Technological progress has significantly contributed to high-quality, on-time, acceptable and affordable healthcare. Since their appearance, nanotechnology and the Internet of Nano Things (IoNT) have continuously affected healthcare and have a tremendous influence on its transformation, contributing to the better outcome. The inclusion of nanotechnology in medicine through nanomaterials and nanodevices, known as nanomedicine, has brought numerous benefits in disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Going further by connecting nanodevices to the Internet, the IoNT paradigm has been created. The inclusion of IoNT concepts in healthcare has resulted in more personalized, timely, and convenient health monitoring and treatment. Hence, nanotechnology and the IoNT hold the potential to completely revolutionize healthcare in the 21st Century, creating a system that will enable early disease detection and diagnosis followed by accurate, on-time and effective treatment with significantly reduced healthcare costs. This paper presents the roles of nanotechnology and IoNT in medicine and healthcare, and attempts to gain an insight of nanoscale solutions and approaches, highlighting benefits and discussing potential risks and concerns. Despite concerns regarding nanotoxicity, privacy and security issues, it is anticipated that nanotechnology and IoNT will show their full potential in medicine and healthcare in the years to come.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42619253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For such purposes, the micro-fabrication process consists in transferring a pre-defined design onto the substrate made of a glass microscope slide. This is known as patterning, which is a technique that can also be used in transferring specific designs that allows region of interest (ROI) recovery under the microscope. In those cases, two main challenges appear: 1) Disturbances in light transmission should remain minimum to keep the high quality of observation of the object of interest under the microscope. 2) The pattern-size should then be small enough but, however, larger than the diffraction limit to be observable satisfactorily for positioning purposes. In this article, we present the procedures involved in the microfabrication of Pseudo-Periodic Patterns (PPP) encrypting the absolute position of an extended area. Those patterns are embedded in Petri dishes in order to allow the high-accurate retrieval of absolute position and orientation. The presented microfabrication is based in a technique known as lift-off, which after parameter adjustment, allows the obtaining of PPP fulfilling the two previously mentioned requirements. The results report on PPP realized on glass microscope slides and composed by 2µm side dots made of aluminum with a thickness of 30nm.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46789226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of this, vibration signals are commonly monitored as part of a non-invasive approach to ICE analysis. However, vibration-based ICE monitoring poses a challenge due to the properties of this kind of signals. They are highly dynamic and non-stationary, let alone the diverse sources involved in the combustion process. In this paper, we propose a feature relevance estimation strategy for vibration-based ICE analysis. Our approach is divided into three main stages: signal decomposition using an Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition algorithm, multi-domain parameter estimation from time and frequency representations, and a supervised feature selection based on the Relief-F technique. Accordingly, we decomposed the vibration signals by using self-adaptive analysis to represent nonlinear and non-stationary time series. Afterwards, time and frequency-based parameters were calculated to code complex and/or non-stationary dynamics. Subsequently, we computed a relevance vector index to measure the contribution of each multi-domain feature to the discrimination of different fuel blend estimation/diagnosis categories for ICE. In particular, we worked with an ICE dataset collected from fuel blends under normal and fault scenarios at different engine speeds to test our approach. Our classification results presented nearly 98% of accuracy after using a k-Nearest Neighbors machine. They reveal the way our approach identifies a relevant subset of features for ICE condition monitoring. One of the benefits is the reduced number of parameters.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43863205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The efficiency is measured using three parameters: quality factors of recovered images, memory saving percentage achieved, and number of multiplexed images in the package. Theta modulation techniques are applied, to process an N number of gray level images, by using a virtual-optical 2f architecture, from which we obtain a complex package M, to be stored as two images, amplitude and phase, in commercial formats. We apply pixel optimization and Fourier plane filtering to amplitude and phase images, respectively, storing only a percentage of the Fourier plane with a pixel dynamic range optimization. The stored package spends much less memory than individual images. The recovered images after the demultiplexing process are compared with the original ones by using correlation coefficient, obtaining high quality factors for decompressed images. We perform simulations, showing the efficiency of the proposed process, and our results are compared to the same factors reported in recent publications, making our improvements evident.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43322430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research is focused to correlate Vickers Hardness to drilling resistance by a hard-tipped drill-bit on alumina, alumina-zirconia-silica (AZS) and alumina-chromite refractories bricks. Alumina and AZS bricks were manufactured by electromelting process leading to obtain highly densified microstructures, while alumina-chromite bricks were manufactured by pressing and sintering which conducts to lower densification and particles cohesion within the bricks microstructure. Alumina and AZS refractories measured hardness is 1506.00 ± 99.71 HV1,5N (15.10 ± 0.90 GPa) and 1028.00 ± 95.49HV2,7N (10.30 ± 0.90 GPa) respectively, which is in contrast with the low measured hardness on alumina-chromite bricks of 54.00 ± 2.00 HV50N (0.54 ± 0.02 GPa) despite of the high hardness of alumina and chromite used as feedstock maybe due to a low cohesion between the particles. Drilling resistance results showed a well-fitted behavior regarding the measured Vickers hardness then the drilling resistance test is useful to predict the hardness of highly densified as well as of friable ceramic materials.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44852158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A partir del modelo de estados no lineal, se definen los puntos de operacion donde el sistema funcionara y se aplica la tecnica de linealizacion por no linealidad sectorial con el fin de implementar reguladores lineales locales. Con los modelos linealizados reducidos y con base en las caracteristicas dinamicas deseadas de lazo cerrado, se disenan los reguladores locales que, al ser combinados, usando las funciones de pertenencia del modelo difuso, generan la senal de control global que contiene dos terminos: el regulador y el seguimiento simple de la referencia.El controlador difuso propuesto logra llevar el pendulo desde su posicion de equilibrio natural a la posicion invertida de forma gradual, con oscilaciones de amplitud creciente y con minimo error de seguimiento. Cuando el pendulo alcanza la posicion deseada invertida, se usa un regulador sobre el modelo linealizado completo alrededor del punto de operacion. Los resultados de simulacion muestran el seguimiento de la trayectoria angular (del pendulo) y el desempeno del controlador ante pequenas perturbaciones. La senal de control y la velocidad angular de la rueda son presentadas con el fin de verificar que se mantienen dentro de los limites de operacion establecidos. Si bien se presenta saturacion en la senal de control, se obtiene un error de seguimiento menor a 0,22 radianes. EnglishIn this work, the design of a Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy controller with a trajectorytracking scheme for the reaction wheel pendulum is presented. By using the nonlinear state-space model, the system’s operating points are defined, then, the sector nonlinearity method is applied to obtain a linearized model of the system in order to implement linear local regulators. Once the reduced linearized models are obtained, and based on the desired closed loop response, local regulators are designed to generate the global control signal. This signal comprises two terms: The regulator and the reference tracking term. The proposed Fuzzy controller allows the pendulum to reach the upright position from its natural state by swinging it up with minimum tracking error. Once the upright position is reached, a regulator is implemented to operate over the linearized model around the operating point (i.e., upright position). Simulation results present both, the tracking of the angular trajectory and the controller behavior during small perturbations. It is shown that the control signal and the wheel speed remain within their boundaries. Although the control signal saturates, a tracking error less than 0.22 radians is observed.","PeriodicalId":30469,"journal":{"name":"TecnoLogicas","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46293757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
