A Multi-Mode Rehabilitation Robot With Magnetorheological Actuators Based on Human Motion Intention Estimation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Lower extremity paralysis has become common in recent years, and robots have been developed to help patients recover from it. This paper presents such a robotic system that allows for two working modes, the robot-active mode and human-active mode. Th...

Rheological and Dielectric Behavior of 3D-Printable Chitosan/Graphene Oxide Hydrogels.

ACS biomaterials science & engineering
The effect of concentration, temperature, and the addition of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets on the rheological and dielectric behavior of chitosan (CS) solutions, which influences the formation of the blend materials for various applications includi...

Guava flavored whey-beverage processed by cold plasma: Physical characteristics, thermal behavior and microstructure.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The present study aimed to compare the physicochemical (pH), physical (rheology parameters and particle size), microstructure (optical microscopy) and thermal properties (differential scanning calorimetry) of guava flavored whey-beverages submitted t...

Development of a simple and objective evaluation method for thickened liquids using funnels.

Journal of texture studies
UNLABELLED: Some patients with dysphagia are prone to aspiration of low-viscosity liquids. Thickened liquids are often used in attempts to prevent aspiration. The patients should be given thickened liquids with suitable thickness, and the thickness s...

Multiparameter mechanical and morphometric screening of cells.

Scientific reports
We introduce a label-free method to rapidly phenotype and classify cells purely based on physical properties. We extract 15 biophysical parameters from cells as they deform in a microfluidic stretching flow field via high-speed microscopy and apply m...

First study of the evolution of the SeDeM expert system parameters based on percolation theory: Monitoring of their critical behavior.

European journal of pharmaceutics and biopharmaceutics : official journal of Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Pharmazeutische Verfahrenstechnik e.V
The deep understanding of products and processes has become a requirement for pharmaceutical industries to follow the Quality by Design principles promoted by the regulatory authorities. With this aim, SeDeM expert system was developed as a useful pr...

Bio-inspired flexible joints with passive feathering for robotic fish pectoral fins.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In this paper a novel flexible joint is proposed for robotic fish pectoral fins, which enables a swimming behavior emulating the fin motions of many aquatic animals. In particular, the pectoral fin operates primarily in the rowing mode, while undergo...

Fish-inspired robots: design, sensing, actuation, and autonomy--a review of research.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Underwater robot designs inspired by the behavior, physiology, and anatomy of fishes can provide enhanced maneuverability, stealth, and energy efficiency. Over the last two decades, robotics researchers have developed and reported a large variety of ...

Hydrodynamics of a robotic fish tail: effects of the caudal peduncle, fin ray motions and the flow speed.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Recent advances in understanding fish locomotion with robotic devices have included the use of biomimetic flapping based and fin undulatory locomotion based robots, treating two locomotions separately from each other. However, in most fish species, p...
