles‚ or the Fab Four‚ consists of Paul McCartney‚ John Lennon

Humidity Sensors Humidity Humidity is defined as the water vapor content in air or other gases. Humidity is usually measured in terms of absolute humidity (the ratio of the mass of water vapor to the volume of air or gas)‚ dew point (the temperature and pressure at which a gas begins to condense into a liquid)‚ and relative humidity‚ or RH (the ratio of the moisture content of air compared to the saturated moisture level at the same temperature or pressure). Thermal conductivity humidity sensors

Extraction of SSVEP Signals of a Capacitive EEG Helmet for Human Machine Interface Abstract— The use of capacitive electrodes for measuring EEG eliminates the preparation procedure known from classical noninvasive EEG measurements. The insulated interface to the brain signals in combination with steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) enables a zero prep human machine interface triggered by brain signals. This paper presents a 28channel EEG helmet system based on our capacitive electrodes

are different methods to measuring ones body mass index with the more common methods being height to weight ratio measurement‚ waist to hip ratio measurement‚ skin fold tests‚ and bioelectrical impedance measurement. For most of these references BMI’s were calculated between a mixture of bioelectrical impedance and skin fold measurement tests. A person should have a BMI of 18.5 to 24.99 be considered “normal” (World Health Organization‚ 2010). Once a BMI reaches 30 or greater the individual is classified
