Energetic and Peak Power Advantages of Series Elastic Actuators in an Actuated Prosthetic Leg for Walking and Running

open access: yesActuators, 2014
A monoarticular series elastic actuator (SEA) reduces energetic and peak power requirements compared to a direct drive (DD) in active prosthetic ankle-foot design. Simulation studies have shown that similar advantages are possible for the knee joint. The

The acute effect of whole-body vibration on cycling peak power output [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of the present study was to determine if an acute bout of whole-body vibration (WBV) prior to sprint cycling would increase peak power output.

Design, Optimization and Energetic Evaluation of an Efficient Fully Powered Ankle-Foot Prosthesis With a Series Elastic Actuator

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
The use of powered ankle-foot prostheses for below-knee amputees leads to challenges like the peak power of the applied actuator and biomechanical features of the prosthesis foot.

A Multi-Moded RF Delay Line Distribution System for the Next Linear Collider

open access: yes, 2002
The Delay Line Distribution System (DLDS) is an alternative to conventional pulse compression, which enhances the peak power of rf sources while matching the long pulse of those sources to the shorter filling time of accelerator structures. We present an

Optimal Bandwidth and Power Allocation for Sum Ergodic Capacity under Fading Channels in Cognitive Radio Networks

open access: yes, 2010
This paper studies optimal bandwidth and power allocation in a cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) share the licensed spectrum of a primary user (PU) under fading channels using the frequency division multiple access scheme.

Sprinting After Having Sprinted: Prior High-Intensity Stochastic Cycling Impairs the Winning Strike for Gold

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Bunch riding in closed circuit cycling courses and some track cycling events are often typified by highly variable power output and a maximal sprint to the finish. How criterium style race demands affect final sprint performance however, is unclear.

EMG Analysis of Concurrent Activation Potentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose: This study evaluated the effect of remote voluntary contractions (RVC) on concentric isokinetic knee extensor and flexor peak torque, rate of torque development, power, and work, the activation of the affected muscles, and gender differences ...

On the statistical interpretation of optical rogue waves

open access: yes, 2010
Numerical simulations are used to discuss various aspects of "optical rogue wave" statistics observed in noise-driven fiber supercontinuum generation associated with highly incoherent spectra.

Evaluation of safe exposure time for two-photon microscopy imaging of acrylic-painted mock-ups

open access: yesJPhys Photonics
Nonlinear optical microscopies are widely used in the biological and biomedical fields, as they are non-invasive techniques that permit the safe structural and morphological characterisation of cells and tissues.

Lithium-Ion Battery Online Rapid State-of-Power Estimation under Multiple Constraints

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
The paper aims to realize a rapid online estimation of the state-of-power (SOP) with multiple constraints of a lithium-ion battery. Firstly, based on the improved first-order resistance-capacitance (RC) model with one-state hysteresis, a linear state ...
