A novel design process of low cost 3D printed ambidextrous finger designed for an ambidextrous robotic hand

This paper presents the novel mechanical design of an ambidextrous finger specifically designed for an ambidextrous anthropomorphic robotic hand actuated by pneumatic artificial muscles. The ambidextrous nature of design allows fingers to perform both left and right hand movements. The aim of our design is to reduce the number of actuators, increase the range of movements with best possible range ideally greater than a common human finger. Four prototypes are discussed in this paper; first prototype is focused on the choice of material and to consider the possible ways to reduce friction. Second prototype is designed to investigate the tendons routing configurations. Aim of third and fourth prototype is to improve the overall performance and to maximize the grasping force. Finally, a unified design (Final design) is presented in great detail. Comparison of all prototypes is done from different angles to evaluate the best design. The kinematic features of intermediate mode have been analysed to optimize both the flexibility and the robustness of the system, as well as to minimize the number of pneumatic muscles. The final design of an ambidextrous finger has developed, tested and 3D printed

Fit to practise? Processes for dealing with misconduct among pharmacists in Australia, Canada, the UK and US

© 2018 Elsevier Inc.In many countries with legal systems based on English common law, pharmacy regulators have a responsibility to protect, promote and maintain the health and safety of patients. Where there is a potential risk to patient safety, or where the public's confidence in pharmacy could be adversely affected by the actions of a pharmacist, these regulators have a statutory duty to investigate concerns. The legal provisions underpinning each jurisdiction's disciplinary processes depict distinctive outlooks from the different authorities, as each works towards the same goal. Legal statues, regulations, rules, and guidance affecting the disciplinary process in Great Britain, Australia, New York and New Brunswick were collated, and the processes they describe were attached to a common process flow diagram for step-by-step evaluation of their respective legal provisions. The initial stages of the respective investigation process are broadly similar in all the jurisdictions examined; however, each process has subtle differences that afford some level of advantage or disadvantage over its comparators. Factors including: how matters of discipline are framed; the existence of a separate process for minor and uncontested violations; the ability to effect an interim suspension of a practitioner's license; threshold criteria for escalation of complaints; the membership of disciplinary panels; and the perceived independence of these panels all philosophically affect the public safety remit of each regulator. This work constitutes the first comparison of international regulatory frameworks for the profession of pharmacy. Of the four jurisdictions examined, Great Britain most clearly acts in the interest of the public and the profession – rather than the respondent pharmacist – at every step of its process.Peer reviewe

Penggunaan Jamur Endofit Untuk Mengendalikan Fusarium Oxysporum F.sp. Capsici Dan Alternaria Solani Secara in Vitro

Using of endophytic fungi to control Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. capsici and Alternaria solani invitro. This research aimed to know effectivity of endophytic fungi to control F. oxysporum f.sp.capsici and A. solani in vitro. This research was conducted on Plant Disease Laboratory, Faculty ofAgriculture, University of North Sumatera, used Randomized Complete Design with two factors intwo replicates. First factor was kind of pathogen (F. oxysporum f.sp. capsici and A.solani). Secondfactor was kind of endophytic (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9, E10, E11, E12, E13, E14 andE15). The result showed that kind of phatogen, kind of endophytic and interaction between them sosignificantly effect on inhibiting zone, growth width of colony and diameter of colony. The bestresult was showed on E6 and E3 to control F. oxysporum and A. solani with 56.89% and 54.10 %inhibiting zone

Saccharin test of mucociliary clearance in Kartagener's syndrome

Saccharin test is a method for estimating mucociliary clearance in the upper respiratory passage. Its application in a clinically diagnosed patient with Kartagener's syndrome is reported

Psychoeducation group for parents who raise a child with autism spectrum disorder

The aim of the research is to know how the impact of psychoeducation group to the level of parenting stress of parents who raise a child with autism spectrum disorder. This research used quasi experimental method with the design of the untreated control group with dependent pretest and posttest samples. This research involved 25 parents  (20 mothers and 5 fathers) who raise a child with autism spectrum disorder divided into two groups, experimental group and  the control group. The experimental group has received psychoeducation treatment with ecological approach for two months (8 meetings, conducted once a week). This research used Scale of Parenting Stress, observation, test of knowledge about parenting of children with autism spectrum disorder, and sheet of evaluation of psychoeducationactivities  in collecting the data. The result of the analysis with mixed anovahave shown that psychoeducation group has no effect to the level  of parenting stress (F = 0,697 p > 0,05). The result of check manipulation have shown that the knowledge of subject on parenting of children with autism increase after join in the psychoeducation group

Algoritma Komputasi Cerdas Untuk Prediksi Jumlah Pengguna Kendaraan Sebagai Indikator Rawan Macet

Pertumbuhan jumlah kendaraan bermotor yang tinggi menimbulkan permasalahan kemacetan sehingga memerlukan suatu solusi untuk menanganinya. Jalan rawan macet diketahui berdasarkan banyak kendaraan yang lewat dalam rentang waktu tertentu. Bahasan makalah ini adalah penggunaan algoritma komputasi cerdas, multi layer perceptron, k-means dan particle swarm optimization (PSO), untuk melakukan peramalan jalan rawan macet berdasarkan jumlah pengguna jalan. Sumber data diambil dari pengamatan lapangan yang digunakan dalam pembangkitan bilangan acak untuk distribusi uniform, eksponensial dan normal. Prediksi tingkat kepadatan jalan di suatu rentang waktu dengan jaringan saraf menunjukkan hasil lebih baik apabila data pembelajaran juga diambil dari waktu yang sama dengan sejumlah hari sebelumnya (seminggu sampai sebulan). Sedangkan penggunaan k-means+PSO untuk optimasi pengelompokkan jalan berdasarkan kepadatannya membutuhkan data belajar dengan rentang waktu lebih pendek (10 menit di hari kerja untuk mobil dan motor)

The molecular basis of host specialization in bean pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae

Biotrophic phytopathogens are typically limited to their adapted host range. In recent decades, investigations have teased apart the general molecular basis of intraspecific variation for innate immunity of plants, typically involving receptor proteins that enable perception of pathogen-associated molecular patterns or avirulence elicitors from the pathogen as triggers for defense induction. However, general consensus concerning evolutionary and molecular factors that alter host range across closely related phytopathogen isolates has been more elusive. Here, through genome comparisons and genetic manipulations, we investigate the underlying mechanisms that structure host range across closely related strains of Pseudomonas syringae isolated from different legume hosts. Although type III secretionindependent virulence factors are conserved across these three strains, we find that the presence of two genes encoding type III effectors (hopC1 and hopM1) and the absence of another (avrB2) potentially contribute to host range differences between pathovars glycinea and phaseolicola. These findings reinforce the idea that a complex genetic basis underlies host range evolution in plant pathogens. This complexity is present even in host–microbe interactions featuring relatively little divergence among both hosts and their adapted pathogens
