We present a new mechanical oscillator architecture that can be made insensitive to linear and angular accelerations while keeping constant oscillation frequency. The oscillator has the kinematics of a Watt linkage, so we call it a Watt oscillator. In orde ...
The European Home Team is responsible for the design, the fabrication and the test of the Toroidal Field Model Coil (TFMC) of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), Within this task, three full size samples had to be fabricated by ind ...
Within the framework of the R&D studies for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project, the first full size NbTi conductor sample was fabricated industrially and tested in the SULTAN facility (Villigen, Switzerland). This sample (P ...
This paper presents a novel planar four-bar linkage compliant mechanism (called 4-RCC) based on four flexure-based Remote Center of Compliance (RCC) pivots. With particular configurations and dimensions, the beam shortening of the RCC pivots can compensate ...
Recovery of locomotor function was investigated in seven cosmonauts exposed to microgravity for 6 months. Crew members executed a locomotor task with visual cues (eyes open, EO) and without them (eyes closed, EC). The locomotor task consisted of ascending ...
