Sliding tactile perception is a basic function for human beings BOULARDI MAX to determine the mechanical properties of object surfaces and recognize materials.Imitating this process, this paper proposes a novel finger-shaped tactile sensor based on a thin piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film for surface texture measurement.A parallelog
This paper aims to problematize adult education in non-formal learning environments.An analysis of the policies of adult education and training in Portugal is presented, highlighting at local level the potential for personal, social and emancipation intervention practices developed in Community Intervention contexts and associated to the dimension
Design and laboratory test results of the strain transducer intended for monitoring and assessing stress states of pipelines sited in mining areas are presented in this paper.This transducer allows measuring strains of pipelines subjected to external forces - being the mining operations effect.Pipeline strains can have a direct influence on a ALOE
Mn doped ZnS samples with composition formula Zn1-xMn xS where x = 0, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.10 were prepared by chemical method.Samples characterized for its structural, morphological and optical properties by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform Eye Makeup infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-vis spectrometr
Introduction: Osteoporosis remains an undertreated disease entity causing substantial morbidity and mortality.Proximal humerus fractures are a common sentinel fracture, providing an opportunity to intervene with antiresorptive therapy before more subsequent fractures occur.Despite the success of programs aimed to improve postfracture osteoporosis r
