• Abstract

  The prevention and prompt correction of faults are of paramount importance in the operation of critical systems such as medical equipments, aircrafts, chemical plants and nuclear reactors. Apart from possible environmental impacts and safety of the operators and users, the improvements on reliability and ready management of possible system faults can yield reduced operational costs, limit…

• Abstract

  This study addresses to study different path planning methods applied to Robocup F-180 robots. For this type of robot, an important problem is the path planning, i.e., to define paths so that the robot can move on the soccer field avoiding collisions with other obstacles. The literature for this problem provides many algorithms that can be used for this purpose. We intend to study these a…

• Abstract

  Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in the clinical practice and one of the main causes of cerebrovascular accident. It is known that the pulmonary veins (PVs) are involved in the beginning and maintenance of AF, and that the isolation of the PVs (PVI) through radiofrequency catether ablation is efficient in the treatment of paroxystic AF. However, the…

• Abstract

  Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia found in the clinical practice and is one of the main causes of stroke. It is known that the pulmonary veins (PVs) participate in AF initiation and perpetuation, and the PV isolation (PVI) performed by radiofrequency catheter ablation is effective in the therapy of the paroxysmal form of AF. PVI, however, is insufficient for…

• Abstract

  Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia found in the clinical practice and is one of the main causes of stroke. The pulmonary veins (PVs) participate in AF initiation and perpetuation, and the PV isolation (PVI) performed by radiofrequency catheter ablation is effective in the therapy of the paroxysmal form of AF. PVI, however, is insufficient for persistent AF (p…
