Variable stiffness mechanisms establish a bridge between rigid, precise robots and soft, compliant robots. In certain applications it is necessary to exert high forces while having compliance, such as ...

In this paper, the control method of the negative pressure adsorption system for crawling robots is designed. Through the logic control raw, the crawling robots can realize the cleaning and inspection ...

We aimed to identify the effect of suction pressure and catheter size on change in lung volume during open and closed endotracheal suction. Anesthetized piglets (n = 12) were intubated with a 4.0 ...

INTRODUCTION A small, randomized trial suggests that 1-hour positive pressure ventilation after a successful spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) on a T-piece may decrease extubation failure. (1) However ...
