Background: In infants with indications of upper cervical dysfunction, the Flexion-Rotation-Test and Lateral-Flexion-Test are used to indicate reduced upper cervical range-of-motion (ROM). In infants, the inter-rater reliability of these tests is unknown. Objective: To assess the inter-rater reliability …

This research explores current strategies and approaches directed to integrate innovative technologies in the home modification process to support independent living and ageing in place. The systematic review considered studies conducted from the perspective of architecture, smart technology, and gerontology. …

As a logical consequence of the advancements in automation of production of composite aircraft structures, more attention is paid to the automation of maintenance. Current repair procedures involve manual labour and exposure to harmful particles (such as dust, vapours) while final quality and evidencing …

Although there seems to be no causality between cervical spine (CS) manipulation and major adverse events (MAE), it remains important that manual therapists try to prevent every potential MAE. Although the validity of positional testing for vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI) has been questioned, recently, …

Introduction: In clinical practice AP pelvis standard protocols are suitable for average size patients. However, as the average body size has increased over the past decades, radiographers have had to improve their practice in order to ensure that adequate image quality with minimal radiation dose to …

This paper analyses the effects of using gamification in an educational context to mediate learning behaviours and attitudes. Particularly, the relationships between the independent variables of game mechanics, elements, and dynamics (MEDs) and the dependent variables of student holistic development. …

The Wavetek 75 is a programmable function generator that is used at Altran for generating arbitrary analog signals for various tests. The target for this project is to replace the Wavetek 75 with a device that simplifies defining an arbitrary signal. The Wavetek is outdated and it is very difficult to …
