A new conceptually simple approach to controlling compliant motions of a robot manipulator
is presented. The “hybrid” technique described combines force and torque information with …

Kinematic and control issues are discussed in the context of an articulated, multifinger
mechanical hand. Hand designs with particular mobility properties are illustrated, and a …

When an accurate dynamic model of a mechanical manipu lator is available, it may be used
in a nonlinear, model-based scheme to control the manipulator. Such a control formula tion …

Virtually all manipulators at work in factories today repeat their motions in cycles.
Unfortunatly, whatever errors may exist in repeating a trajectory are also repeated from cycle …

The feasibility of applying robot manipulators to complex handling and assembly problems
in indus try and space depends on the ability to control manipulators precisely, even when …

Objective: In the general population, folic acid supplementation during pregnancy has been
demonstrated to reduce the frequency of neural tube defects (NTDs) and other major …

Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is an enigmatic condition with protean
manifestations. It often goes unrecognised, leading to delays in its diagnosis and treatment …

Objective: To compare the risk of spontaneous abortions and stillbirth associated with
maternal use of different antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). Methods: The EURAP registry is an …

Objectives After 20 years of data collection, pregnancy registers have informed prescribing
practice. Various populations show trends for a reduction in valproate prescribing, which is …

Over the last 50 years there has been a significant increase in our understanding of the
issues faced by women with epilepsy, in both planning and undertaking pregnancy. The …
