Effect of Robot-Assisted Therapy on Participation of People with Limited Upper Limb Functioning: A Systematic Review with GRADE Recommendations.

Background: Previous studies have suggested that robot-assisted therapy (RT) is effective in treating impairment and that it may also improve individuals' participation.

Objective: To investigate the effect of RT on the participation of individuals with limited upper limb functioning (PROSPERO: CRD42019133880). : PEDro, Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane, AMED, and Compendex.

Analysis of Stresses in a Tapered Roller Bearing Using Three-Dimensional Photoelasticity and Stereolithography.

Digital photoelasticity is an important segment of optical metrology for stress analysis by digital photographic images. Advances in digital image processing, data acquisition, standard recognition and data storage allow the utilization of computer-aided techniques in the automation and improvement of the digital photoelastic technique. The objective of this study is to develop new techniques using 3D rapid prototyping with transparent resins in digital photoelasticity.
