Implant electrode optimisation and neurolinguistics

The benefit provided by additional electrodes in medical implants is currently unknown. A typical cochlear implant only contains 12-22 electrodes to stimulate about 30,000 more...

Subdivided electrodes to improve defibrillators and physiological measurements

Current defibrillators and physiological monitors (EEG, ECG etc) are limited by variations in contact impedance. This makes measurements difficult during movement of the subjec more...

Demand-side Power Network Control

Modern power systems much achieve efficiencies in capital expenses for networks by smoothing out peak power demands at the same time as more renewable generation is being used. This more...

Graph-based Methods in Power Networks Analysis, Optimisation and Control

The analysis tools for power networks assume that the network is either a transmission or a distribution network. These days with distributed generation, demand-side control, storag more...
