Topological robotics: motion planning in projective spaces

open access: yes, 2002
We study an elementary problem of topological robotics: rotation of a line, which is fixed by a revolving joint at a base point: one wants to bring the line from its initial position to a final position by a continuous motion in the space. The final goal

Factors Affecting Audiometric and Speech Perception Outcomes in Hybrid Cochlear Implant Recipients

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Hybrid L24 cochlear implant recipients maintained functionally aidable low‐frequency hearing through 5 years at a rate of 73%, with significant improvements in speech perception in quiet and noise, and EAS users showing superior speech scores compared to electric‐only users.

Impact and Post‐Impact Properties of Carbon Fiber Fabric Laminates Reinforced With Carbon Nanofibres

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Carbon nanofiber addition on the low‐velocity impact response of carbon fiber laminates. ABSTRACT The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) is limited by their susceptibility to low‐velocity impact (LVI) damage. This study investigates the effect of incorporating 0.75 wt.% carbon nanofibres (CNFs) into the epoxy matrix of carbon fiber fabric ...

Proposal for Use of Dematel Model in Combination With FMEA and FMECA Methods

open access: yesActa Technologica Agriculturae
The elimination of time, cost, and material losses is the ultimate goal of any organisation. Reliability can also negatively impact these losses; therefore, our aim is to use tools which can prevent this from occurring.

Evolving Features of RASopathies Among Pregnancies With Abnormal Fetal Fluid Collections

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We aimed to characterize the fetal features across gestation and describe genotype‐phenotype correlations for pregnancies with fetal RASopathies that were more severely affected as they presented with at least one abnormal fluid collection.
