The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a lipid signaling system involved in numerous physiological processes, such as endocrine homeostasis, appetite control, energy balance, and metabolism. The ECS comprises endocannabinoids, their cognate receptors, and the enzymatic machinery that tightly regulates their levels within tissues. This system has been ...

This paper combines empirical observations, kinematic analysis, and numerical simulation to investigate slope failure susceptibility, with practical implications for regional infrastructure projects. Six slopes along the R37 road were analyzed to assess the impact of strata orientation and water presence on slope stability. The results indicate tha...

This study presents the design and a thorough analysis of a six-bar crank-driven leg mechanism integrated with a skew pantograph, developed for walking robots. The mechanism’s dimensions were optimized using a rigorous dimensional synthesis process in GIM software (version 2024). Subsequently, a detailed kinematic analysis was performed in GIM to s...

The traditional shrub fruits harvesting method is manual picking, while the efficiency is low, which seriously restricts the development of Lycium barbarum L. industry. In order to mechanize the harvesting process of Lycium barbarum L. and improve the correct picking rate while reducing the damage rate of Lycium barbarum L. harvesting, it is very i...

Helical grinding is crucial for manufacturing small holes in hard-to-machine composite ceramics. This study introduces a geometric model of undeformed chips to analyze the cutting characteristics of abrasive grains on both the bottom and side edges of the tool. It reveals for the first time that the distribution of cutting grains—pure bottom-edge, ...

An inertial measurement system, using a combination of accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers, is of great interest to capture tennis movements. We have assessed the key biomechanical moments of the serve phases and events, as well as the kinematic metrics during the serve, to analyze their influence on serve speed. Eighteen male competitive ...

Physiological hand tremors, twitching, and the nonlinear characteristics of the relationship between surgical forceps clamping force and operating force seriously affect the clamping accuracy of surgical instruments. To address this problem, a new type of surgical forceps with a force-holding function was developed to replace traditional forceps, w...

Hexapod robots have gained significant attention due to their potential applications in complex terrains and dynamic environments. However, traditional inverse kinematics approaches often face challenges in meeting the precision required for adaptive omnidirectional movement. This work introduces a novel approach to addressing these challenges thro...
