Schildberg, Werner Masson, Nikola Lübbering, Wenzel Vogel, Sven Perner, Marta Stei, Sven Niepmann, Miriam Silaschi, Farhad Bakhtiary, Georg Nickenig, Sebastian Zimmer

“…Two weeks post-OVX, AVS was induced by mechanically injuring the aortic valve under echocardiographic guidance, with control procedures (CTR) in separate groups. After model validation, C57BL/6J mice were assigned to six groups: WI Sham Vehicle, WI OVX Vehicle, WI OVX ZA, WI Sham ZA, CTR OVX Vehicle, and CTR OVX ZA. …”

Elastodynamic modeling and analysis of a 4SRRR overconstrained parallel robot by B. Wang, Y. Zhao, C. Yang, X. Hu, Y. Zhao

“…<p>To address the unstructured on-site work requirements in shipyards and large-steel-structure manufacturing plants, this paper develops a 4SRRR (where S is spherical and R is rotational) quadruped wall-climbing robot, establishes a dynamic analytical model, and analyzes its natural frequencies. First, Timoshenko beam elements, which consider shear deformation, are used to replace Euler–Bernoulli beam elements, and the dynamic control equations for each element are established. …”
