    Empowering and assisting natural human mobility: The simbiosis walker

    No full text
    This paper presents the complete development of the Simbiosis Smart Walker. The device is equipped with a set of sensor subsystems to acquire user-machine interaction forces and the temporal evolution of user's feet during gait. The authors present an adaptive filtering technique used for the identification and separation of different components found on the human-machine interaction forces. This technique allowed isolating the components related with the navigational commands and developing a Fuzzy logic controller to guide the device. The Smart Walker was clinically validated at the Spinal Cord Injury Hospital of Toledo - Spain, presenting great acceptability by spinal chord injury patients and clinical staf

    "I don’t really like tedious, monotonous work": working-class young women, service sector employment and social mobility in contemporary Russia

    No full text
    This article contributes a global perspective to the emerging literature on girlhood in western contexts by examining the changing shape of transitions to adulthood amongst working-class young women in St. Petersburg, Russia. As in many western countries, new forms of service sector employment and an increasingly accessible higher education system appear to offer young women new prospects for social mobility. In contrast to the increasingly impoverished and denigrated traditional pathways into work, the young women in the study derive significant value from these new opportunities, constructing narratives of self-actualisation and approximating notions of respectable femininity. Nevertheless, actual social mobility is elusive, as familiar patterns of classed and gendered stratification limit their prospects. Despite its specificity, the case thus further illustrates the limited nature of the transformations available to young women through the new forms of education and work characteristic of global neoliberal contexts

    Transcript (19 pages) of an interview by Michael McClane with Seth Walker at Salt Lake City on 4 November 2011. Part of the Occupy Salt Lake City Oral History Project, Everett Cooley Collection tape no. U-3108Seth Walker, a traveling poet and activist, traveled from Michigan to join the Occupy Salt Lake City movement and is currently part of the Federal Reserve front. Though he has spent a number of years on the road, Seth views Salt Lake City as a sort of home. He speaks to the diversity of tactics of the protesters and the consensus model practiced by Occupiers at the Fed. More importantly, Seth shares abstract philosophical commentary on his personal ideals and how they influence his current activism. The concrete political issues that concern him as a participant in the Occupy movement are corporate personhood and lobbying practices, which in his view indicate a moral decline in the American political and global economic systems.
