Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).

Human-Machine Interaction: A Vision-Based Approach for Controlling a Robotic Hand Through Human Hand Movements

open access: yesTechnologies
An anthropomorphic robot is a mechanical device designed to perform human-like tasks, such as manipulating objects, and has been one of the significant contributions in robotics over the past 60 years.

The Usage and Evaluation of Anthropomorphic Form in Robot Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
There are numerous examples illustrating the application of human shape in everyday products. Usage of anthropomorphic form has long been a basic design strategy, particularly in the design of intelligent service robots.

Using humanoid robots to study human behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Our understanding of human behavior advances as our humanoid robotics work progresses-and vice versa. This team's work focuses on trajectory formation and planning, learning from demonstration, oculomotor control and interactive behaviors.

AI Epistemic Disengagement and Consumer Dependence: An Augmentation‐Substitution Framework

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence has become consumers' primary decision‐making resource, raising two questions: how do consumers justify accepting AI as a trusted source of reasoning, and when does this acceptance maintain rather than forfeit their capacity to think independently?

From 0D to 3D liquid crystal elastomers architectures: Fabrications and applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review presents a dimension‐oriented overview of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), highlighting their molecular alignment, fabrication strategies, and programmable deformations from 0D particles to 3D architectures. Emphasis is placed on how dimensionality guides design principles, enables diverse actuation modes, and bridges fundamental ...

Learning Trajectories for Constructing Mechanistic Explanations and the Role Played by Epistemic Knowledge

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Explaining scientific phenomena by unpacking their underlying mechanisms poses many challenges for high‐school students. One central challenge is synthesizing the different parts of a mechanism into a coherent whole and identifying what information is still missing, or whether further learning is required.

Influence of frictions on gait optimization of a biped robot with an anthropomorphic knee [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents the energy consumption of a biped robot with a new modelled structure of knees which is called rolling knee (RK). The dynamic model, the actuators and the friction coefficients of the gear box are known. The optimal energy consumption
