Motion assists

The assembly of precision mechanics and technical microsystem components often requires joining work to be conducted in the micrometer range. Intelligent robot grabbing systems have been developed in order to achieve the join accuracy required. Motion-assisted systems are particularly suited for flexible offsetting of tolerances in short cycles. 

Molecular dynamics simulation is perhaps the most powerful computational technique available for obtaining information on time dependent properties of molecular or atomic motion in zeolite crystals. It is used to obtain thermodynamic quantities and detailed dynamical information on sorption and diffusion processes in zeolite systems. For instance, the extent to which intramolecular vibration and framework motion assist sorption and diffusion of molecules can be simulated. The major limitation is its inability to model diffusion of larger sorbed molecules and electronic polarisability due to the huge amount of computer time and memory requirements. However, with the improvement in supercomputers and improved computing facilities, the full application of M.D. simulation to zeolite studies is becoming feasible. 

Abstract— The motion assist method is investigated in the case of daily action of elderly people whose muscle forces decline or nursing hard work. Full-body suit with the elastic elements along the muscle which acts motion assist function seems to assist the muscle load. 

Keywords— Motion assists, full-body suit, muscular activity. 

One of the important contributions to electrolyte research coming from the NMR measurements is the recognition of ion conduction taking place predominantly in the amorphous phase of the electrolyte and only at temperatures above the glass transition of this phase. These results were obtained by motional narrowing studies, where the linewidth of resulting spectral bands is studied as a function of temperature. The results indicate that the ionic mobility is closely connected to the mobility of the polymer chains and a segmental motion-assisted ion-transport mechanism has been proposed and is now broadly accepted in the polymer electrolyte community. 

This is no longer the case when (iii) motion along the reaction patir occurs on a time scale comparable to other relaxation times of the solute or the solvent, i.e. the system is partially non-relaxed. In this situation dynamic effects have to be taken into account explicitly, such as solvent-assisted intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) in the solute, solvent-induced electronic surface hopping, dephasing, solute-solvent energy transfer, dynamic caging, rotational relaxation, or solvent dielectric and momentum relaxation. 

The natural process of bringing particles and polyelectrolytes together by Brownian motion, ie, perikinetic flocculation, often is assisted by orthokinetic flocculation which increases particle coUisions through the motion of the fluid and velocity gradients in the flow. This is the idea behind the use of in-line mixers or paddle-type flocculators in front of some separation equipment like gravity clarifiers. The rate of flocculation in clarifiers is also increased by recycling the floes to increase the rate of particle—particle coUisions through the increase in soUds concentration.

In this example, the second and third steps are simultaneous. It is also possible for the second and third steps to be simultaneous even when the third step involves more than just a simple motion of a pair of electrons. Similarly, there are many reactions in which the first two steps are simultaneous that is, there is no actual formation of a species such as 2 or 3. In these instances, it may be said that R assists in the removal of the leaving group, with migration of R and the removal of the leaving group taking place simultaneously. Many investigations have been carried out in attempts to determine, in various reactions, whether such intermediates as 2 or 3 actually form, or whether the steps are simultaneous (see, e.g., the discussions on pp. 1381, 1411), but the difference between the two possibilities is often subtle, and the question is not always easily answered." ... 

In these complexes, the cations coordinate with the oxygen atoms of the backbone and, under the influence of an electrical potential, they are transferred from an oxygen atom to another through the amorphous region of the polymer assisted by the segmental motion of the polymer backbone. 

DSP crystal, a detailed picture of the lattice motion and related displacements was constructed and related to the topochemical postulate and the mechanism of phonon assistance. Holm and Zienty (1972) have measured the quantum yield for the overall polymerization process of a,a -bis(4-acetoxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-p-benzenediacetonitrile (AMBBA) crystals in slurries and reported it to be 0.7 on the basis of the disappearance of two double bonds ( = 1.4 if assigned on the basis of the number of double bonds consumed). 

In summary, the quantitative information on the frequencies, amplitudes, and directions of Fe motion from NIS measurements provides a definitive test of the detailed normal-mode predictions provided by modem quantum chemical calculations. However, first-principles calculations greatly assist in the analysis and interpretation of experimental NIS data, thus revealing a consistent picture of the vibrational dynamics of iron in molecules. 

Occupational and physical therapy may help patients to preserve joint function, extend joint range of motion, and strengthen joints and muscles through strengthening exercises. Patients with joint deformities may benefit from the use of mobility or assistive devices that help to minimize disability and allow continued activities of daily living. In situations where the disease has progressed to a severe form with extensive...
