Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis and Mechanical Design Solutions for Sit-To-Stand Assisting DevicesPierluigi Rea, Erika OttavianoSit-to-stand can be considered the most common daily-life activity and it can be defined as a change of posture, in which the base of support is transferred from the seat to the feet. It requires both voluntary movement of different body segments that contribute to the equilibrium and control during an important displacement of the Centre Of Gravity of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2016 · 7,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicroelectrical Mechanical Systems Switch for Designing Multi-Band AntennaA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Md. Rafiqul Islam, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: In this study Microelectrical Mechanical System (MEMS) switches were proposed to design a reconfigurable/multi-band antenna to replaced PIN diode switches or semiconductor switches due to lower insertion losses, good isolation, much lower intermodulation distortion, and lower power consumption. The antenna is able to operate at very high frequencies. Approach: A reconfigurable antenna that is capable to operate at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStability and Ergonomic Design Features of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator for Coconut HarvestingKishor Purushottamrao Kolhe, Ashok G. Powar, Amit D. Dhakane, Sham H. MankarProblem statement: The most important design criterion of mechanized device was safety; safety comprises both the safety of operator and safety of maintenance personnel. Failures and safety of harvesting platform of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator (TMHE) powered by tractor PTO was tested by finite element method for the mechanical harvesting of coconut orchards using digital ergonomic hart rate meter. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2011 · 8,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThermal-Mechanical Analysis of a Different Leadframe Thickness of Semiconductor Package under the Reflow ProcessS. Abdullah, M. F. Abdullah, A. K. Ariffin, A. JalarThe copper-based leadframe is practically proven effective in the thermal and reliability of a Quad Flat No Lead (QFN) three dimension (3D) stacked-die semiconductor package. Reducing the copper thickness is understood to present various thermal and reliability failure mode and mechanisms, such as die cracking and delamination. However, no in-depth study has been pursued in order to determine the capability … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFuture Medicine Services RoboticsRelly Victoria V. Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion T. PetrescuIt is an entry technique in use recently, albeit in selected centers and represents a further step in the field of minimally invasive surgery. Basically it has the same indications but, at present, is reserved for selected patients. Compared to traditional video-assisted surgery presents some important differences. The surgeon is physically distant from the operative field and sits at a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 26 Nov 2016 · 8,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Evaluation of an Assisting Device for Training "Normal-Like" Sit To Stand MovementPierluigi Rea, Erika Ottaviano, Gianni CastelliThis paper presents a performance evaluation and results on the modelling and simulation of an assisting device to be used as aiding or guiding system for people with reduced mobility. There is a high level of motivation for elderly to perform independently basic Activities of Daily Life (ADL). Therefore, it is of great interest to design and implement reliable assisting … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 26 Jul 2017 · 7,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Scarification and Sucrose Priming Overcome Physical Dormancy in Caesalpinia spinosa (Tara) Seeds from the Peruvian HighlandsWilfredo Ruiz-Camacho, Ítalo Maldonado Ramirez, Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira et al.Caesalpinia spinose (tara) is a leguminous tree native to the Peruvian Andes-Amazon region, valued for soil restoration and high tannin content. However, its large-scale propagation is constrained by physical seed dormancy caused by a hard and impermeable seed coat. This study evaluated six pre-germination treatments to break dormancy and enhance early seedling development under local agroclimatic conditions in Magdalena District, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2026 · 1,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of a Smart File Cabinet System With Enhanced Security and Remote AccessAdebayo Afeez Oluwagbenga, Mustapha Favour, Adebiyi Temidayo Daniel et al.In an era increasingly defined by digital interconnectivity, the physical security of sensitive hard-copy documents remains a persistent vulnerability in organizational infrastructure. Traditional filing cabinets, relying on passive mechanical locks, lack the capability for real-time monitoring, remote access control, or active intrusion detection. This research presents the design and validation of a Smart File Cabinet (SFC) system that bridges this … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 May 2026 · 1,696 accessesView PDFCite
