Superluminal optical pulse propagation in nonlinear coherent media [PDF]
The propagation of light-pulse with negative group-velocity in a nonlinear medium is studied theoretically. We show that the necessary conditions for these effects to be observable are realized in a three-level $\Lambda$-system interacting with a ...

A review of machine learning techniques in photoplethysmography for the non-invasive cuff-less measurement of blood pressure [PDF]
Hypertension or high blood pressure is a leading cause of death throughout the world and a critical factor for increasing the risk of serious diseases, including cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart failure.

Possibilities of using the ultrasonic wave transmission method to estimate initial setting time of cement paste [PDF]
In this paper, the applicability of the ultrasonic wave transmission method to estimate the initial setting time of an arbitrary cement paste is discussed. Ultrasonic pulse velocity measurements were fully automated and measured continuously.

Comparison of arterial stiffness indices measured by pulse wave velocity and pulse wave analysis
Objective: Arterial stiffness indices measured by pulse wave velocity and pulse wave analysis have been widely studied in different populations. Only a few small studies have been reported regarding these two measurement methods.

Difficulties in the measurement of pulse-wave velocity [PDF]
The methods employed in the measuring of pulse-wave velocity are subject to gross error because of alinearity and frequency distortion resulting from low-resonance frequencies of instrumentation and arterial segment and extraneous tissue interference.
