Spin dynamics controlled by magnetoelastic coupling and applied electric fields might play a vital role in future developments of magnonics, i.e., the exploitation of spin waves for the transmission and processing of information. We have performed broadban ...
Performance of unimanual movements is associated with bihemispheric activity in the motor cortex in old adults. However, the causal functional role of the ipsilateral MC (iMC) for motor control is still not completely known. Here, the behavioral consequenc ...
This article presents the first closed-loop magnetic bearing and angular velocity experimental results of a reaction sphere actuator for satellite attitude control. The proposed reaction sphere is a permanent magnet spherical actuator whose rotor is suppor ...
Recent advances in neurofeedback based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allow for learning to control spatially localized brain activity in the range of millimeters across the entire brain. Realtime fMRI neurofeedback studies have ...
Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to a range of disabilities, including locomotor impairments that seriously diminish the patients’ quality of life. Strategies to promote functional recovery after severe SCI will undoubtedly include approaches to regenerate i ...
Stepper motors are a very convenient and economical solution for accurate positioning applications where long lifetime and low wear are required. Their particularly simple open-loop operation reduces the number of control components to a minimum. However, ...
A new five-level photovoltaic Inverter is presented, implemented by associating a Multistage Stacked Boost Architecture (MSBA) with a 5-level NPC inverter. Ahead of the MSBA conversion stage, a conventional boost converter allows the operation of the PV ce ...
Take-off, the most important phase in ski jumping, has been primarily studied in terms of spatio-temporal parameters, with little known about its motor control aspects. This study aims to assess the inter-segment coordination of the shank-thigh and thigh-s ...
Fragile-X tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late onset movement disorder affecting FMR1 premutation carriers. In our recent work (Battistella et al., 2013, ) we demonstrated a unique pattern of preclinical changes in young asymptomatic carriers involving ...
A new isolated DC-DC converter is presented suited for high voltage applications. It is based on the series connection of NPC inverter cells, using semiconductor devices with lower voltage blocking capability than the total input voltage. The galvanic isol ...
