Abstract: In this paper, the use of the Kresling tower origami as a building block for compliant mechanism design is considered. To help building systems using this origami, models are derived to link the origami pattern geometry ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the design of a cabledriven manipulator (CDM) with instrumented structure for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)guided interventions. The strong magnetic field and the limited space inside the scanner ...

Abstract: Biopsies for personalized cancer care can be performed with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) guidance, but manual needle manipulation remains an issue due to X-ray exposure to physicians. Modern CBCT scanners integrate ...
