In this paper, we further develop our framework to design new assistance and rehabilitation protocols based on motor primitives. In particular, we extend our recent results of oscillator-based assistance to the case of walking. The adaptive oscillator used ...

This project involved the conversion of a British Waterways maintenance craft to a canal boat, powered by a combination of a solid-state hydrogen store, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell, lead-acid battery pack and a high-efficiency, permanent magne ...
We report on the installation of fast polarizers for ECRH injection and ECE diagnostics, in the TCV tokamak. The main goal is to change the polarization during a plasma shot and react to changing conditions such as: plasma current and position, ECRH inject ...
Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) with perching capabilities can be used to efficiently place sensors in aloft locations. A major challenge for perching is to build a lightweight mechanism that can be easily mounted on a MAV, allowing it to perch (attach and de ...
When we are engaged in a joint action, we need to integrate our partner's actions with our own actions. Previous research has shown that in adults the involvement of one's own motor system is enhanced during observation of an action partner as compared to ...
Two ITER IF dual channel Cable-in-Conduit Conductors (CICCs) have been tested in the SULTAN test facility. The samples were heated either by foil heaters mounted on the outside of the conductor jacket or by induced AC losses. The steady-state temperature r ...
Since control of a three-phase machine requires only two currents, it is possible to independently control a number of three-phase machines using reduced-switch-count voltage source inverter (VSI) topologies. One such configuration consists of n three-phas ...
Multiphase variable-speed drives are typically supplied from a two-level voltage source inverter (VSI). The number of phases of the machine and hence the legs of the inverter can be either a prime or a composite number. Limits of the dc bus utilisation in ...
In this paper an Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithm is proposed for a certain class of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems whose dynamics change between iterations. Consistency of the algorithm in the presence of stochastic disturbances is shown ...

Until now, the preferred solution for MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) actuation is the electrostatic one. The main reason is that this kind of actuators can be easily manufactured following the microfabrication rules, as their geometry perfectly fi ...
