First-person view of one’s body in immersive virtual reality: Influence on episodic memory

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Robin Mange, Baptiste Gauthier, Lucie Bréchet, Quentin Antoine Marie Theillaud

Episodic memories (EMs) are recollections of contextually rich and personally relevant past events. EM has been linked to the sense of self, allowing one to mentally travel back in subjective time and re-experience past events. However, the sense of self h ...

Supernumerary Robotic Arm for Three-Handed Surgical Application: Behavioral Study and Design of Human-Machine Interface

Elahe Abdi

In surgical to industrial manipulation, the operator needs assistance for tasks requiring more than two hands. Teamwork may be the source of errors and inefficiency, especially if the assistant is a novice or unfamiliar with the main operator. The need for ...

Ductility and strain rate-dependency of adhesively-bonded timber joints

Myrsini Angelidi

One of the most important characteristics of load-bearing structures is ductility, i.e. the ability of a material or a structure to sustain inelastic deformation prior to failure, without loss of resistance. The topic of this PhD Thesis was to develop duct ...

Joint Friction during Deployment of a Near-Full-Scale Tensegrity Footbridge

Ian Smith, Ann Christine Sychterz

Most deployable structures, such as operable roofs and masts, move over one degree of freedom. This paper describes a structure that involves loosely coupled movement over several degrees of freedom. Analysis models of these structures are typically inaccu ...

Loading Histories for Cyclic Tests in Support of Collapse Assessment of Steel Columns

Dimitrios Lignos

During the last decade, a number of hysteretic models have been developed to simulate complex deteriorating mechanisms observed in steel components such that earthquake-induced collapse risk can be reliably assessed. Such models are typically calibrated wi ...

Transition and self-healing process between chaotic and self-organized patterns observed during femtosecond laser writing

Yves Bellouard, Max-Olivier Hongler

We report evidence of intermittent behavior between chaotic and self-organized patterns while writing lines with a femtosecond lasers on the surface of a fused silica substrate. The patterns are accompanied by resolidified sub-microspheres and non-aligned ...
