Precision control for a flexible body representation
Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2022 Adaptive body representation requires the continuous integration of multisensory inputs within a flexible 'body model' in the brain. The present review evaluates the idea that this flexibility is augmented by the contextual modulation of sensory processing 'top-down'; which can be described as precision control within predictive coding formulations of ...

Advanced modelling of flexible multibody systems using virtual bodies
Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023 When new formulations for the description of flexible multibody systems are proposed, often they imply the use of new sets of generalized coordinates, even if the finite element method is used to describe the system flexibility.

An unusual tracheal foreign body residing for 15 years: A case report and review of literature
Respirology Case Reports, 2022 Airway foreign bodies are common in children, and usually present as emergencies. However, they may sometimes present late, due to a number of reasons. Chronic lodgement of foreign bodies in trachea is rarer than that in bronchial tree.

Modeling of parallel manipulators with flexible links and joints driven by electric actuators
Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2022 This paper presents the approach of building a mathematical model for a parallel robotic manipulator with flexible links and elastic joints. The links to the base are assumed to be rigid bodies, and the thin connecting rods are assumed to be flexible ...

Graph-Theoretic Approach for the Dynamic Simulation of Flexible Multibody Systems
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2012 This paper provides a general description of a variational graph-theoretic formulation for simulation of flexible multibody systems (FMSs) which includes a brief review of linear graph principles required to formulate this algorithm.

Foreign body removal by flexible bronchoscopy using retrieval basket in children
Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2018 OBJECTIVES: Aspiration of foreign bodies into the tracheobronchial tree is a common accident in children. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and outcome of foreign body removal by flexible bronchoscopy using a retrieval basket in children.

Coupled motion analysis of tether with time-varying length and rigid bodies
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017 In this paper, we discuss the motion of a tethered system during winding a tether in microgravity. When the tether is being wound, it comes into strong contact with the feeding section of the system.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
