Carbon- and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP and GFRP) composite materials have been used in many industries such as aerospace and automobile because of their outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.The quality of these materials is important for safe operation.Nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques are an effective way t
Nowadays, road transport is used to move various loads in agriculture, in which automatic gearboxes are used.When the vehicles are moving, elements wear out, which leads to changes in parameters of technical condition of vehicles, reduction of efficiency of gear shifting or inability to move the vehicle.The key element in a variable speed gearbox w
Abstract Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an established treatment for end-stage arthritis, congenital deformity, and trauma with good long-term clinical and functional outcomes.Delayed sciatic nerve injury is a rare complication after THA that requires prompt diagnosis and management.Methods We present a case of sciatic nerve motor and s
We introduce the Xpuck swarm, a research platform with an aggregate raw processing power in excess of two teraflops.The swarm uses 16 e-puck robots augmented with custom hardware that uses the substantial CPU and GPU processing power available from modern whole wheat phyllo dough mobile system-on-chip devices.The augmented robots, called Xpucks, ha
