In this paper, the spectral characteristics of motion artifacts occurring in an ambulatory ECG signal have been studied using principal component analysis (PCA). The PCA residual errors characterize the spectral behavior of the motion artifacts occurring in ambulatory ECG signals. The ECG signals have been acquired from Biopac MP-36 system and a self-developed wearable ECG recorder. The performance is evaluated by power spectral density (PSD) plots of PCA residual errors as well as statistical parameters like mean, median and variance of PCA errors. The PSD plots clearly indicate that the peak frequency of the motion artifacts occurring due to various body movements (like left and right arms up–down, left and right legs up–down, waist twist, walking and sitting up–down) is located around 20–25 Hz against the ECG peak frequency around 5–10 Hz.

The relation between the cutaneous electrogastrogram (EGG) and gastric emptying was investigated in six rhesus monkeys. Gastric emptying was measured using scintigraphy after administration of two 80-ml mixed solid liquid meals (1.5 and 5.0 kcal/kg) tagged with 99mTc-sulfur colloid and 111In-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid. Six epigastric bipolar recordings of the EGG were concurrently obtained, digitized, and band-pass filtered. Portions of the signal with motion artifacts were automatically detected and excluded using two microwave motion sensors. During the early postprandial period, gastric emptying was greater after the 1.5-kcal/kg meal than after the 5-kcal/kg meal, and EGG amplitude increased significantly compared with fasting only after the 1.5-kcal/kg meal. Both emptying and EGG amplitude subsequently decreased after the 1.5-kcal/kg meal, whereas these two parameters increased after the 5-kcal/kg meal. As a result, EGG amplitude was significantly correlated with gastric emptying of solids in all six animals. In contrast, EGG frequency was not significantly different between the two meals and was not correlated with emptying. These results indicate that both the EGG and gastric emptying are modified differently by meals with different caloric contents and that the EGG may represent a useful, although indirect, index of gastric emptying.

The presence in operation of many prototypes of UAVs with propeller propellers, the use of such devices at relatively low altitudes and flight speeds makes the problem of noise reduction from UAVs urgent both from the point of view of acoustic imperceptibility and ecology.The aim of the work is to determine a set of methods that help to reduce the visibility of UAVs in the acoustic range. It is shown that the main source of noise from the UAV on the ground is the power plant, which includes the engine and the propeller. The parameters of the power plants influencing the processes that determine the acoustic signature of the UAV were investigated. A comprehensive analysis of the factors affecting visibility was carried out. The power plants include two-stroke and four-stroke engines, internal combustion and two-blade propellers. The use of silencers on the exhaust of the internal combustion engine was considered. The spectral characteristics of the acoustic fields of the propeller-driven power plants for the operating sample of the UAV "Eco" were obtained. The measurements were carried out in one-third octave and 1/48 octave frequency bands under static conditions. The venue is the KhAI airfield. Note that the propellers that were part of the power plants operated at Reynolds numbers (Re0,75<2*105), which can significantly affect its aerodynamic and acoustic characteristics. It is shown that when choosing a UAV control system, one should take into account the fact that two-stroke piston engines are the dominant source in the noise of propeller-driven control systems in the absence of a hood and mufflers in the intake and exhaust tracts. The use of a four-stroke internal combustion engine significantly reduces the noise of the control system. In the general case, the position of the boundaries of the zone of acoustic visibility of a UAV at the location of the observer is determined by the ratio between the intensity of acoustic radiation perceived by the observer from the UAV and the intensity of sound corresponding to the natural acoustic background and depends on the degree of manifestation of acoustic effects accompanying the propagation of sound in a turbulent atmosphere - the refraction of sound waves. Absorption and dissipation of acoustic energy. The calculation and comparison of the UAV detection range was carried out taking into account the existing natural maskers.The results of experimental studies are presented that allow assessing the degree of acoustic signature of the UAV. A set of measures aimed at reducing the intensity of the acoustic signature of the UAV in various regions of the radiation spectrum has been determined.

The article describes the structure and the operation principle of the spectrophotometer developed on the basis of a compact rapid monochromator with one input port and two output ports and a radiometric unit where upwelling radiation radiance and sea surface irradiance channels are located. A new approach to measurements of spectral characteristics of upwelling radiation of sea based on combination of advantages of a double beam photometer with a photomultiplier and a directreading photometer with a highstability silicon photodiode for its absolute adjustment in energy units is implemented.

Abstract The scattering of plane steady-state sound waves from a viscous fluid-filled thin cylindrical shell weak- ened by a long linear slit and submerged in an ideal fluid is studied. For the description of vibrations of elastic objects the Kirchhoff-Love shell-theory approximation is used. An exact solution of this problem is obtained in the form of series with cylindrical harmonics. The numerical analysis is carried out for a steel shell filled with oil and immersed in seawater. The modules and phases of the scattering amplitudes versus the dimensionless wavenumber of the incident sound wave as well as directivity patterns of the scattered field are investigated taking into consideration the orientation of the slit on the elastic shell surface. The plots obtained show a considerable influence of the slit and viscous fluid filler on the diffraction process.
