Transitioning with confidence during contact/non-contact scenarios

Aude Billard, Nadia Barbara Figueroa Fernandez, Seyed Sina Mirrazavi Salehian, Hsiu-Chin Lin

In this work, we propose a dynamical system based strategy for establishing a stable contact with convex shaped surfaces during non-contact/contact scenarios. A contact is called stable if the impact occurs only once and the robot remains in contact with t ...

Microbiological characterization of 3193 French dwellings of Elfe cohort children

François Gillet

Although exposure to indoor microorganisms in early life has already been associated with respiratory illness or allergy protection, only a few studies have performed standardized samplings and specific microbial analysis. Moreover, most do not target the ...

The effect of loading on surface roughness at the atomistic level

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Peter Spijker

One of the key points to better understand the origins of friction is to know how two surfaces in contact adhere to one another. In this paper we present molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of two aluminium bodies in contact, exposed to a range of normal l ...

Impaired Humoral Immunity and Tolerance in K14-VEGFR-3-Ig Mice That Lack Dermal Lymphatic Drainage

Melody Swartz, Joseph Rutkowski, Miriella Carmela Pasquier, Susan Thomas

Lymphatic vessels transport interstitial fluid, soluble Ag, and immune cells from peripheral tissues to lymph nodes (LNs), yet the contribution of peripheral lymphatic drainage to adaptive immunity remains poorly understood. We examined immune responses to ...
