Reward boosts reinforcement-based motor learning

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis, Julie Duqué

Besides relying heavily on sensory and reinforcement feedback, motor skill learning may also depend on the level of motivation experienced during training. Yet, how motivation by reward modulates motor learning remains unclear. In 90 healthy subjects, we i ...

Metal Soap Membranes for Gas Separation

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Jian Hao, Davide Campi, Deepu Joseph Babu, Qi Liu

Metal soaps or metal alkanoates are metal-organic complexes held together with metal cations and the functional groups of hydrocarbon chains. They can be synthesized at a high yield by simply mixing the metal and organic sources, forming crystalline framew ...

TIA Linearity Analysis for Current Mode Receivers

Catherine Dehollain

Current-mode signal processing offers superior linearity and flexibility in front-end implementation. The linearity of a low-input-impedance Trans-Impedance Amplifier (TIA), which is used as a buffer stage that follows a passive mixer, is important in dete ...

Understanding the mixing process in 3D microfluidic nozzle/diffuser systems: simulations and experiments

Martinus Gijs, Abdeljalil Sayah

We characterise computationally and experimentally a three-dimensional (3D) microfluidic passive mixer for various Reynolds numbers ranging from 1 to 100, corresponding to primary flow rates of 10-870 mu l min(-1). The 3D mixing channel is composed of mult ...
