Design and motion control of a 6-UPS fully parallel robot for long bone fracture reduction : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Mechatronics at Massey University [PDF]
, 2007 The incidences of long bone fractures in New Zealand are approximately 1 in 10,000. Long bones such as tibia and femur have complicated anatomic structures, making the realignment of these long bone fractures reliant on the skill of the surgeon.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Parallel Robots in Construction [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (IAARC), 2005 Parallel robots have been in existence since the first half of the 20 century. Applications of parallel robots have ranged from tire testing machines to robots for performing surgery. The high load-to-weight ratio and high stiffness of parallel mechanisms sets them apart from more common serial robots.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Evaluation on Configuration Stiffness of Overconstrained 2R1T Parallel Mechanisms
Chinese Journal of Mechanical EngineeringCurrently, two rotations and one translation (2R1T) three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel mechanisms (PMs) are widely applied in five-DOF hybrid machining robots. However, there is a lack of an effective method to evaluate the configuration stiffness of
