Durability and reliability assessment is a key aspect of new product development. The focus of this paper is to assess the durability of the electrical joint of a PV product by examining its fatigue life under cyclic temperature excursions experienced throughout the product life cycle. An in progress method is presented for product life prediction as function of its deployment location. The life prediction...
The widespread adoption of minimally invasive surgical techniques have driven the need for 3D intra-operative image guidance. Hence the 3D pose estimation (position and orientation) performed through the registration of pre-operatively prepared 3D anatomical data to intra-operative 2D fluoroscopy images is one of the main research areas of image guided orthopedic surgery. The goal of this 2D-3D registration...
Visualization of the patient-specific fractured bone in three dimensions (3D) plays an important role in image guided orthopedic surgery. Existing research often focuses on intra-operative registration of the patientspsila anatomy with pre-operatively obtained 3D volumetric data (e.g. CT scans) utilizing fiduciary markers. This expensive and invasive approach is not routinely available for diagnostics,...
Three dimensional (3D) visualization of anatomy plays an important role in image guided orthopedic surgery and ultimately motivates minimally invasive procedures. However, direct 3D imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) are restricted to a minority of complex orthopedic procedures. Thus the diagnostics and planning of many interventions still rely on two dimensional (2D) radiographic...
In this paper, a circuit augmentation technique for broadband modeling of component libraries, and tuning of multilayer, embedded RF passive circuits has been presented. The circuit augmentation technique is based on a circuit partitioning technique, modified nodal analysis and a linear optimization framework. The "physical" circuit augmentation algorithm that has been implemented in this...
