EEG topographies provide subject-specific correlates of motor control

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia, Jesús Minguillón Campos

Electroencephalography (EEG) of brain activity can be represented in terms of dynamically changing topographies (microstates). Notably, spontaneous brain activity recorded at rest can be characterized by four distinctive topographies. Despite their well-es ...

Potential of Flex-PCB Winding in Coreless Tubular Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines

Yves Perriard, Bruno Dehez, François Baudart

Many applications are limited by the performance of the motors that power them. In the small power range, slotless BLDC motors are commonly used due to their intrinsic high power density and smooth torque characteristic. However, recent work has shown that ...
