The paper is concerned with the numerical solution of non-linear conservation laws, and the contribution biomechanical models of spine and of loaded wrist are formulated and analysed. The models are based on a contact problem in non-linear elastic rheology. The stress–strain relation is...

This paper is concerned with the trajectory definition in robot tasks. Although very often ignored, the specification of robot motion is not the first step in the definition of a robot task. The task definition starts with the description of the final outcome, i.e. with the specification of the...

The living organs consist of tissues characterized by the hierarchical, very complex inner structure. One of theories taking this into account is the microcontinuum theory elaborated by Eringen [Microcontinuum Field Theories: Foundation and Solids, 1998]. The corresponding mathematical...
