A Telerehabilitation System for the Selection, Evaluation and Remote Management of Therapies
(MDPI, 2018-05)
Telerehabilitation systems that support physical therapy sessions anywhere can help save healthcare costs while also improving the quality of life of the users that need rehabilitation. The main contribution of this paper ...
Efficient assembly of bolted joints under external loads using numerical FEM
(Elsevier, 2018-05-16)
Several factors can cause leakages in a bolted flange connection, external loads being the
most important one. External loads such as those produced by misalignment introduce an
external axial load combined with a bending ...
Exploring Caffeine–Phenol Interactions by the Inseparable Duet of Experimental and Theoretical Data
(Wiley, 2019-11)
Intermolecular interactions are difficult to model, especially in systems formed by multiple interactions. Such is the case of caffeine–phenol. Structural data has been extracted by using mass-resolved excitation spectroscopy ...
Load distribution and friction torque in four-point contact slewing bearings considering manufacturing errors and ring flexibility
(Elsevier, 2019-03-16)
This work introduces a methodology for the calculation of the load distribution in four-point contact slewing bearings
considering ball preload, manufacturing errors and ring flexibility. The model is built by the formulation ...

Friction torque in four-point contact slewing bearings: applicability and limitations of current analytical formulations
(Elsevier, 2017-11)
The friction torque is a key parameter in the design of slewing bearings. The most challenging issue in its calculation
resides in the modelling of rolling element contact mechanics. In this manuscript two models for the ...
An engineering approach for the estimation of slewing bearing stiffness in Wind Turbine Generators
(Wiley, 2018-11-30)
The stiffness of yaw and pitch slewing bearings has a critical influence on the structural
behaviour of Wind Turbine Generators. Thus, it is commonly required by designers for
their simulations to estimate deformations ...
Static structural behaviour of wire bearings: comparison with conventional bearings and study of design and operational parameters
(Elsevier, 2018-10-28)
In wire bearings the rolling process occurs on raceways machined on steel wires, and the rings are
made of light materials such as aluminium. This particular architecture provides both weight and
inertia savings, but ...
Possible therapeutic doses of cannabinoid type 1 receptor antagonist reverses key alterations in fragile X syndrome mouse model
(MDPI, 2016-08)
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common monogenetic cause of intellectual disability. The cognitive deficits in the mouse model for this disorder, the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (Fmr1) knockout (KO) mouse, have ...
