An Optimal Control Formulation of Tool Affordance Applied to Impact Tasks

Sylvain Calinon

Humans use tools to complete impact-aware tasks, such as hammering a nail or playing tennis. The postures adopted to use these tools can significantly influence the performance of these tasks, where the force or velocity of the hand holding a tool plays a ...

The Dimension of the Body in Higher Education: Matrix of Meanings in Students’ Diaries

Simon Nessim Henein, Ramiro Tau

In this paper, we attempt to show some consequences of bringing the body back into higher education, through the use of performing arts in the curricular context of scientific programs. We start by arguing that dominant traditions in higher education repro ...

Design using randomness: a new dimension for metallurgy

William Curtin

High entropy alloys add a new dimension, atomic-scale randomness and the associated scale-dependent composition fluctuations, to the traditional metallurgical axes of time-temperature-composition-microstructure. Alloy performance is controlled by the energ ...

Impact of axions on confinement in three and two dimensions

In this paper we discuss well-known three- and two-dimensional models with confinement, namely, the Polyakov compact electrodynamics in 3D and two-dimensional CP(N-1) sigma model, and reveal changes in the confining regimes of these models upon adding the ...

Tunneling conductivity in anisotropic nanofiber composites: a percolation-based model

Claudio Grimaldi

The critical path approximation ('CPA') is integrated with a lattice-based approach to percolation to provide a model for conductivity in nanofiber-based composites. Our treatment incorporates a recent estimate for the anisotropy in tunneling-based conduct ...

The two dimensions of the body representation in women suffering from Anorexia Nervosa

Andrea Serino

A core symptom of Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is a severe alteration of body representations. Evidence from somatoperception studies point to a generic disturbances of somatosensory components of body representations. Here we have investigated whether AN patient ...

Excluded Volume Effects on Semiflexible Ring Polymers

Giovanni Dietler, Guillaume Witz

Two-dimensional semiflexible polymer rings are studied both by imaging circular DNA adsorbed on a mica surface and by Monte Carlo simulations of phantom polymers as well as of polymers with finite thickness. Comparison of size and shape of the different mo ...

Running the gauntlet: an overview of the modalities of travel employed by the putative morphogen Nodal

Daniel Constam

A fundamental challenge in biology is to explain how progenitor cells in developing tissues acquire distinct fates according to their position. In vertebrates, the positional information that specifies the germ layers and the primary body axes is mediated ...

Perturbation rejection control strategy for OWL

Ljubisa Miskovic

The control system of the ESO 100 m telescope (OWL) has to reject slow and fast perturbations in several subsystems. In this paper we focus on the wind rejection control strategies for two subsystems: the main axes and the segmented mirror. It is shown tha ...

Orion MinAngle: A flexure-based, double-tilting parallel kinematics for ultra-high precision applications requiring high angles of rotation

Reymond Clavel

If you need to design ultra-high precision devices for mechanisms with multiple axes there are not a lot of ways leading around flexure-based joints. Using this type of articulations totally eliminates backlash and friction and is, by this, providing an ac ...

Digital position and velocity determination in controlled drive systems

Motion control of robotic or manipulator joints, tool machines axes or more genrally of drive systems require accurate position, velocity and possibly acceleration control. Today, these controls are almost always realized using digital controllers. Therefo ...
