    Abstract
    Dynamic increasing amplitude and period (DIAP) [1] is a time-domain analysis methodology developed based on endurance time (ET) analysis method [2], which can be used to evaluate the response of marine structures when encounters a continuous loading, such as storm conditions. In this method, instead of using separate records with different intensities, a single loading record with an increasing intensity over time is used for structural analysis. The ability to enter spectral concepts, considering the effects of waves with different frequencies and amplitudes, taking into account the effects of randomness of waves and the possibility of short duration analysis are some of the specific...

    Abstract
    Goal: Continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring can provide invaluable information about individuals' health conditions. However, BP is conventionally measured using inconvenient cuff-based instruments, which prevents continuous BP monitoring. This paper presents an efficient algorithm, based on the pulse arrival time (PAT), for the continuous and cuffless estimation of the systolic BP, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) values. Methods: The proposed framework estimates the BP values through processing vital signals and extracting two types of features, which are based on either physiological parameters or whole-based representation of vital signals. Finally,...
