An improved version of the multimodal admittance method in acoustic waveguides with varying cross sections is presented. This method aims at a better convergence with respect to the number of transverse modes that are taken into account. It is based on an enriched modal expansion of the pressure: the first modes are the local transverse modes and a supplementary (+1)th mode, called boundary mode, is a well-chosen transverse function orthogonal to the first modes. This expansion leads to the classical form of the coupled mode equations where the component of the boundary mode is of evanescent character. Under this form, the multimodal admittance method based on the Riccati equation on the admittance matrix (the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator) is straightforwardly implemented. With this supplementary mode, in addition to the improvement of the convergence of the pressure field, results show a superconvergence of the scattered field outside of the varying cross sections region.

A multimodal method for computing the potential base flow and propagating acoustic perturbations inside axisymmetric ducts is presented. Instead of using the standard modal basis, a polynomial basis is used in the radial direction to reduce the computational cost of the method, but this introduces non-physical high-order modes. The impact of these modes on the stability of the calculation is examined, and for the acoustic computation, a modification of the axial integration is proposed to improve the conditioning of the matrices involved.

Hypothesis: The antidepressant drug imipramine, and its metabolite desipramine show different extents of interaction with, and passive permeation through, cellular membrane models, with the effects depending on the membrane composition. Through multimodal interrogation, we can observe that the drugs have a direct impact on the physicochemical properties of the membrane, that may play a role in their pharmacokinetics.
Experiments: Microcavity pore-suspended lipid bilayers (MSLBs) of four different compositions, each with a different headgroup charge namely; zwitterionic dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC), mixed DOPC and negatively charged dioleoylphosphatidylglycerol (DOPG) (3:1), mixed DOPC and positively charged dioleoyltrimethylammoniumpropane (DOTAP) (3:1), and with increasing complex composition mimicking blood-brain-barrier (BBB) were prepared on gold and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates using a Langmuir-Blodgett-vesicle fusion method.

The lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot should perform gait planning based on the patient's motor intention and training status and provide multimodal and robust control schemes in the control strategy to enhance patient participation. This paper proposes an adaptive particle swarm optimization admittance control algorithm (APSOAC), which adaptively optimizes the weights and learning factors of the PSO algorithm to avoid the problem of particle swarm falling into local optimal points. The proposed improved adaptive particle swarm algorithm adjusts the stiffness and damping parameters of the admittance control online to reduce the interaction force between the patient and the robot and adaptively plans the patient's desired gait profile.

The increasing prevalence of stress-related disorders such as burnout urges the need for specialized treatment approaches. Programmes combining psychotherapy and regenerative interventions emerge to be the most successful. However, evaluated therapy programmes are scarce and usually involve subjective symptom quantification without consideration of physiologic parameters.

Sweat sensors introduced in recent years have targeted a variety of sweat features and biomarkers for non-invasive health monitoring. Amongst these targets, reliable monitoring of sweat rate is crucial due to its modulation of sweat analyte concentrations and its intrinsic significance to numerous medical and physiological health conditions. Here we present a sweat rate sensor structure comprising of electrodes with interdigitated fingers in a microfluidic channel.
