Models of electrodes and contacts in molecular electronics [PDF]

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2005
Bridging the difference in atomic structure between experiments and theoretical calculations and exploring quantum confinement effects in thin electrodes (leads) are both important issues in molecular electronics. To address these issues, we report here, by using Au-benzenedithiol-Au as a model system, systematic investigations of different models for ...

Mouse Model of Irritant Contact Dermatitis

Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research, 2022
Background: Irritant contact dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by skin barrier dysfunction, eczematous dermatitis, and chronic itching. This disease severely affects the quality of life. Considering that the current treatment approaches are not ideal, more extensive research is needed to develop new treatments.

Estimation of Ground Reaction Forces during Sports Movements by Sensor Fusion from Inertial Measurement Units with 3D Forward Dynamics Model

Sensors
Rotational jumps are crucial techniques in sports competitions. Estimating ground reaction forces (GRFs), a constituting component of jumps, through a biomechanical model-based approach allows for analysis, even in environments where force plates or ...

Bridging the Gap in Neuroblastoma Care: Consensus‐Based Statements With Recommendations for Improved Patient and Caregiver Experiences

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma's complex, heterogeneous biology poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, often requiring caregivers to absorb complex information and participate in time‐sensitive decisions. However, caregivers often feel unprepared to evaluate options.

Learning inverse dynamics models with contacts [PDF]

2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015
— In whole-body control, joint torques and external forces need to be estimated accurately. In principle, this can be done through pervasive joint-torque sensing and accurate system identification. However, these sensors are expensive and may not be integrated in all links.

Study of a parabolic cylinder elastic-plastic contact model

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
Based on Hertz contact theory, two parabolic cylinder normal contact models are established. The effect of contact angle on normal approach, actual contact area, and normal contact stiffness are investigated, and the effect of the distance from the focus

Development and Implementation of a Disease‐Targeted Storybook as a Clinical Tool for Children With Acute Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although significant progress has been made in childhood leukemia survival, healthcare providers, and caregivers often face challenges in explaining this disease to patients. Disease‐targeted storybooks have been proposed as a tool to facilitate the understanding of diagnoses and treatment.

A microscopical model for electric‐mechanical contact [PDF]

PAMM, 2003
AbstractIn this paper a model to deal with electric‐mechanical contact problems in the framework of the FEM is presented. On the basis of some micro‐mechanical studies, a new approach is developed to define the non‐linear constitutive law that governs the normal force‐displacement behaviour and the electric resistance of the contacting surfaces.
