Digital Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering With Event Counting and Spectrum Learning for Label‐Free Protein Quantification

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A statistical and machine learning‐assisted surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) framework is developed for label‐free quantification of low‐abundance analytes, including proteins. Combining digital SERS event counting with binomial regression and an artificial neural network (ANN) trained on full spectra, the approach achieves picomolar detection ...

Robot's hand and expansions in non-integer bases

open access: yes, 2014
We study a robot hand model in the framework of the theory of expansions in non-integer bases. We investigate the reachable workspace and we study some configurations enjoying form closure properties.Comment: 22 pages, 10 ...

A micro snake-like robot for small pipe inspection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The goal of this research is development of a micro robot which can negotiate pipes whose diameter varies widely. The robot mechanism is based on "snaking drive". First, in section 1 to 4, basic characteristics of the snaking drive are discussed:

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Learning Flexible and Reusable Locomotion Primitives for a Microrobot

open access: yes, 2018
The design of gaits for robot locomotion can be a daunting process which requires significant expert knowledge and engineering. This process is even more challenging for robots that do not have an accurate physical model, such as compliant or micro-scale
