This research addresses the obstacle avoidance problem in wheeled mobile robots powered by renewable energy by considering all subsystems involved.A three-tier hierarchical controller is developed, integrating the technique of artificial potential fields.The proposed controller incorporates the dynamics of the three key subsystems typically found i
INTRODUCTION: The loss of parenchymal brain volume per normative age comparison is a distinctive feature of brain atrophy.While the condition is the most prevalent to elderly, it has also been observed in pediatric ages.Various causes such as trauma, infection, and malnutrition have been reported to trigger the loss of brain tissues volume.Despite
Objective: Blood-oxygen-level-dependent functional MRI allows to investigte neural activities and connectivity.While the non-human primate plays an essential role in neuroscience research, multimodal methods combining functional MRI with other neuroimaging and neuromodulation enable us to understand the brain network at multiple scales.Approach: In
This paper explores the strong potential of chemical mining of wastewater for markers of community-wide intake of wide-ranging harmful chemicals belonging to several usage groups: industrial chemicals, personal care products, pesticides, illicit drugs, lifestyle chemicals and prescription pharmaceuticals as a proxy for multi-chemical community-wide
