Analysis of EEG Signal for Brain Computer Interface
Abstract: Brain-computer interface (BCI) frameworks causes a subject to issue commands to an electronic device just by methods for brain activity. EEG has wide applications in the brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. Sadly, the spatial resolution of EEG is very low, because of the volume conduction. While measuring signals related to motor movements various artefacts also get added. We have studied pre-processing techniques and classification techniques which improve performance. While there are …

Rotating Detonation Engines: Future of Rocket Propulsion
Abstract: Almost all of the rocket engines in use today are chemical rockets. These engines have high thrust to weight ratio, but they have very low specific impulse and use of heavier chemicals leads to a reduced exhaust velocity and higher emissions. Even though alternative fuels have been used, the mass of propellant required remains an issue. Therefore, methods that can replace chemical propulsion have been researched and developed, like electric …
