According to news reporting originating fr om Veszprem, Hungary, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "The design and functionality of the human-machine interface (HMI) significantly affects operat ional efficiency and safety related to process control." Funders for this research include Ministry of Culture And Innovation of Hungary. The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from University of Pa nnonia: "Alarm management techniques consider the cognitive model of operators, but mainly only from a signal perception point of view. To develop a human-centr ic alarm management system, the construction of an easy-to-use and supportive HM I is essential. This work suggests a development method that uses machine learni ng (ML) tools. The key idea is that more supportive higher-level HMI displays ca n be developed by analysing operator-related events in the process log file. The obtained process model contains relevant data on the relationship of the proces s events, enabling a network-like visualisation. Attributes of the network allow us to solve the minimisation problem of the ideal workflow-display relation." According to the news reporters, the research concluded: "The suggested approach allows a targeted process pattern exploration to design higher-level HMI displa ys with respect to content and hierarchy. The method was applied in a real-life hydrofluoric acid alkylation plant, where a proposal was made about the content of an overview display."

Funders for this research include National Science And Technology Council, Taiwa n; Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taiwan. Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Chang Gung Unive rsity: "However, prolonged training sessions may lead to both mental and muscle fatigue. We conducted two types of robot-assisted bimanual wrist exercises on 16 healthy adults, separated by one week: long-duration, lowresistance workouts a nd short-duration, high-resistance exercises. Various measures, including surfac e electromyograms, near-infrared spectroscopy, heart rate, and the Borg Rating o f Perceived Exertion scale, were employed to assess fatigue levels and the impac ts of exercise intensity. High-resistance exercise resulted in a more pronounced decline in electromyogram median frequency and recruited a greater amount of he moglobin, indicating increased muscle fatigue and a higher metabolic demand to c ope with the intensified workload. Additionally, high-resistance exercise led to increased sympathetic activation and a greater sense of exertion. Conversely, e ngaging in low-resistance exercises proved beneficial for reducing post-exercise muscle stiffness and enhancing muscle elasticity."

    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Surgery-Pancreatoduo denectomy is the subject of a report. According to news reporting from Amsterdam, Netherlands, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Although robotic pancrea toduodenectomy has shown promising outcomes in experienced high-volume centres, it is unclear whether implementation on a nationwide scale is safe and beneficia l. The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of the early experience wit h robotic pancreatoduodenectomy versus open pancreatoduodenectomy in the Netherl ands." The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Amsterdam Univer sity Medical Center, "This was a nationwide retrospective cohort study of all co nsecutive patients who underwent robotic pancreatoduodenectomy or open pancreato duodenectomy who were registered in the mandatory Dutch Pancreatic Cancer Audit (18 centres, 2014-2021), starting from the first robotic pancreatoduodenectomy p rocedure per centre. The main endpoints were major complications (Clavien-Dindo grade greater than or equal to III) and in-hospital/30-day mortality. Propensity -score matching (1 : 1) was used to minimize selection bias. Overall, 701 patien ts who underwent robotic pancreatoduodenectomy and 4447 patients who underwent o pen pancreatoduodenectomy were included. Among the eight centres that performed robotic pancreatoduodenectomy, the median robotic pancreatoduodenectomy experien ce was 86 (range 48-149), with a 7.3% conversion rate. After match ing (698 robotic pancreatoduodenectomy patients versus 698 open pancreatoduodene ctomy control patients), no significant differences were found in major complica tions (40.3% versus 36.2% respectively; P = 0.186), in-hospital/30-day mortality (4.0% versus 3.1% respe ctively; P = 0.326), and postoperative pancreatic fistula grade B/C (24.9% versus 23.5% respectively; P = 0.578). Robotic pancreatoduodenecto my was associated with a longer operating time (359 min versus 301 min; P<0.001), less intraoperative blood loss (200 ml versus 500 ml; P<0.001), fewer wound infections (7.4% versus 12.2%; P = 0.008), and a shorter hospital stay (11 days versus 12 days; P<0.001). Centres performing greater than or equal to 20 robotic pancreatoduodene ctomies annually had a lower mortality rate (2.9% versus 7.3% ; P = 0.009) and a lower conversion rate (6.3% versus 11.2% ; P = 0.032). This study indicates that robotic pancreatoduodenectomy was safely implemented nationwide, without significant differences in major morbidity and mortality compared with matched open pancreatoduodenectomy patients."

According to news reporting from Tianjin, People's Republic of Chin a, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Considering the flexibility of the t ransmission shaft system, this paper presents an approach for mechanical resonan ce suppression of the high-speed parallel robot based on fractional order distur bance observer." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Tianjin University: "Fi rst, in order to evaluate mechanical resonance, a decoupled mechatronic dynamics model is built. Based on the proposed decoupled dynamics model, the mechanical resonance under different influence factors is analyzed. Then, based on the thre e closed-loop control structure of servo system, a model-based parameter tuning method is adopted in the controller parameter tuning. Finally, inspired by the t raditional disturbance observer, a fractional order disturbance observer is esta blished by introducing a fractional order filter. Results show that due to the f lexibility of the transmission shaft system, under the combined action of mechan ical disturbance torque and electromagnetic driving torque, the joint transmissi on system will generate mechanical resonance phenomena." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "Therefore, this paper pr oposes a method for the mechanical resonance suppression of the high-speed paral lel robot based on the fractional order disturbance observer. And the proposed m ethod can be applied to other mechatronic device including flexible transmission shaft system."
