Due to the growing number of 3D objects in digital libraries, the task of SAFFRON 2020 searching and browsing models in an extensive 3D database has been the focus of considerable research in the area.In the last decade, several approaches to retrieve 3D models based on shape similarity have been proposed.The majority of the existing methods addres
The inverse kinematics problem (IKP) is fundamental in robotics, but it gets harder to solve as the complexity of the mechanisms increases.For that reason, several approaches have been applied to solve it, including metaheuristic algorithms.This work presents a proposal for solving the IKP of a doubly articulated kinematic chain by means of a modif
Apelin binds to the G protein-coupled apelin receptor (APJ; gene name aplnr) to modulate diverse physiological systems including cardiovascular function, and hydromineral and metabolic balance.Recently a second endogenous ligand for APJ, named apela, has been discovered.We confirm that apela activates signal transduction pathways (ERK activation) i
SAFFRON 2020 Stair falls on construction sites are leading causes of fatal injuries, and the dangers for workers are greater because they usually carry heavy loads.Nevertheless, there are very few studies related to stair falls among construction workers.The purpose of this study was to detect near fall incidence during stair descent and analyze th
