Etched multilayers obtained by forming a laminar grating pattern within interferential multilayer mirrors are used in the soft x-ray range to improve the spectral resolution of wavelength dispersive spectrometers equipped with periodic multilayers. We describe the fabrication process of such an etched multilayer dispersive element, its characterizationthrough reflectivity measurement and simula...

Rice improvement breeding is one of the most important research fields in China. With the development of modern rice breeding technology, hundreds to thousands of new varieties are produced daily, creating the impetus for rapid plant phenotyping evaluation. However, traditional measurement is inefficiency, contact-interferential, and lack-objectivity. Thus a high-throughput and automatic extrac...

In this work, an inverse dynamic control method is developed to enhance tracking performance of industrial robots, which effectively deal with the nonlinear dynamic interferential forces. In general, the DFF (Dynamic Feed-Forward) controller and the CTM (Computed-Torque Method) controller are used for dynamic control for industrial robots. We study on the practical issues for implementing these...

BACKGROUND Patellar tendinopathy has a high prevalence rate among athletes. Different therapeutic options can be found in the current literature, but none of them has been clearly established as the gold standard. The purpose of this study is to compare, in a randomized controlled trial, the clinical efficacy of eccentric exercise combined with either an ultrasound-guided galvanic electrolysis ...
