Abstract   The simple passive dynamic walker can walk down a shallow downhill slope with no external control or energy input. Nevertheless, the period-one gait stability is only possible over a very narrow range of slopes. Since the passive gaits are extremely sensitive to slope angles, it is important to use a control strategy in order to achieve a wide range of stable walking. The computed to...

introduction agb (adjastable gastric bandin) is the most common method for treatment of obesity which is performed all around the world and provides a significant weight loss for patients. despite all its benefits as a method that requires the least intervention, complications such as gastric prolapse, stoma stenosis and migration band may also occur. these complications rarely result in mortal...

An element $a$ in a ring $R$ is very clean in case there exists‎ ‎an idempotent $ein R$ such that $ae = ea$ and either $a‎- ‎e$ or $a‎ + ‎e$ is invertible‎. ‎An element $a$ in a ring $R$ is very $J$-clean‎ ‎provided that there exists an idempotent $ein R$ such that $ae =‎ ‎ea$ and either $a-ein J(R)$ or $a‎ + ‎ein J(R)$‎. ‎Let $R$ be a‎ ‎local ring‎, ‎and let $sin C(R)$‎. ‎We prove that $Ain K_...

This article presents a theoretical and experimental framework for assessing the biases associated with the interpretation of numbers. This framework consists of having participants convert between different representations of quantities. These representations should include both variations in numerical labels that symbolize quantities and variations in displays in which quantity is inherent. F...

abstract introduction: nowadays, the advanced technology of designing electronic circuits in very small size and with very low power consumption has led to development of wearable and implantable medical devices. however, the electronic circuits need power supply that is usually provided by relatively large and heavy batteries. the discharged batteries have to replaced or recharged for long tim...
