Biomimetic approaches to the control of underwater walking machines.
We have developed a biomimetic robot based on the American lobster. The robot is designed to achieve the performance advantages of the animal model by adopting biomechanical features and neurobiological control principles. Three types of controllers are described. The first is a state machine based on the connectivity and dynamics of the lobster central pattern generator (CPG). The state machin...
متن کاملCell interactions with biomaterials gradients and arrays.
Gradients and arrays have become very useful to the fields of tissue engineering and biomaterials. Both gradients and arrays make efficient platforms for screening cell response to biomaterials. Graded biomaterials also have functional applications and make useful substrates for fundamental studies of cell phenomena such as migration. This article will review the use of gradients and arrays in ...
متن کاملBiomimetic and organocatalytic approaches to oxidation catalysis*
The lecture summarized our recent work in the fields of (i) catalytic asymmetric epoxidation and cyclopropanation, (ii) C–C coupling reactions, and (iii) dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR). The first section describes the use of chiral Ru-porphyrins as catalysts for the asymmetric epoxidation and cyclopropanation of nonfunctionalized olefins, and of peptides and alkaloid-based phase-transfer cata...
متن کاملTotal and soluble fluoride concentration of toothpastes available in Iran
Objective: Using fluoridated toothpaste is one of the effective preventive methods of dental caries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the total and soluble fluoride concentration in different toothpastes available in the Iranian market. Methods & Materials: In this study, total and soluble fluoride concentration of eight brands of Iranian and five brands of non-Iranian toothpastes wer...
متن کاملSynthesis of biomimetic segmented polyurethanes as antifouling biomaterials.
Controlling the non-specific adsorption of proteins, cells and bacteria onto biomaterial surfaces is of crucial importance for the development of medical devices with specific levels of performance. Among the strategies pursued to control the interactions between material surfaces and biological tissues, the immobilization of non-fouling polymers on biomaterial surfaces as well as the synthesis...
