Sinus Anatomy. INTRODUCTION. The paranasal sinuses (âthe sinusesâ) are air-filled cavities located within the bones of the face and around the nasal cavity and eyes. Each sinus is named for the bone in which it is located: Physiology.The pink membranes lining the sinuses make mucus that is cleared out of the sinus cavities and drains into the nasal passage. The right and left nasal passages are separated in the middle by a vertical plate of cartilage and bone called the nasal septum (figures 1 and 2).ach sinus is named for the bone in which it is located: Physiology. The pink membranes lining the sinuses make mucus that is cleared out of the sinus cavities and drains into the nasal passage.

The objective of this experiment was to confirm that the frequency spectrum of an electromyography (EMG) signal shifts to lower frequencies as a muscle, under voluntary contraction, fatigues.ne example of such an application is the use of a biomechanical prosthetic. If the device could detect muscle fatigue before failure, it could take action to compensate. Using the mean EMG frequency as a fatigue index is one way that could be accomplished.
