This Bed linen study mainly focuses on the structural design, acoustic performance prediction, and experimental validation of a novel composite sound absorber that is similar to the feather surface structure of barn owls.The composite sound absorber is composed of an ultra-light nanofibrous membrane backed with a substrate porous materials layer (N

The use of wild-growing Prunus L. species in breeding adaptive dwarf rootstocks of peach
All modern technologies of peach cultivation are focused on the use of clonal, mainly dwarf, rootstocks.Technical efficiency and resistance to pathogens are also important.The work on the creation of such clonal rootstocks of peach is carried out at the Krymsk Experiment Breeding Station (EBS), a branch of VIR, on the basis of the stone fruit crop
Haptic Adaptive Feedback to Promote Motor Learning With a Robotic Ankle Exoskeleton Integrated With a Video Game
Background: Robotic devices have been used to rehabilitate walking function after stroke.Although results suggest that post-stroke patients benefit from this non-conventional therapy, there is no agreement on the optimal robot-assisted approaches to promote neurorecovery.Here we present a new robotic therapy protocol using a grounded exoskeleton pe
