modeling and wrench feasible workspace analysis of a spatial cable suspended robots is presented. a six-cable spatial cable robot is used the same as stewart robots. due to slow motion of the robot we suppose the motion as pseudostatic and kinetostatic modeling is performed. various workspaces are defined and the results of simulation are presented on the basis of various workspaces and applied...

When a healthcare professional commits an error that results in an adverse patient outcome, it is increasingly considered appropriate that an apology should be made to the harmed person. 2 Such an apology benefits both the health professional and the patient, and serves to address the considerable emotional burden that accompanies this wrenching aspect of practice (see page 249). The process of...

This trip examines exposures in the Adirondack Lowlands that contain Paleozoic hydrothermal and faultrelated features hosted by Mesoproterozoic ‘Grenville’ marbles and Cambrian Potsdam Sandstone. These features have been the source of some debate historically and are now explicable as resulting from hydrothermal activity within an ancient wrench fault system. This system is similar to the deep ...

PURPOSE The objective of this study was to compare torques applied by new and used manual torque devices for Morse-taper implants. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifteen ITI manual torque devices were tested. Those in group 1 (n = 5) were new (ie, never used), those in group 2 (n = 5) had been used 50 to 200 times, and those in group 3 (n = 5) had been used 500 to 1,000 times. The torques applied by ea...

The amygdala is clearly implicated in the processing of biologically relevant stimuli, particularly those that can lead to a state of fear. A new study by Herry, Bach and colleagues using both mouse and human subjects seemingly throws a wrench in the spokes by demonstrating that the amygdala is sensitive to non-biologically relevant stimuli (i.e. tones) when they occur in an unpredictable fashi...

A growing number of social scientists fear that marriage may be on the rocks and few doubt that matrimony, as we have known it, has undergone a wrenching period of change in the past several decades. Andrew Cherlin, a leading sociologist of the family, speaks of "the de-institutionalization of marriage," conceding a point to conservative commentators who have argued that marriage and the family...

This article analyzes the fallacy of wrenching from context, using the dialectical notionsof commitment and implicature as tools. The data, a set of key examples, is used tosharpen the conceptual borderlines around the related fallacies of straw man, accent,misquotation, and neglect of qualifications. According to the analysis, the maincharacteristics of wrenching from context a...
