A fault-tolerant permanent-magnet vernier (FT-PMV) machine is designed for direct-drive applications, incorporating the merits of high torque density and high reliability. Based on the so-called magnetic gearing effect, PMV machines have the ability of high torque density by introducing the flux-modulation poles (FMPs). This paper investigates the fault-tolerant characteristic of PMV machines and provides a design method, which is able to not only meet the fault-tolerant requirements but also keep the ability of high torque density. The operation principle of the proposed machine has been analyzed. The design process and optimization are presented specifically, such as the combination of slots and poles, the winding distribution, and the dimensions of PMs and teeth. By using the time-stepping finite element method (TS-FEM), the machine performances are evaluated. Finally, the FT-PMV machine is manufactured, and the experimental results are presented to validate the theoretical analysis.

Introduction: Implantology has become a primary solution for tooth loss due to excellent osseointegration and high long-term success rates. However, complications such as abutment screw loosening, especially in implant-supported single crowns, compromise prosthesis longevity. Anaerobic adhesives (AAs) have shown promise in mechanical fields for preventing screw loosening, but their effectiveness in dental implants, particularly zirconia, remains uncertain.

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) is the gold standard for treating ACL injuries, particularly in soccer players who are at a high risk of knee injury. While professional athletes often return to sport (RTS) within 7-10 months after ACLR, non-elite players experience significant delays. There is a need to investigate neuromuscular deficits and functional asymmetries in the non-elite group, which may persist even after clearance for RTS.

Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have improved clinical outcomes across several solid tumour types. Prominent efforts have focused on understanding the anticancer mechanisms of these agents, identifying biomarkers of response and uncovering resistance mechanisms to develop new immunotherapeutic approaches. This research has underscored the crucial roles of the tumour microenvironment and, particularly, tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in immune-mediated tumour elimination.

Aerial insects are exceptionally agile and precise owing to their small size and fast neuromotor control. They perform impressive acrobatic maneuvers when evading predators, recovering from wind gust, or landing on moving objects. Flapping-wing propulsion is advantageous for flight agility because it can generate large changes in instantaneous forces and torques.

Purpose: This study assessed the microgap width and adhesion of three bacterial species in four dental implants with different interlocks under four screwing torques.
Materials And Methods: Ten samples of four implant systems with various interlockings, including full-hexagonal (FHI), cylindrical-conical trilobe-index (TLI), Morse-taper with octagon terminal index (OI), and hexagonal interlock (slip-fit) (HI-SF), were used. The abutments were screwed to the fixtures under torques of 10, 20, 30, and 40 Ncm.
