The analysis and simulation of the human thermoregulatory control system
The paper describes a study into one aspect of the thermoregulatory control system in man. An analysis of this control system led to the hypothesis that thermoregulation in humans is achieved by two basic cont...

Measurement of heart-rate variability: Part 1—Comparative study of heart-rate variability analysis methods
A definition of heart-rate variability (h.r.v.) is given. The use of h.r.v. measurement in both clinical applications and the neural cardiovascular research is discussed. For the latter applications, four diff...

Measurement of heart-rate variability: Part 2-hardware digital device for the assessment of heart-rate variability
Part 1 of the paper was dedicated to some general aspects of h.r.v. measurements. In Part 2, the spectral properties of the integral pulse frequency modulator (i.p.f.m.) are shown. The choice of a hardware dev...

Matching techniques for clinical models of the circulation
Several models of the circulation have been developed in physiological research. Such models can be matched to patient measurements and then used as a clinical diagnostic tool. We have examined methods for mat...

Raster-scan method for observing physiological entrainment phenomena
A simple raster-scan display, using a small interactive microcomputer with graphics capability, is described and gives visual indication of various entrainment-type phenomena. In particular, almostentrainment ...

Comparison of computer models of the human arterial system for the assessment of clinical data
Arterial pressure and flow measurements can be analysed using a mathematical model of the circulation. A comparison of four models of the circulation used in this way is presented. The results indicate some cr...

Biomedical signal processing (in four parts)
This is the third in a series of four tutorial papers on biomedical signal processing and concerns the estimation of the power spectrum (PS) and coherence function (CF) od biomedical data. The PS is introduced...

Object-based three-dimensional X-ray imaging
A form of three-dimensional X-ray imaging, called Object 3-D, is introduced, where the relevant subject material is represented as discrete ‘objects’. The surface of each such object is derived accurately from...

Transient phase locking patterns among respiration, heart rate and blood pressure during cardiorespiratory synchronisation in humans
The interactions between respiration, heart rate and blood pressure variability (HRV, BPV), are considered to be of paramount importance for the study of the functional organisation of the autonomic nervous sy...
