Investigating the Use of Virtual Reality Headsets for Postural Control Assessment: An Instrument Validation Study
(JMIR Publications, 2020-10-11)Accurately measuring postural sway is an important part of balance assessment and rehabilitation. Although force plates give accurate measurements, their costs and space requirements make their use impractical in many ... -
Characterization and Biomimetic Fabrication Study of Fetal Membranes for Understanding and Prevention of Preterm Birth
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-25)Preterm birth is defined as a baby being born before 37 weeks gestation and is a large problem, affecting 10% of all pregnancies in the United States and world annually. Preterm birth can result in lifelong complications ... -
Functional Connectivity Analysis of Visually Evoked ERPs for Mild Cognitive Impairment
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-28)Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered as the early stage of Alzheimer’s disease, characterized as mild memory loss. Using electroencephalogram (EEG) data, a novel method of functional connectivity (FC) analysis can ... -
Experimental Studies of Flow-Structure Interactions in Blast/Shock-Driven Complex Flows
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-29)Blast waves, which are generated by the sudden energy release in a finite space, are encountered in various situations. As the blast/shock waves propagate, any object in its path can be damaged by the combination of ... -
Increasing Creative Output by Visually Enhancing Engineering Design Tools
(East Carolina University, 2022-05-02)Innovation does not come about by random chance but is intentionally cultivated by the efforts of a designer. Many strategies exist for approaching design, ranging from the instinctual and intuitive to the more technical ...
