Kinematic and gait similarities between crawling human infants and other quadruped mammals

Crawling on hands and knees is an early pattern of human infant locomotion, which offers an interesting way of studying quadrupedalism in one of its simplest form. We investigate how crawling human infants compare to other quadruped mammals, especially pri ...

Comparing the effect of different spine and leg designs for a small bounding quadruped robot

Auke Ijspeert, Alexander Spröwitz, Peter Eckert

We present Lynx-robot, a quadruped, modular, compliant machine. It alternately features a directly actuated, single-joint spine design, or an actively supported, passive compliant, multi-joint spine conﬁguration. Both spine con- ﬁgurations bend in the sagi ...

Single florescent nanodiamond in a three dimensional ABEL trap

Aleksandra Radenovic, Metin Kayci

Three dimensional single particle trapping and manipulation is an outstanding challenge in various fields ranging from basic physics to life sciences. By monitoring the response of a trapped particle to a designed environment one can extract its characteri ...

Experimental validation of a bio-inspired controller for dynamic walking with a humanoid robot

Auke Ijspeert, Jesse van den Kieboom, Nicolas Benoît Dominique Van der Noot, Luca Colasanto

Bipedal walking with humanoid robots requires efficient real-time control. Nowadays, most bipedal robots require to ensure local stability at every instant in time, preventing them from achieving the impressive human walking skills. At the same time, bio-i ...

Sediment Evacuation from Reservoirs through Intakes by Jet-Induced Flow

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Jolanda Maria Isabella Jenzer Althaus

Reservoir sedimentation is considered as a sustainability problem. A concept getting down to the root of the cause was developed and tested in laboratory experiments. The idea is to maintain sediment in suspension, i.e., avoiding its settling near the dam ...

Performance of the LHCb Vertex Locator

Jian Wang, Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Mark Tobin, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Reto Frei

The Vertex Locator (VELO) is a silicon microstrip detector that surrounds the proton-proton interaction region in the LHCb experiment. The performance of the detector during the first years of its physics operation is reviewed. The system is operated in va ...

Sagittal plane blocade in patients with Functional Hallux Limitus:a multisegment model analysis of the Flexor Hallucis Longus endoscopic tenolysis

Kamiar Aminian, Hossein Rouhani, Arash Arami

Functional Hallux Limitus (FHL) is a relatively unknown clinical entity in which dorsal flexion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is restricted during final stance phase, derailing the three mechanisms of foot stabilization 1. The close packing of the ...
