Medicine in Europe: Complementary medicine in Europe

Complementary or unconventional treatments are used by many doctors and other therapists throughout Europe. The major forms are acupuncture, homoeopathy, manual therapy or manipulation, and phytotherapy or herbal medicine. The relative popu...

The Traditional Medicine and Modern Medicine from Natural Products

Natural products and traditional medicines are of great importance. Such forms of medicine as traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, Kampo, traditional Korean medicine, and Unani have been practiced in some areas of the world and have blos...

A novel sensor-based assessment of lower limb spasticity in children with cerebral palsy

Abstract Background To provide effective interventions for spasticity, accurate and reliable spasticity assessment is essential. For the assessment, the Modified Tardieu Scale (MTS) has been widely used owing to its simplicity and convenien...

Design, analysis, and experimental research on installation robot for hanging column

Abstract To address the challenges of labor-intensive operations, high safety risks, and low operational efficiency in the installation of hanging columns within tunnels, we propose a robotics-based mechanized and automated solution. First,...

Discriminating Similar Naval Vessels Using YOLOv8 Deep Neural Network

The next generation of United States Navy uncrewed aerial systems (UASs) is expected to operate in global positioning system and radio frequency-denied maritime environments. In these challenging conditions, these UASs must accurately ident...

Decentralized Cooperative Localization Approach for Autonomous Multirobot Systems

This study proposes the use of a split covariance intersection algorithm (Split-CI) for decentralized multirobot cooperative localization. In the proposed method, each robot maintains a local cubature Kalman filter to estimate its own pose ...

Embedded Sensor Data Fusion and TinyML for Real-Time Remaining Useful Life Estimation of UAV Li Polymer Batteries

The accurate real-time estimation of the remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium-polymer (LiPo) batteries is a critical enabler for ensuring the safety, reliability, and operational efficiency of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Nevertheless...
