The search for non-invasive and accessible markers of cardiovascular function has driven the exploration of innovative technologies, with photoplethysmography (PPG) emerging as a promising tool. Traditionally used for detecting pulse and oxygen saturation, PPG waveforms also contain valuable information about blood circulation. This single-subject, retrospective signal analysis aimed to investigate the correlation between a set of novel PPG-derived Blood Flow Indices (BFIs) and the occurrence of Premature Ventricular Complexes (PVCs).

Link to the paperThe cost of deep underground mine cooling depends on a number of geological, environmental and economic factors such as the temperature gradient in the mine, the outside air temperature, and the local price of energy. While geological factors, being static, can be controlled to some extent during the mine design, the environmental and economic factors...

Link to the paperAbandoned mines are often associated with enduring liabilities, which involve significant costs for decades after the decommissioning of the mine. Using a decommissioned mine as a geothermal resource can offset the environmental costs by supplying green heat to the communities living in and around the mine area.

Link to the paperComminution processes such as crushing and grinding are essential stages in mining and mineral processing operations to reduce the size of ore and rock, and to liberate the valuable mineral for beneficiation. Comminution is energy-intensive and responsible for most of the energy used during mineral recovery.
