Form-finding of tensegrity structures via rank minimization of force density matrix

This study proposes a general computational framework for the form-finding of tensegrity structures. The procedure is divided into two stages in which the member force densities and nodal coordinates are obtained respectively. In the first stage, the deter ...

Occupant satisfaction with indoor environmental quality, sick building syndrome (SBS) symptoms and self-reported productivity before and after relocation into WELL-certified office buildings

Dusan Licina, Serra Yildirim

Recent green building certification programs have put a strong emphasis on occupant health and well-being. For recently emerged WELL certification, we lack evidence about its effectiveness in relation to occupant satisfaction, productivity and health. Here ...

Na3V2(PO4)(3)-Supported Electrospun Carbon Nanofiber Nonwoven Fabric as Self-Standing Na-Ion Cell Cathode

Jürgen Brugger, Carlo Ricciardi

Sodium-ion technology is a reliable alternative to lithium-ion for large-scale energy storage because of the abundance of sodium sources and related low cost. In this work, we report about a simple fabrication of self-standing electrodes based on electrosp ...

Global convergence of COVID-19 basic reproduction number and estimation from early-time SIR dynamics

Gabriele Manoli, Sara Bonetti, Gabriel George Katul

The SIR (‘susceptible-infectious-recovered’) formulation is used to uncover the generic spread mechanisms observed by COVID-19 dynamics globally, especially in the early phases of infectious spread. During this early period, potential controls were not eff ...

Analytical Approach for Active Distribution Network Restoration Including Optimal Voltage Regulation

Hossein Sekhavatmanesh

The ever-increasing utilization of sensitive loads in the industrial, commercial, and residential areas in distribution networks requires enhanced reliability and quality of supply. This can be achieved, thanks to self-healing features of smart grids that ...

Sensory feedback restoration in leg amputees improves walking speed, metabolic cost and phantom pain

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Conventional leg prostheses do not convey sensory information about motion or interaction with the ground to aboveknee amputees, thereby reducing confidence and walking speed in the users that is associated with high mental and physical fatigue(1-4). The l ...

Designing for impact: a conceptual framework for learning analytics as self-assessment tools

Patrick Jermann, Roland John Tormey, Cécile Hardebolle, Francisco Pereira Correia Pinto

Although it is frequently claimed that learning analytics can improve self-evaluation and self-regulated learning by students, most learning analytics tools appear to have been developed as a response to existing data rather than with a clear pedagogical m ...

Virtual Reality as a Vehicle to Empower Motor-Cognitive Neurorehabilitation

Andrea Serino

In this paper, we advocate the combination of four key ingredients that we believe are necessary to design long-lasting effective treatments for neurorehabilitation: (i) motor-cognitive training, (ii) evidence-based neuroscience principles, in particular t ...

Re-assessing the Formation of N-nitrosamines during Chloramination of Various Nitrogenous Compounds using Specific and Total N-nitrosamines Analysis

Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Andrea Piazzoli

N-nitrosamines (NOAs) are potent carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds that can be present in water, biological fluids, food, consumer products and cigarette smoke. Several studies have shown that the formation of NOAs in water can arise from the reactions ...
