Feasibility Study of a Balanced Upper Arm Orthosis based on Bending Beams
People with neuromuscular diseases request an orthosis close to the body for assistance with their arm movements. This paper proposes a concept for a passive arm support that is close to the body and is based on bending beams. Simulations resulted in the final configuration and dimensions of the beams, optimised to balance an arm. One Carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer beam with dimensions 0.22x0.0041x0.0027m at the medial side and one at the lateral side of the upper arm delivers the required energy for balancing the arm. Experimental evaluation of a prototype demonstrated the technical principle; more than 87% of the moment around the shoulder was balanced between 0 and 1.1rad. A second prototype was built for preliminary evaluation of the concept in relation to the body. The width of the elastic and structural elements was more than four times smaller than in present arm supports. From this it was concluded that bending beams have the potential to make an orthosis that is closer to the upper arm than current orthoses.BMEBioMechanical EngineeringMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin

J.L. Brierly and The Modernization of International Law
In this Article, the author provides an analysis of a classic of international law, The Law of Nations, by J.L. Brierly. The author describes Brierly as an international legal scholar whose modernization of international law involves an emphasis on fact and complexity, an emphasis that is ultimately little more than a gesture. The author then examines the narrative structure of The Law of Nations and indicates the normative messages disclosed in Brierly\u27s telling of the story of international law. Finally, the author describes Brierly\u27s effort to describe international law as occupying a political realm while Brierly\u27s evolutionary optimism made him anything but a political realist. In short, the author sees in Brierly\u27s promises of complexity and realism a thinly veiled simplicity that would be subsumed into the orthodoxies of international legal thought
Experimental application of a dynamic observer to capture and predict the dynamics of a flat-plate boundary layer
The recent approach, proposed by Guzman-Inigo et al. \cite{GuzmanInigo2014}, using System Identification to derive a Reduced Order Model from snapshots of a flow is applied to a transitional boundary layer growing over a flat-plate. It is shown that such an approach can indeed be applied to experimental PIV snapshots. Using a proper learning dataset and a proper local sensor, it is shown that the evolution of boundary layer can be properly estimated from the time evolution of the local probe and with no more than ten POD modes for the Reduced Order Model. The influence of the various parameters on the efficiency of the system identification technique is discussed
Interoperability in the networked design infrastructure
Interoperability, the ability of different software applications to communicate with each other, is one of the biggest challenges for efficient and effective use of advanced software technology in structural design and engineering. In practice, the problem of interoperability exists very much for the end-user since agreement on common standards does not exist despite the many efforts over the years. This paper discusses an approach to interoperability based on the assumption that one final common standard will probably never exist and that a more practical federated approach needs to be taken. In this paper the author demonstrates the concepts which a new conceptual infrastructure, called NetworkedDesign, provides to address the challenges of interoperability. The infrastructure contains a rich set of concepts for the user to express information through lightweight open objects and logical constructs which can be used as a basis for an ad hoc standard between applications.Structural EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
