Objective PCOS is the most frequent female endocrine disorder, affecting 5%-10% of women, is characterized by hyperandrogenism, oligo-/anovulation, and polycystic ovaries. The aim of the present research is to evaluate the expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) and CYP19 (aromatase) mRNA in the ovary of EV-induced PCOS rat model and the effect of the treadmill and running w...

This article presents a novel 3D inverted pendulum that can balance on one of its corners using only single reaction wheel. is achieved by careful design the mass moment inertia in such way along two principal tilt axes significantly different. The consequence time-scale separation underlying dynamics, which renders system controllable. We show controllability maximized when ratio values amount...

A controller for a miniature wheel loader is developed to scoop rock piles autonomously. During a scooping task operation, the load of the bucket varies momentarily according to the phase of scooping. Before the insertion of the bucket into the rock pile, the load is just the bucket weight, but after the insertion the reaction force from the rock piles is applied to the bucket. The values of th...

When a plant is rotated on a clinostat, with its axis parallel to the ground, the axis may remain straight. According to Sachs (9), the successive stimuli of gravity compensate each other and, therefore, there is no tropic reaction. Czapek (4) on the other hand, felt that under these conditions, there is no perception of the gravity by the plant and consequently no tropic reaction. In connectio...

In uncoupled steering systems such as drive by wire, it is necessary for the driver to feel a simulated reaction torque related to tire/road interactions. To investigate this haptic necessity, we constructed a simple stationary force feedback steering wheel. This paper describes a low cost force feedback steering wheel system and introduces several driving events to validate the unit’s fidelity...

Securing appropriate driver responses to conflicts is essential in automation that not perfect (because the needed as a fall-back for system limitations and failures). However, this recognized major challenge human factors literature. Moreover, in-depth knowledge lacking regarding mechanisms affecting response process. The first aim of study was investigate how conflict while using highly relia...
