Download or read book Signals and Systems in Biomedical Engineering Physiological Systems Modeling and Signal Processing written by Suresh R. Devasahayam and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physiology is a set of processes that maintain homeostasis, and physiological measurement is a means of observing these processes. Systems theory and signal processing offer formal tools for the study of processes and measured quantities. This book shows that systems modeling can be used to develop simulations of physiological systems, which use formal relations between the underlying processes and the observed measurements. The inverse of such relations suggest signal processing tools that can be applied to interpret experimental data. Both signal processing and systems modeling are invaluable in the study of human physiology. Discussing signal processing techniques ranging from filtering and spectrum analysis to wavelet analysis, the book uses graphs and analogies to supplement the mathematics and make the book more accessible to physiologists and more interesting to engineers. Physiological systems modeling helps in both gaining insight and generating methods of analysis. This book shows how numerical computation with graphical display, haptics and multimedia can be used to simulate physiological systems. In this third edition the simulations are more closely related to clinical examination and experimental physiology than in previous editions. Detailed models of nerve and muscle at the cellular and systemic levels, and simplified models of cardiovascular blood flow provide examples for the mathematical methods and computer simulations. Several of the models are sufficiently sophisticated to be of value in understanding real world issues like neuromuscular disease. The book features expanded problem sets and a link to extra downloadable material containing simulation programs that are solutions to the theory developed in the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuroergonomics can be defined as the study of brain and behavior at work. It combines two disciplines--neuroscience, the study of brain function, and human factors, the study of how to match technology with the capabilities and limitations of people so they can work effectively and safely. The goal of merging these two fields is to use the startling discoveries of human brain and physiological functioning both to inform the design of technologies in the workplace and home, and to provide new training methods that enhance performance, expand capabilities, and opitimize the fit between people and technology. Research in the area of neuroergonomics has blossomed in recent years with the emergence of noninvasive techniques for monitoring human brain function that cna be used to study various aspects of human behavior in relation to technology and work, including mental workload, visual attention, working memory, motor control, human-automation interaction, and adaptive automation. This volume will provide the first systematic overview of this emerging area, describing the theoretical background, basic research, major methods, as well as the new and future areas of application. This collection will benefit a number of readers: the experienced researcher investigating related questions in human factors and cognitive neuroscience, the student wishing to get a rapid but systematic overview of the field, and the designer interested in novel approaches and new ideas for application. Researchers in human factors and ergonomics, neuroscience, cognitive psychology, medicine, industrial engineering, and computer science will find this volume most helpful.

This book was released on 1964 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was made of the central nervous system from an information processing point of view. The study entailed a review and critical analysis of several hundred references, and involved a considerable amount of recasting and reorganization of existing knowledge into the terms and concepts of engineering, with particular reference to potential bionic applications. The study was selective rather than comprehensive. The neural coding problem was first examined, the history of efforts dealing with this problem was reviewed, and a mathematical representation of neural signals (neurograms) and neural operators was formulated. The processing of data by the visual system was then described, with particular reference to form, color, and movement detection, the temporal continuity of visual objects, image fixation, automatic focusing control, intensity control, image fusion, depth perception, and the stabilization of visual space. Next, the neural control of movement was analyzed from a servo-mechanical viewpoint. The unit biomechanical control system was defined, and the cortico-spinal command of this unit system was discussed. The cerebellar coordination and extrapyramidal stabilization of sequences and combinations of biomechanical control unit actions was examined.
