Coherent Diffraction Radiation experiment at CTF3—Simulation studies
A two-target model was developed for the simulations of Coherent Diffraction Radiation (CDR) phenomenon for the experiment at the CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3 at CERN). The model is based on a classical DR theory. The radiation distribution from the targets, as a function of the angle and the frequency, was calculated for the first and the second target separately in order to understand how the final radiation distribution from the two targets, working as a system, is formed. The final radiation distribution of destructive interference between the two targets was obtained as well. The distributions were calculated for the working parameters of both the CTF3 and the experimental setup and were used for a single-electron spectrum calculation, required for the bunch profile reconstruction

Development and Evaluation of a Cost-effective IMU System for Gait Analysis: Comparison with Vicon and VideoPose3D Algorithms
This study aimed to develop and evaluate a costeffective Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) system for gait analysis, comparing its performance with the Vicon system and the VideoPose3D algorithm. The system comprises five calibrated sensors and a mobile app to measure lower body orientation during gait and stair climbing. Eight healthy participants were involved in the experiment, each performing ten repetitions to analyze hip and knee flexion angles. The IMU system demonstrated significantly lower mean square error than deep learning-based approaches and comparable results to the Vicon system, indicating its potential for clinical and research applications

Supplementary information files for 'A variability taxonomy to support automation decision-making for manufacturing processes'Abstract:Although many manual operations have been replaced by automation in the manufacturing domain, in various industries skilled operators still carry out critical manual tasks such as final assembly. The business case for automation in these areas is difficult to justify due to increased complexity and costs arising out of process variabilities associated with those tasks. The lack of understanding of process variability in automation design means that industrial automation often does not realise the full benefits at the first attempt, resulting in the need to spend additional resource and time, to fully realise the potential. This article describes a taxonomy of variability when considering automation of manufacturing processes. Three industrial case studies were analysed to develop the proposed taxonomy. The results obtained from the taxonomy are discussed with a further case study to demonstrate its value in supporting automation decision-making.</div
