SPLAI: Computational Finite Element Model for Sensor Networks

Abstract

Wireless sensor network refers to a group of sensors, linked by a wireless medium to perform distributed sensing task. The primary interest is their capability in monitoring the physical environment through the deployment of numerous tiny, intelligent, wireless networked sensor nodes. Our interest consists of a sensor network, which includes a few specialized nodes called processing elements that can perform some limited computational capabilities. In this paper, we propose a model called SPLAI that allows the network to compute a finite element problem where the processing elements are modeled as the nodes in the linear triangular approximation problem. Our model also considers the case of some failures of the sensors. A simulation model to visualize this network has been developed using C++ on the Windows environment.

Design and Voluntary Motion Intention Estimation of a Novel Wearable Full-Body Flexible Exoskeleton Robot

“…The exoskeleton robot must determine the wearer's moving intention accurately and quickly due to its close link with the wearer. Recent advances in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have led to the rapid development of microsensors [3,4]. Correlations among the data representing an event are usually reflected in multiple measurements at different locations [5,6].…”
