This paper investigates the locomotion of a walking robot by delivering a comparative study of three different biologically inspired walking gaits, namely: tripod, ripple, and wave, in terms of ground slippage they experience while walking.The objective of this study is to identify the gait model which experiences the minimum slippage while walking

The fast and precise fabrication of three-dimensional (3-D) structures made of nanofibers is an important development trend in the electrospinning technique.This paper Socks describes a new and facile method of electrospinning to fabricate nanofibrous 3-D structures.The nanofibrous 3-D structures can be engineered to have the desired layer thicknes

Being a rare clinical entity, discal cyst presents indistinguishably from other causes of lower back pain and radiculopathy.It is an extremely rare pathology with unclear pathogenesis, indeterminate natural history with no consensus on the ideal management of the condition.We report a rare case of discal cyst in a Gotu Kola patient who presented to
