Venous and Arterial Responses to Partial Gravity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Introduction: Chronic exposure to the weightlessness-induced cephalad fluid shift is hypothesized to be a primary contributor to the development of spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS) and may be associated with an increased risk of venous

Lipid Signalling in Human Immune Response and Bone Remodelling under Microgravity

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Since the first Apollo mission in 1969, microgravity has been linked to many alterations of astronauts’ physiology, among which immunosuppression, altered inflammation and bone loss represent relevant examples.

Reveal Non‐Uniform Passivation on Lithium Metal Anode With Operando Spectroscopic Ellipsometry

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
In‐operando spectroscopic ellipsometry reveals how nucleation and crystallographic orientation govern the non‐uniform growth of native passivation films on lithium metal. Time‐resolved thickness mapping captures island formation and coalescence, while orientation‐dependent measurements show that the equilibrium film on Li(110) is approximately half as ...

Spatial Updating Depends on Gravity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2020
As we move through an environment the positions of surrounding objects relative to our body constantly change. Maintaining orientation requires spatial updating, the continuous monitoring of self-motion cues to update external locations.

Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

Acute and short-term fluctuations in gravity are associated with changes in circulatory plasma protein levels

open access: yesnpj Microgravity
Gravitational changes between micro- and hypergravity cause several adaptations and alterations in the human body. Besides muscular atrophy and immune system impairment, effects on the circulatory system have been described, which can be associated with ...

Altitude Control in an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Through Deflection of Elevator

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
This paper investigates altitude control of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) through the elevator. Elevators are flight control surfaces, which control lateral altitude by changing the pitch balance.

Cineradiographic Analysis of Mouse Postural Response to Alteration of Gravity and Jerk (Gravity Deceleration Rate)

open access: yesLife, 2014
The ability to maintain the body relative to the external environment is important for adaptation to altered gravity. However, the physiological limits for adaptation or the disruption of body orientation are not known.
