Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is one of the most challenging techniques for robot designers due to the limited size of access points, the high miniaturization level, and the dexterity needed for performing surgical tasks. Conversely, only a few microfab ...
Nowadays, several state-of-the-art multilevel converter topologies are used for numerous industrial medium-voltage (MV) high-power variable-speed drive applications. The 3-level neutral point clamped (3L-NPC) topology is one of those and is often used as a ...

A new concept for generating visual effects with metallized gratings is introduced. Shadow evaporation of aluminum onto dielectric gratings is shown to produce strongly asymmetric color effects. Zero-order effects are combined with +/- first-order transmis ...
The aim of the study was to quantify the vibrations occurring at the lower limbs and the trunk during alpine ski racing. Four European Cup level athletes skied each three runs on a typical giant slalom course. For each turn, power spectral density (PSD) of ...

Optical frequency combs have the potential to revolutionize terabit communications(1). The generation of Kerr combs in nonlinear microresonators(2) is particularly promising(3), enabling line spacings of tens of gigahertz. However, such combs may exhibit s ...
Biosensors based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of individual metallic nanoparticles promise to deliver modular, low-cost sensing with high-detection thresholds. However, they continue to suffer from relatively low sensitivity and figure ...
Although the techniques for normal price prediction are well advanced, price spike prediction remains a challenge. The aim of this paper is to present a method to predict both normal day-ahead electricity prices as well as day-ahead price spikes using clas ...
The proportion of elderly people is rapidly growing and the resources to help them will soon be insufficient. An important difficulty faced by the seniors is locomotion. Among the conditions that may be responsible for gait impairment, the reduced muscular ...
