...Mary Grace Cassar; Cristiana Sebu; Michael Pidcock; Shubham Chandak; Brian Andrews Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the design of skin surface electrodes for functional electrical stimulation using an isotropic single layered model of the skin and underlying tissue. A concentric...

...Damir Cavka; Dragan Poljak Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose a fast, accurate and efficient algorithm for assessment of input impedance and consequently the evaluation of transient impedance of the grounding electrode. Design/methodology/approach – The mathematical model...

... to carcinomas. Besides its mechanical application, SEMS can be regarded as well as potential electrode for performing RF ablation therapy on the tumor. The purpose of this work is to perform numerical and experimental analyses in order to characterize the lesion volume induced in biological tissue using...
