Using magneto-inertial-measurement-units to track upper-limb movement during rehabilitation (2020)
Thesis
Al-ani, A. Using magneto-inertial-measurement-units to track upper-limb movement during rehabilitation. (Thesis). University of Salford

Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) can be used to support upper-limb rehabilitation after a stroke. A key aspect of FES control and also patient monitoring is the automatic tracking of upper-limb motion during intensive and functional practise o...

The effects of biochar on trace element and nutrient solubility in the presence of low-molecular-weight organic acids (2020)
Thesis
Heaney, N. The effects of biochar on trace element and nutrient solubility in the presence of low-molecular-weight organic acids. (Thesis). University of Salford

Low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) secreted by plant roots play an essential role in regulating the phytoavailability of soil-borne trace elements and nutrients. Biochar is widely considered as a suitable soil remediation option, having show...

Ontology-based context-aware model for event processing in an IoT environment (2020)
Thesis
Al lahham, A. Ontology-based context-aware model for event processing in an IoT environment. (Thesis). University of Salford

The Internet of Things (IoT) is more and more becoming one of the fundamental sources of data. The observations produced by these sources are made accessible with heterogeneous vocabularies, models and data formats. The heterogeneity factor in such a...
