Synthesis of a parametrically invariant servo drive using the model parameters recovery method by N. A. Malev

“…The parameters are identified by a searchless gradient algorithm while minimizing the discrepancy between the object of study and its inverse model, as well as restoring the coefficients of differential equations using integration and the corresponding computational procedures. An servo drive with negative position feedback is tuned to the modular optimum with a proportional controller whose coefficients are completely determined by the parameters to be identified. …”

Bacterial microbiota associated with raw plant-based meat analogue products and their influences on selective enrichment for Escherichia coli O157:H7 by Sabrina Capitani, Liam P. Brown, Catherine D. Carrillo, Calvin Ho-Fung Lau

“…Within the scope of food safety testing, to gain insights on the dynamics of the enrichment process for E. coli O157:H7 in accordance with the Health Canada reference method MFHPB-10, bacterial taxonomic analyses were conducted at different stages of the prescribed cultural procedures. Using both control and E. coli O157:H7-inoculated PBMA samples it was revealed that, independent of the presence of E. coli O157:H7, off-target bacteria of the Clostridium sensu stricto 1 genus were significantly enriched from the uncultured samples. …”

Robotic‐assisted hip and knee revision arthroplasty: A scoping review by Michele Venosa, Giandomenico Logroscino, Emilio Romanini, Gianpiero Cazzato, Giuseppe Petralia, Andrea Vespasiani, Giacomo Placella, Patrizio Caldora

“…While the advantages of robotic assistance in primary joint replacement surgery are relatively well known, its application in hip and knee revision surgery implies a more complex and challenging scenario. The procedures needed are inherently more difficult compared to primary arthroplasties because of considerable bone loss, scar tissue, compromised anatomical landmarks, and at times even damaged or eroded joint structures. …”
