Comparing the Active, Functional, and Passive Range of Motion of Finger Joints Using Dynamic Measurement

Studies on finger kinematics, especially the range of motion (RoM) measurements, are essential to understand the use of finger joints and the pathology of related disease. Limited literatures compared the active RoM (A-RoM) of finger joints with either their functional RoM (F-RoM) or passive RoM (p-RoM) using different measuring protocols and...

Modelling of methane production and emissions

This chapter provides a review of the models available for estimating the production and emission of methane from wastewater collection and treatment systems. The details of a number of mechanistic models as well as the simplified empirical models have been summarized. Their limitations have been identified and general methods for calibration...

Advances in delamination modeling of metal/polymer systems: Atomistic aspects

Adhesion and delamination have been pervasive problems hampering the performance and reliability of micro-and nano-electronic devices. In order to understand, predict, and ultimately prevent interface failure in electronic devices, development of accurate, robust, and efficient delamination testing and prediction methods is crucial. Adhesion...
