Evaluation of fatigue progression during overhead tasks and the effects of exoskeleton assistance
Wearable TechnologiesUpper-limb occupational exoskeletons reduce injuries during overhead work. Previous studies focused on muscle activation with and without exoskeletons, but their impact on shoulder fatigue remains unclear.

Improved COI taxonomic assignment workflow enhances detection of invertebrates in environmental DNA
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly popular and powerful tool in ecology, offering a non‐invasive method to assess biodiversity and monitor ecosystem health across diverse environments. While the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is one of the most widely used markers for studying eukaryotic ...

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.Chewable softgels are a patient‐preferred alternative to conventional oral forms, offering pleasant taste, fast onset, and suitability for children or patients with swallowing difficulties. However, they present relevant challenges in their formulation: the shell must balance chewability, machinability, and stability, while the fill must mask the ...

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Worldwide, artificial intelligence‐driven technologies, including robotics and autonomous systems (RAS), are adopted to address manpower shortages in long‐term care. However, their effective use requires a reasonable degree of policy capacity across individual‐, organisational‐ and system‐levels.

A Multistage Hemiplegic Lower-Limb Rehabilitation Robot: Design and Gait Trajectory Planning
SensorsMost lower limb rehabilitation robots are limited to specific training postures to adapt to stroke patients in multiple stages of recovery. In addition, there is a lack of attention to the switching functions of the training side, including left, right ...

PM&R, EarlyView.Abstract Background Previous studies on microprocessor‐controlled prosthetic knees (MPKs) often investigate benefits of MPKs as a class of knees rather than clinically relevant differences between specific knees, despite their distinct features. Objectives To systematically evaluate and report outcomes associated with three commercially available MPKs ...

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rare earth elements (REEs) play an irreplaceable role in modern technology and industry. However, due to the highly similar physicochemical properties among REEs, their separation remains a significant challenge. Additionally, REEs often exist in low‐concentration solutions, making efficient REE recovery an urgent task.

Integration of advanced teleoperation technologies for control of space robots [PDF]
Teleoperated robots require one or more humans to control actuators, mechanisms, and other robot equipment given feedback from onboard sensors. To accomplish this task, the human or humans require some form of control station.
