High vacuum and aspiration on phacoemulsification efficiency and chatter for Centurion.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie
OBJECTIVE: To compare relative efficiency and chatter of high aspiration and vacuum settings.

Design and Computational Modeling of a Modular, Compliant Robotic Assembly for Human Lumbar Unit and Spinal Cord Assistance.

Scientific reports
Wearable soft robotic systems are enabling safer human-robot interaction and are proving to be instrumental for biomedical rehabilitation. In this manuscript, we propose a novel, modular, wearable robotic device for human (lumbar) spine assistance th...

Octopus-like suction cups: from natural to artificial solutions.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Octopus suckers are able to attach to all nonporous surfaces and generate a very strong attachment force. The well-known attachment features of this animal result from the softness of the sucker tissues and the surface morphology of the portion of th...

Controllable surface haptics via particle jamming and pneumatics.

IEEE transactions on haptics
The combination of particle jamming and pneumatics allows the simultaneous control of shape and mechanical properties in a tactile display. A hollow silicone membrane is molded into an array of thin cells, each filled with coffee grounds such that ad...

[Optimization for vacuum belt drying process of Qibai Pingfei granule through response surface methodology].

Zhongguo Zhong yao za zhi = Zhongguo zhongyao zazhi = China journal of Chinese materia medica
Based on single factor tests,the optimum vacuum belt drying conditions of Qibai Pingfei granule were obtained through Box-Benhnken central combination design and RSM. In this study, drying time, drying temperature and extract density were chosen as i...

Mimicking Martian dust: An in-vacuum dust deposition system for testing the ultraviolet sensors on the Curiosity rover.

The Review of scientific instruments
We have designed and developed an in-vacuum dust deposition system specifically conceived to simulate and study the effect of accumulation of Martian dust on the electronic instruments of scientific planetary exploration missions. We have used this d...
