Open AccessThe study aimed to compare the conventional method of electrode marking with a new system, EPlacement, to improve accuracy and reduce the time burden on health care professionals. Ten health care professionals marked ... -
Adapted assistance and resistance training with a knee exoskeleton after stroke
(2023-08-09)
Article
Open AccessStudies on robotic interventions for gait rehabilitation after stroke require: (i) rigorous performance evidence; (ii) systematic procedures to tune the control parameters; and (iii) combination of control modes. In this ... -
Inertial sensors for gait monitoring and design of adaptive controllers for exoskeletons after stroke: a feasibility study
(Frontiers Media SA, 2023-08-07)
Article
Open AccessIntroduction: Tuning the control parameters is one of the main challenges in robotic gait therapy. Control strategies that vary the control parameters based on the user’s performance are still scarce and do not exploit the ... -
Coupling capillary-driven microfluidics with lateral flow immunoassay for signal enhancement
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-08-01)
Article
Open AccessMicrofluidics has emerged as a versatile technology that is applied to enhance the performance of analytical techniques, among others. Pursuing this, we present a capillary-driven microfluidic device that improves the ... -
A state-of-the-art guide about the effects of sterilization processes on 3D-printed materials for surgical planning and medical applications: a comparative study
(2023-05-17)
Article
Open AccessSurgeons use different medical devices in the surgery, such as patient-specific anatomical models, cutting and positioning guides, or implants. These devices must be sterilized before being used in the operation room. There ... -
Analysis of ultrasonic vibration-assisted ball burnishing process on the tribological behavior of AISI 316L cylindrical specimens
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-08-12)
Article
Open AccessIn this study, we analyzed the effects of vibration assistance, combined with a ball burnishing process, in terms of topology, residual stresses, and tribological properties on 316L shafts. The burnishing variables consisted ... -
