3D Neuro-electronic interface devices for neuromuscular control: Design studies and realisation steps [PDF]
In order to design the shape and dimensions of new 3D multi-microelectrode information transducers properly, i. e. adapted to the scale of information delivery to and from peripheral nerve fibres, a number of studies were, and still are, being performed ...

The scaling of postcranial muscles in cats (Felidae) I: forelimb, cervical, and thoracic muscles [PDF]
The body masses of cats (Mammalia, Carnivora, Felidae) span a ~300‐fold range from the smallest to largest species. Despite this range, felid musculoskeletal anatomy remains remarkably conservative, including the maintenance of a crouched limb posture at

Efficiency of endoneural stimulation with 5- to 24-fold multielectrodes [PDF]
Optimal selective stimulation of nerve with endoneurally (intrafascicularly) inserted multi-microelectrodes means that each electrode activates, with its own threshold stimulation current, as few distinct motoneurons as possible, preferably only one, If ...
