Enhanced force control using force estimation and nonlinearity compensation for the Universal Haptic Pantograph
(IEEE, 2015-12-17)
The design of a stable and robust force controller is one of the most important and difficult tasks in rehabilitation robotics. In previous works, the Universal Haptic Pantograph (UHP) was presented as an alternative to ...
Functional consequences of biodiversity loss caused by emergent diseases in freshwater cosystems
(2024-03-15)
La biodiversidad de la Tierra está disminuyendo a un ritmo alarmante, con los ecosistemas de agua dulce sufriendo tasas de extinción mayores que los ecosistemas terrestres y marinos. Se sabe que la pérdida de biodiversidad ...
An insight into the reactions occurring during the chemical activation of bone char
(Elsevier, 2014-04-24)
The valorisation of animal wastes by pyrolysis has shown to be of interest, due to the versatility of the main compound of char, hydroxyapatite (HAP), which can be used in catalysis, electrochemistry, and adsorption. The ...
Alcohol triggers the accumulation of oxidatively damaged proteins in neuronal cells and tissues
(MDPI, 2024-05-08)
Alcohol is toxic to neurons and can trigger alcohol-related brain damage, neuronal loss, and cognitive decline. Neuronal cells may be vulnerable to alcohol toxicity and damage from oxidative stress after differentiation. ...
A Sustainable Material for Sheep’s Cheese Wedges Stored under Different Atmosphere Conditions
(MDPI, 2024-05-06)
This study is based on the need to improve packaging sustainability in the food industry. Its aim was to assess the performance of a recyclable plastic material for semi-hard sheep’s cheese wedges packaging as an alternative ...
Extracellular vesicles released by hair follicle and adipose mesenchymal stromal cells induce comparable neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects in primary neuronal and microglial cultures
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
Background aims
Despite intensive research, to date, there is no effective treatment for neurodegenerative diseases. Among the different therapeutic approaches, recently, the use of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived ...
Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis Using Machine Learning: A Survey
(MDPI, 2023-07-18)
Alzheimer’s is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting the central nervous system and cognitive processes, explicitly impairing detailed mental analysis. Throughout this condition, the affected individual’s cognitive abilities ...
Simultaneous Object Detection and Distance Estimation for Indoor Autonomous Vehicles
(MDPI, 2023-11-21)
Object detection is an essential and impactful technology in various fields due to its ability to automatically locate and identify objects in images or videos. In addition, object-distance estimation is a fundamental ...
Bootstrapping long memory time series: Application in low frequency estimators
(Elsevier, 2021-07-08)
Bootstrapping time series requires dealing with the dependence that may exist within
the sample. Several strategies have been proposed, but their validity has only been
proven for short memory series and there has been ...
Retinal thickness as a biomarker of cognitive impairment in manifest Huntington’s disease
(Springer Nature, 2023)
Background
Cognitive decline has been reported in premanifest and manifest Huntington’s disease but reliable biomarkers are lacking. Inner retinal layer thickness seems to be a good biomarker of cognition in other ...
