Collaborative robots are increasingly present in our lives. The KUKA LBR iiwa equipped with the KUKA Sunrise.OS controller is a good example of a collaborative/sensitive robot. This paper presents a MATLAB Toolbox, the KUKA Sunrise Toolbox (KST), to interface KUKA Sunrise.OS using MATLAB. The KST contains functionalities for networking, real-time control, point-to-point motion, setters and gett...

Plastic encapsulated microcircuits with aluminum triple track structures were exposed to mixed flowing gas conditions to simulate and accelerate possible environments during long-term storage. No increase in resistance was measured and no corrosion products were observed after 800 h of accelerated exposure. Further experimentation indicated that chloride gas reacts with surface moisture in micr...

In many accelerator storage rings running positively charged beams, multipactoring due to secondary electron emission (SEE) in the beam pipe will give rise to an electron cloud which can cause beam blow-up or loss of the circulating beam. A preventative measure that suppresses electron cloud formation is to ensure that the vacuum wall has a low secondary emission yield (SEY). The SEY of thin fi...

Aim. To study serum concentrations of trace and macro elements their correlations in children adolescents after antitumor therapy, depending on the presence or absence caries. Materials methods. The included 98 patients aged 4 to 17 years who were remission an therapy performed for acute leukemia lymphomas. Patients with carious tooth lesions group 1 ( n = 34) without caries – 2 64). We used in...

The potential health hazards of radioelements taken into the body are well known (1, 2). The present study is part of a program designed to test the effect of zirconium and other sahs on the metabolism of long lived radioelements. It has been shown that the early administration of zirconium salts to experimental animals previously injected with plutonium (Pu”~~) and radioyttrium (Ygl) resulted ...

A systematic analysis of the mineral resource base (MRB) strategically important minerals for Ukrainian economy is carried out. Four categories strategic from point view their investment attractiveness are identified: traditional (iron, manganese, titanium, uranium, kaolin, sand molding, building stones, quartz raw materials, refractory clay); highly promising (rare earths, zirconium and hafniu...

Background and purpose - Registry-based studies have reported an increased risk of aseptic tibial loosening for the cemented Low Contact Stress (LCS) total knee replacement compared with other cemented designs; however, the reasons for this have not been established. We made a retrieval analysis with the aim of identifying the failure mechanism. Patients and methods - We collected implants, cem...

The challenges and demands of implant materials are changing as a result the substantial expansion in global population. Suitable implants required for aged people, physical injuries, patients who need revised surgeries, contaminated implants, accident victims. Hence, requirement is drastically increasing day by day. Metals, ceramics, polymers used biomedical industries long-term suffering pati...
