An infrared (IR) transcutaneous remote control was designed for use in the totally implantable middle ear system. Considering the IR reflection, absorption and scattering effect of the skin, the required IR radiant intensity is calculated. After we have implemented the designed control, the transcutaneous operation experiment was carried out using a porcine skin. key words: implantable middle e...

In case of engine failure, skilled pilots can save a helicopter from crashing by executing an emergency procedure known as autorotation. In autorotation, rather than relying on the engine to drive the main rotor, the pilot has to control the helicopter such that potential energy from altitude is transferred to rotor speed. In fact, maintaining a sufficiently high rotor speed is critical to reta...

This paper introduces a link-type tracked vehicle, which is developed for potential applications such as Ž re Ž ghting, handicapped assistance and mine detection in various hazardous environments. The vehicle consists of three parts — front frame, rear frame and body. The front frame is connected to the rear frame by a rotational passive adaptation mechanism, which is the driving mechanism of t...

— In this paper, we describe a new methodology applied to solving in-class problems. The aim is to increase the student's participation and motivation, and, consequently, the acquisition of knowledge and skill in digital systems. We present the use of an interactive docent tool, Educlick, which has been adapted to these problems' classes. Educlick is based on the use of electronic answer remote...

Nowadays, Effectiveness and benefits of mobile phone technologies appeared more than expected. During the recent decade, using of mobile phone improved from telephone call tools to a remote control, transfer messages and financial transactions tools. One of the most important challenges in the mservices area is the security issue. Different papers have discussed various aspects of secured netwo...

This paper reposts the results of an on-going project and investigates modelling and remote control issues of an industry excavator. The details of modelling, communication and control of a remotely controllable excavator are studied. The paper mainly focuses on trajectory tracking control of the excavator base and robust control of the excavator arm. These will provide the fundamental base for...

This paper presents LABNET, an internet-based remote laboratory for control engineering education developed at UEM-University. At present, the remote lab integrates three basic physical systems (level control, temperature control and ship stabilizing system). In this paper, the LABNET architecture is presented and discussed in detail. Issues concerned with local or remote feedback, automatic re...

Principal purpose of RENAM is a contiguous development of communication and information infrastructure of the scientific and educational community of the Republic of Moldova, creation of appropriate conditions for permanent network development for science and education by means of collaborated efforts of scientific and educational institutions; providing access to the national and foreign datab...

A study on future large accelerators [1] has considered a facility, which is designed, built and operated by a worldwide collaboration of equal partner institutions, and which is remote from most of these institutions. All operation modes were considered including trouble shooting, development, commissioning, maintenance, and repair. Experience from existing accelerators shows that most of thes...

Jumping is used in nature by many small animals to locomote in cluttered environments or in rough terrain. It offers small systems the benefit of overcoming relatively large obstacles at a low energetic cost. In order to be able to perform repetitive jumps in a given direction, it is important to be able to upright after landing, steer and jump again. In this article, we review and evaluate the...
