Series elastic actuation (SEA) is an interaction control paradigm that relies on a compliant force sensing element and utilizes the model of this compliant dynamics in closed-loop force control. We present sufficient conditions for passivity of SEA under model reference force control (MRFC) during null impedance rendering. We prove that overestimation of robot inertia and underestimation of the stiffness of the series elastic element can ensure coupled stability of interaction for SEA under MRFC during null impedance rendering, as long as a lower limit on damping compensation is not violated. We experimentally verify the passivity bounds and demonstrate the null impedance rendering performance of MRFC.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate body composition variability assessed by bioimpedance in relation to nutritional status assessed by anthropometry in children and adolescents living in countries characterized by contrasting nutritional conditions.

Methods: The sample was comprised of 8614 children (4245 males; 4369 females), aged 3 to 19 years, from Nepal (477 children), Uganda (488 children and adolescents), UK (297 children and adolescents) and US (7352 children and adolescents). Height-for-age (HAZ) and body mass index-for-age (BAZ) z-scores were calculated according to WHO growth references.

Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer that affects both sexes and has a poor prognosis due to aggressiveness and chemoresistance. Essential oils isolated from (CF-EOs) have been shown to demonstrate anti-termite, antifungal, anti-mosquito, and anti-microbial activities. However, the anticancer effects of CF-EOs are not yet fully understood.

A 1 × 2 Low-Profile Filtering Antenna Array Using Strip Dense Dielectric Patch.

Micromachines (Basel)

September 2023

School of Information Science and Technology, Nantong University, Nantong 226019, China.

A 1 × 2 low-profile filtering antenna array is proposed, using an H-shape resonator to feed two strip dense dielectric patch (DDP) resonators. The even-odd mode of the H-shape resonator and the TM mode of the strip DDP resonator form the radiation band. Additionally, the odd-odd mode of the H-shape resonator excites the TM mode of the strip DDP resonator, thus achieving an upper-edge radiation null for the filtering response.
