Streamlining COM-B model: Insights from the Healthy Eating Context

Appetite
The global rise in diet-related diseases highlights the urgent need for effective behavioural interventions. While theoretical frameworks like the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation-Behaviour (COM-B) model are valuable for understanding and influencing healthy eating behaviours, their practical application is often hindered by complexity and extensive

Multi-contact Walking Pattern Generation based on Model Preview Control of 3D COM Accelerations [PDF]

, 2016
We present a multi-contact walking pattern generator based on preview-control of the 3D acceleration of the center of mass (COM). A key point in the design of our algorithm is the calculation of contact-stability constraints.

Raman spectra of BN-nanotubes: Ab-initio and bond-polarizability model calculations [PDF]

, 2005
We present it ab-initio calculations of the non-resonant Raman spectra of zigzag and armchair BN nanotubes. In comparison, we implement a generalized bond-polarizability model where the parameters are extracted from first-principles calculations of the ...
