Data‐Driven Modeling of Forces Exerted by Pneumatic Actuators for a Pediatric Exosuit

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents the experimental analysis and data‐driven modeling of the interaction forces between soft pneumatic actuators designed to assist upper‐extremity motion in a pediatric exosuit and an engineered test rig, across different experimental conditions: (A) force profiling of shoulder actuators, with varying actuator anchoring points and ...

Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Limitation on the use of the horizontal clinostat as a gravity compensator [PDF]

If the horizontal clinostat effectively compensates for the influence of the gravity vector on the rotating plant, it makes the plant unresponsive to whatever chronic acceleration may be applied transverse to the axis of clinostat rotation.

A community‐driven approach to address substance use and create a Great Plains American Indian addiction and recovery research agenda

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Substance use, specifically opioid and methamphetamine use, is of increasing concern among American Indian (AI) populations in the Great Plains. This community‐driven participatory study investigated the impacts of substance use and community‐defined needs in treating addiction.

“Will you be there for me?” Social support from family and friends during cold case sexual assault prosecutions

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract If sexual assault survivors report the assault to the criminal legal system, they often need informal support from family and friends throughout the long and frequently retraumatizing process of investigation and prosecution. This study is part of a long‐term community‐based participatory action research project in a predominately Black ...

Methane Pyrolysis Performance in Catalytic Molten Media for Hydrogen Production From the Perspective of Bubble Column Reactor Design and Configuration

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the hydrogen production routes from natural gas (methane), methane pyrolysis offers a cleaner option than the established steam methane reforming by producing CO2‐free hydrogen. However, in fixed bed reactors over solid catalysts, this technology experiences rapid catalyst deactivation due to carbon (coke) deposition encapsulating its ...

Complexity Analysis of Bubble Plumes in Power Law Fluids Based on Chaos Theory

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In order to reveal the complexity of the internal flow of bubble plume in power law fluid, the flow characteristics and chaotic characteristics of plume are studied by experiment and theory. The chaotic characteristic parameters (correlation dimension D, K entropy, and Lyapunov exponent λ) of gas velocity under different superficial gas ...
