Stabilization of overlapping biofilaments by passive crosslinkers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

The formation, maintenance and reorganization of the cytoskeletal filament network is essential for a number of cellular processes. While the crucial role played by active forces generated by motor proteins has been studied extensively, only recently the i ...

Non-invasive Cerebellar Stimulation: a Promising Approach for Stroke Recovery?

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Maximilian Jonas Wessel

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) combined with behavioral training is a promising strategy to augment recovery after stroke. Current research efforts have been mainly focusing on primary motor cortex (M1) stimulation. However, the translation from pro ...

Towards Peak Torque Minimization for Modular Self-folding Robots

Jamie Paik, Christoph Heinrich Belke, Meibao Yao

Modular self-folding robots are versatile systems that can change their own shape from two-dimensional patterns at instant commands. This reconfigurability is commonly restrained by power limitation in autonomous environments. The robotic systems with insu ...

Sensorless Position Detection Framework for a Multi-state Switched Reluctance Actuator of a Textile Machine

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Paolo Germano, Xinchang Liu

Sensorless needle position detection for the actuator of a textile machine is challenging because of its multi current levels used and the transient state when the current changes. A local regression method can be used to represent the variation of inducta ...

Somatosensory Cortex Plays an Essential Role in Forelimb Motor Adaptation in Mice

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis

Our motor outputs are constantly re-calibrated to adapt to systematic perturbations. This motor adaptation is thought to depend on the ability to form a memory of a systematic perturbation, often called an internal model. However, the mechanisms underlying ...

Validation by Measurements of a Windage Losses Model for Very-High-Speed Machines

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

When designing a very-high-speed (VHS) machine, it is crucial to evaluate the windage losses accurately, because they are an important part of the total losses. It is therefore important to validate a reliable model, further used for the design and optimiz ...
