A peristaltic soft, wearable robot for compression and massage therapy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Soft robotics is attractive for wearable applications that require conformal interactions with the human body. Soft wearable robotic garments hold promise for supplying dynamic compression or massage therapies, such as are applied for disorders affecting lymphatic and blood circulation.

Enabling Massage Actions: An Interactive Parallel Robot with Compliant Joints [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We propose a parallel massage robot with compliant joints based on the series elastic actuator (SEA), offering a unified force-position control approach. First, the kinematic and static force models are established for obtaining the corresponding control variables.

Research progress on the neural circuit of pain emotion mediated by amygdala

open access: yesShanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao. Yixue ban, 2023
The occurrence of pain emotion is closely related to the functional and structural changes of specific central nervous circuit. When pain is accompanied by depression, anxiety, pain aversion memory and other emotional states, it activates or inhibits ...

Could Large CP Violation Be Detected at Colliders? [PDF]

open access: yesPhys.Lett.B317:454-461,1993, 1993
We argue that CP--violation effects below a few tenths of a percent are probably undetectable at hadron and electron colliders. Thus only operators whose contributions interfere with tree--level Standard Model amplitudes are detectable. We list these operators for Standard Model external particles and some two and three body final state reactions that ...

‘To give is better than to receive?’ Couples massage significantly benefits both partners’ wellbeing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This experimental study evaluated the differential effects of ‘giving’ and ‘receiving’ massage on wellbeing in healthy but stressed couples. Forty-two volunteers started the study and of these, 38 (i.e.

Machine Learning for Tangible Effects: Natural Language Processing for Uncovering the Illicit Massage Industry & Computer Vision for Tactile Sensing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
I explore two questions in this thesis: how can computer science be used to fight human trafficking? And how can computer vision create a sense of touch? I use natural language processing (NLP) to monitor the United States illicit massage industry (IMI), a multi-billion dollar industry that offers not just therapeutic massages but also commercial ...

Traces of a Quantum Anti-Resonance in a Driven System [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 53 (1996) 389, 1995
It has been previously shown, that classically chaotic kicked systems, whose unperturbed spectrum posseses one energy scale, admits a quantum anti-resonance (QAR) behavior. In this study we extend the conditions under which which this QAR occurs for the case of a two-sided kicked 1D infinite potential well.

Molecular‐Level Dual‐Ionophilic Passivation for High‐Areal‐Capacity Lithium Metal Anodes on Nanostructured Paper Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The effect of a molecular‐level dual‐ionophilic chitosan passivation layer is investigated on a nanostructured paper electrode featuring an interconnected network structure of highly oxygen‐functionalized single‐walled carbon nanotubes (C‐NPE). This molecular coating enabled a high Coulombic efficiency (>99.0%) and stable cycling over 350 cycles at an ...
