This study presents the development of a solar-driven thermally regenerative electrochemical cell (STREC) for continuous power generation. Key innovations include dual-function carbon-based electrodes for efficient solar absorption and electrochemical reactions, a transparent and ultrainsulating silica aerogel to maximize solar spectrum transmission while minimizing heat loss, and a compact heat exchanger to recover heat from hot cell streams. Under 1 sun conditions, the STREC achieves a power density of 912.

A novel robust control strategy is proposed in this work to address the dynamic control problem of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) position tracking and lessen the effect of system parameter and load fluctuations on the dynamic performance of PMSM. The tracking performance is improved by a robust control element built with the Lyapunov method to reduce the impact of uncertain factors such as parameter uncertainty, nonlinear friction, and external interference; the nominal control element is stabilized by the dynamics model. The uniformly bounded and uniformly final bounded systems are proven, and the associated conclusions are provided using the Lyapunov minimax approach.

Purpose Of Review: The aim of this review is to investigate the most suitable surgical approach to managing parapharyngeal space (PPS) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) metastasis.
Recent Findings: SCC metastasis in PPS are extremely rare. The PPS itself is a complex anatomical area, requiring extensive surgical experience and various surgical approaches for effective management.

SingHealth Community Hospitals, Singapore, Singapore.
Background: Social robots have been used in other countries for improvement of quality of life for persons with dementia.
Method: LOVOT was introduced as an adjunct to regular therapy sessions (either Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy) and as an interactive companion during the patient's inpatient stay. The project was carried out over a span of 6 weeks (weekdays) for a maximum of 10-15 mins on an ad-hoc basis.
