It is examined whether this amplitude-modulation following response (AMFR), with modulation frequencies near 40 Hz, can be used to estimate frequency-specific hearing thresholds by two methods: (1) decreasing sound intensity until the AMFR could no longer be evoked and (2) linearly extrapolating the amplitude-intensity function to a zero volt response. Both methods yielded estimates that were within 15 dB of the behavioral threshold. A method that could identify bilateral sensitivity differences of about 20 dB was also developed. This involved comparing AMFRs to binaural SAM tones when their envelopes were in- or out-of-phase. Threshold estimates suggest that the AMFR may be an effective tool for assessing hearing thresholds across the audiometric range of frequencies.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131718892","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 was accomplished once an optimum value of sensitivity adjustment was determined. It was found that a value of approximately 100 k Omega for the sensitivity resistor allowed minimal force (less than 100 g) to cause appreciable change in the output of the sensor's amplifier circuitry. Preliminary results with FSRs indicate that they are an effective means of monitoring finger and palm pressure during perception threshold testing. Initial modeling studies of the amplifier with the FSR indicate that a linear relationship exists between sensor resistance and output voltage for a large range of pressures.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130166376","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}

To elucidate the role of laminin and other basement membrane components in axonal growth and guidance, a systematic analysis of the effects of these various molecules on outgrowth characteristics such as the rate and direction of growth is required. Ideal parameters for measuring these characteristics appear to be the root-mean-square speed, s, and the directional persistence time, P, of the growing axon tip. These quantities were measured for neurons obtained from the superior cervical ganglia of one day-old neonatal rats, mechanically dissociated into single cells and cultured in serum-free medium. To illustrate the potential effects of the observed concentration dependence of these parameters on axonal outgrowth, the ability of an axon to traverse a laminin substrate was examined using a hypothetical model for the axon trajectory based on the measured s and P.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130856239","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 system should reason on the basis of specific cases and groups of cases, and should therefore be able to cite specific precedents (including precedents that are themselves incompletely understood), to modify its behavior on the basis of every new information-providing transaction, and to subsume the functions of a conventional information-retrieval system.

The Hall effect magnetic field detector was designed as an exposure assessment instrument that can provide the information needed to accurately conduct these epidemiologic studies. Though fields generated by high voltage transmission lines seem to be the focus of much public concern, many common household appliances are sources of potentially high magnetic fields as well. Magnetic field measurements of some appliances were recorded. By using three orthogonally mounted analog Hall sensors and analog computation circuits, field measurements in gauss are expressed in terms of RMS voltage.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134348705","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}

Although laborious, 3-D reconstruction provides information and insight on lung structure not available through other means.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"295 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120897946","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}

Circular averaging over the sections as well as the generation of quantitative graphical data are presented. This technique provides a very quick quantitative analysis of the material properties of an unprocessed section of bone.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"279 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123151143","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 cruciate ligaments were modeled as a crossed four bar linkage. The mathematical model uses a series of vector loops and scalar equations to solve for all linkage parameters. The model requires 11 equations to solve for 11 unknowns. The equations were driven with a linkage angle that is directly related to the flexion angle. The model was used to examine the effect of various geometric parameters on the roll and slip between the articulating surfaces of the medial condyle. A geometric computer model was developed to verify the results.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123184691","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 analysis of preliminary data obtained from actimeter tests indicate that the system is approximately 75% accurate. Error associated with the system was due to the undergarment suit, mercury sensors, and sampling rate. The accuracy will increase with improvements to the present system. It is concluded that the actimeter system will provide vocational rehabilitation counselors with information to enhance their evaluation process.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":434209,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1991 IEEE Seventeenth Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115672082","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}
