Series elastic actuators have linear springs intentionally placed in series between the motor and actuator output. The spring strain is measured to get an accurate estimate of force. A second order model broken into two fundamental cases: fixed load-high force (forward transfer function), free load-zero (impedance). This presented with dimensional analysis extends previous models include friction. Using dimensionless groups, we examine nonlinear effects saturation as it relates large...
Social prescribing is an approach that aims to improve health and well-being. It connects individuals non-clinical services supports address social needs, such as those related loneliness, housing instability mental health. At the person level, can give knowledge, skills, motivation confidence manage their own society it facilitate greater collaboration across health, social, community sectors promote integrated care move beyond traditional biomedical model of While term was first...
Summary Background Cocooning or shielding, i.e. staying at home and reducing face-to-face interaction with other people, was an important part of the response to COVID-19 pandemic for older people. However, concerns exist regarding long-term adverse effects cocooning may have on their physical mental health. Aim To examine health trajectories healthcare utilization while in a cohort community-dwelling people aged ≥70 years. Design Survey 150 patients (55% female, mean age 80 years Clinical...
Introductory digital image processing optical techniques intensity based analysis methods temporal phase measurement spatial unwrapping in speckle photography and PIV applications.
The application of a general-purpose image-processing computer system to automatic fringe analysis is presented. Three areas have been examined where the use based on random access frame store has enabled processing algorithm be developed suit specific problem. Furthermore, it performed with complex and noisy data. applications considered are strain measurement by speckle interferometry, position location in three axes, fault detection holographic nondestructive testing. A brief description...
When originally published in 1979, this was the first comprehensive study of Jakhanke any language. Despite 19th ambience jihad, maintined their tradition consistent pacifism and political neutrality which is unique Muslim Black Africa. Drawing on histories, interviews, colonial reports book traces details pilgrimages analyses important themes such as system education, function dream-interpreters amulet-makers finally dependence way life institution slavery.
The aim of this study was to compare oral abnormalities and health-related quality life (HRQoL) patients with SSc the general population.

Abstract Objectives To examine the incidence, predictors and outcomes associated with severe gastrointestinal (GI) disease in a large inception SSc cohort. Methods subjects <2 years of duration were identified from two multicentre cohorts. Severe GI was defined as: malabsorption, hyperalimentation, pseudo-obstruction and/or ⩾10% weight loss association use antibiotics for bacterial overgrowth or oesophageal stricture. Kaplan–Meier, multivariate logistic regression Cox proportional hazard...
A major challenge within forensic science is the development of accurate and robust methodologies that can be utilized on-site for detection at crime scenes used analyzing multiple sample types. The recent expansion electrochemical sensors to tackle this hurdle requires undergo analysis without any pretreatment. Given vast array samples are submitted analysis, pose a all sensors, including electrochemiluminescent (ECL)-based sensors. Within contribution, we demonstrate capacity an ECL-based...
Muslim Societies in African History. By David Robinson. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004, Pp. xx, 220, 15 b/w illustrations. $55.00 cloth, $19.00 paper. Recent tragedies have pushed Islam to the forefront of our collective consciousness. In his Introduction, Robinson writes that complex histories Muslims are critical an understanding variety as well the, aspiration for unity Islamic world and serve antidote many interpretations September 11 (p, xviii). This last goal may be out...
In contrast to the negative conclusions reached by Donal Cruise O'Brien, it is here argued that French, in last half of nineteenth century, maintained an Islamic policy. They practised some all time and when they had human financial resources. consistently opposed state where conflicted with their own political economic interests. identified old nemesis Futa Toro Tokolor, then Tijaniyya. This attitude can be contrasted a much more tolerant disposition towards established monarchies, whom...
New discoveries from a Californian cave have found remarkable assemblage of cached perishable and other artefacts. Comprised baskets, cordage, bone, antler, leather, food residues materials, the assemblages are dispersed through four caves in largest ever cache discovered borderland region attributable to native linguistic group known as Chumash. This paper develops methodology based upon DeLanda's philosophy Graeber's anthropological theory value. Importantly, following Normark, it is argue...
