  • Design criteria of type IV body armor for women

    Creator:
    Tung, Tsun-Yin
    Abstract:
    The current body armor used by the military does not provide enough fit to women. Female soldiers are ordered to wear body armor that was not built to conform to their bodies. The inadequate body armor could bring more threats than safety to the wearers. Based on the facts that...

  • The effect of textiles on perceived physiological comfort while backpacking in the cold

    Creator:
    Rau, Lynn M.
    Abstract:
    Clothing is the primary means that wilderness backpackers have to protect themselves from injuries and illnesses that can occur while hiking in the cold. The current method of layering clothing may not meet backpackers' needs for both thermal insulation and heat dissipation, particularly in areas of the body that produce...

  • Analysis and design on low-power short-range radios for wireless body area networks

    Creator:
    Cheng, Jiao
    Abstract:
    The release of the IEEE802.15.6 standard has led to increased interest in low-power technologies for wireless body-area-networks (WBANs). The power dissipation, supply voltage, and die area are some of the most important criteria for successful WBAN implementations. Digital-intensive RX architectures can potentially result in sub-1V operation with significant reductions in...
