Design of ASIC Dedicated to Thermal Analysis of Many-Core Architectures

Szermer M., Kotynia L., Pietrzak P., Janicki M., Napieralski A., Technical University of Lodz, PL

The main goal of the paper is to present the design of an ASIC dedicated to thermal analysis of many-core architectures. Due to the fact that the process of designing real multi-core microprocessors is expensive [...]

Study on Application of Piezoelectric Vibration Energy Harvesters for Powering of Wireless Sensor Nodes in Large Rotary Machine Diagnostic Systems

Pekoslawski B., Pietrzak P., Makowski M., Szafoni L., Napieralski A., Technical University of Lodz, PL

A condition monitoring of large rotary machines such as turbogenerators in power plants can be more convenient and less expensive when using a distributed measurement system with wireless sensor nodes. A battery-based powering of these [...]

Adaptive Subband Filtering Method for MEMS Accelerometer Noise Reduction

Pietrzak P., Pekoslawski B., Makowski M., Napieralski A., Technical University of Lodz, PL

The main factor that determines the cost of vibration-based condition monitoring system of large rotating machines is the unitary price of the piezoelectric sensors, commonly used in such devices. Silicon microaccelerometers can be considered as [...]
