Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMotor Imagery and Stroke Neurorehabilitation: An Overview of Basic Concepts and Therapeutic EffectsAmanda Lopes Abbas, Marina Fortuna Lucas, Silmar Teixeira et al.Problem statement: Motor Imagery (MI), which corresponds to an active process during which the representation of a specific action is internally reproduced into working memory without any motor output. It represents the result of conscious access to the content of a movement intention, which is usually performed unconsciously during movement preparation. Approach: This review study aims to provide information on … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 21 Jan 2012 · 7,587 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuropsychological Dysfunction among HIV Infected Drug AbusersRamani S. Durvasula, Charles H. HinkinHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been documented to cause direct and indirect central nervous system dysfunction that can be observed as a progressive decline in neuropsychological functioning in a large proportion of persons with HIV and AIDS. Neuropsychological decline in individuals with HIV is characterized by cognitive and motor slowing, attentional deficits, executive dysfunction and memory impairment (characterized by intact … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,155 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMemory Convergence and Optimization with Fuzzy PSO and ACSSubhash C. Pandey, Dr. P. MisraAssociative neural memories are models of biological phenomena that allow for the storage of pattern associations and the retrieval of the desired output pattern upon presentation of a possibly noisy or incomplete version of an input pattern. In this study, we introduce fuzzy swarm particle optimization technique for convergence of associative neural memories based on fuzzy set theory. A Fuzzy … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,169 accessesView PDF Cite
