The electric field distribution is one of the main factors governing the long-term reliability of high voltage composite insulators. However, under severe pollution conditions, electric field stresses…
Powered air-purifying respirators (PAPR) are a high level of respiratory personal protective equipment. Like all mechanical devices, they are vulnerable to failure. The precise physiological consequen…
This commentary aims to address the field of social robots both in terms of the global situation and research perspectives. It has four polarities. First, it revisits the evolutions in robotics, which…
The COVID-19 pandemic is threatening billions of people's life all over the world. As of March 6, 2021, covid-19 has confirmed in 115,653,459 people worldwide. It has also a devastating effect on busi…
The recent digital revolution led robots to become integrated more than ever into different domains such as agricultural, medical, industrial, military, police (law enforcement), and logistics. Robots…
The aim of this systematic review is to identify recent digital technologies used to detect early signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in preschool children (i.e., up to six years of age). A …
Piezoelectric actuators are candidates for use in radioactive environments but specific radiation tests are necessary to understand the radiation effects on the whole actuator assembly. The results of…
For decades, human activities have gradually destroyed the natural habitats of wild grapevine, Vitis vinifera L. subsp. sylvestris (Gmelin) Hegi, and nowadays this species is endangered in southern Eu…
In this paper, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images acquired with a 64-element array transducer using a multistatic acquisition scheme are presented. The images are reconstructed from a collection o…
The human hand is considered as the highest example of dexterous system capable of interacting with different objects and adapting its manipulation abilities to them. The control of poliarticulated pr…
BACKGROUND: Robotic (RNS) or magnetic navigation systems (MNS) are available for remotely performed catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF).OBJECTIVE: The present study compares remotely assist…
The haemodynamic and autonomic nervous system effects of the DA2 agonist, SK & F 101468, have been studied in anaesthetised cats. SK & F 101468 inhibited the tachycardia response to cardiac accelerans…
The aim of the study was to analyse the data obtained from a 2-year follow-up study of middle-aged Finnish subjects (n = 183) with a previous history of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in order to el…
This article reports the experience of the design team of the Laboratory The Imaginary in the process of developing an electric potter's lathe which respects the biomechanics of the body, helps to dev…
The study described here explored a fully automatic segmentation approach based on texture analysis for breast lesions on ultrasound images. The proposed method involves two main stages: (i) In lesion…
A Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based fiber axial micro-displacement sensor was proposed. The MZI was constructed by a bowknot-type taper (BTT) combining with a fiber core-offset between two singl…
Sap flow measurements conducted with thermal dissipation probes (TDPs) are vulnerable to natural temperature gradient (NTG) bias. Few studies, however, attempted to explain the dynamics underlying the…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a personal-computer-based teleradiology system for the interpretation of radiologic studies from an isolated community.METHODS: During a 5-month study period, 240 radiologic stu…
BACKGROUND : Elevation of hepatic enzymes is associated with insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and obesity. However, the factors behind elevation of liver enzymes remain unclear. The aim of this study…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to compare the effects of progressive reducing assistance force versus full assistance force controlled robot-assisted gait training combined with conventional phys…
