Human reaction to external stimuli can be investigated in a comprehensive way by using a versatile virtual-reality setup involving multiple display technologies. It is apparent that versatility remains a main challenge when human reactions are examined thr ...
Compliant actuation contributes enormously in legged locomotion robotics since it is able to alleviate control efforts in improving the robot’s adaptability and energy efficiency. In this paper, we present a novel design of a variable stiffness rotary actu ...
The velocity of a liquid slug falling in a capillary tube is lower than predicted for Poiseuille flow due to presence of menisci, whose shapes are determined by the complex interplay of capillary, viscous, and gravitational forces. Due to the presence of m ...
The antiferromagnetically ordered state of the monoclinic quasi-one-dimensional S = 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet CuSb2O6 was studied combining torque magnetometry with a phenomenological approach to magnetic anisotropy. This system is known to have a num ...
The way central nervous system manages the excess degrees of freedom to solve kinetic redundancy of musculoskeletal system remains an open question. In this study, we utilise the concept of synergy formation as a simplifying control strategy to find the mu ...
Part load operation of high energy centrifugal pumps is associated with increased vibration levels which may adversely affect the machines operational safety. The main sources of vibrations in centrifugal pumps are of hydrodynamic nature. The interaction b ...
We have fabricated a microfluidic device based on a novel geometrical arrangement of lateral metal electrodes and a patterned insulator. We have used the concept of insulator-based "electrodeless" dielectrophoresis to achieve focusing and continuous separa ...

In a recent paper [R. Finn, Phys. Fluids 18, 047102 (2006)] the attention has been drawn on the tension component perpendicular to the solid surface that results from Young's law. Considering the problem of a solid sphere floating in zero gravity, it has b ...
This paper describes hardware and behavior implementation of a miniature robot in size of a match box that simulates the behavior of cockroaches in order to establish a social interaction with them. The robot is equipped with two micro-processors dedicated ...
Pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) represent a promising solution for passive on-chip, two-phase cooling of micro-electronics, providing advantages such as a simple construction and operation in any gravitational orientation. Unfortunately, the unique coupling of ...
