Three-dimensional evaluation of the transverse rotator cuff muscle's resultant force angle in relation to scapulohumeral subluxation and glenoid vault morphology in nonpathological shoulders

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Patrick Goetti, Pezhman Eghbalishamsabadi, Matthieu Boubat

Background: Static posterior subluxation of the humeral head (SPSH) results in glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Treatment strategies for SPSH with or without resulting osteoarthritis remain challenging. There is growing interest in evaluating the rotator cuff ...

RC U-shaped walls subjected to in-plane, diagonal, and torsional loading: New experimental findings

Katrin Beyer

Although reinforced concrete U-shaped walls are popular in construction practice internationally, there is a paucity of experimental research investigating the seismic performance of such salient elements. The present paper summarizes an experimental campa ...

Analysis and Transfer of Human Movement Manipulability in Industry-like Activities

Sylvain Calinon, Noémie Laure Gwendoline Jaquier

Humans exhibit outstanding learning, planning and adaptation capabilities while performing different types of industrial tasks. Given some knowledge about the task requirements, humans are able to plan their limbs motion in anticipation of the execution of ...

Radial-Force-Based Swirling Actuator with Surface-Permanent-Magnet Structure for Low-Speed High-Torque Applications

Adrien Jean-Michel Thabuis

This paper proposes a swirling actuator that utilizes the electromagnetic radial force and a swirling gear to generate rotational torque. This actuator converts the swirling motion to the rotational motion and is suitable for low-speed high-torque applicat ...

Designing a virtual whole body tactile sensor suit for a simulated humanoid robot using inverse dynamics

Auke Ijspeert, Salman Faraji

In this paper, we propose a novel architecture to estimate external forces applied to a compliantly controlled balancing robot in simulations. We use similar dynamics equations used in the controller to find mismatches in the available sensory data and ass ...

Thermo-Hydrodynamics in a Closed Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe

Giulia Spinato

Pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) represent a promising solution for passive on-chip, two-phase cooling of micro-electronics, providing advantages such as a simple construction and operation in any gravitational orientation. Unfortunately, the unique coupling of ...

A reconfigurable, tendon-based haptic interface for research into human-environment interactions

Joachim von Zitzewitz

Human reaction to external stimuli can be investigated in a comprehensive way by using a versatile virtual-reality setup involving multiple display technologies. It is apparent that versatility remains a main challenge when human reactions are examined thr ...

Gravity-driven slug motion in capillary tubes

Dani Or, Ivan Lunati

The velocity of a liquid slug falling in a capillary tube is lower than predicted for Poiseuille flow due to presence of menisci, whose shapes are determined by the complex interplay of capillary, viscous, and gravitational forces. Due to the presence of m ...

Young's law and the effects of interfacial energy on the pressure at the solid-fluid interface

Ivan Lunati

In a recent paper [R. Finn, Phys. Fluids 18, 047102 (2006)] the attention has been drawn on the tension component perpendicular to the solid surface that results from Young's law. Considering the problem of a solid sphere floating in zero gravity, it has b ...
