To Study the Effects of Butler’s Neuromobilisation and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation on Lower Limb Sensory Deficits in Chronic Stroke: A Comparative Study
Abstract: Stroke is a leading cause of functional impairments worldwide. Deficits in somatic sensations (body senses such as; touch, temperature, pain and proprioception) after stroke are common with high prevalence rates. Sensory deficits have been shown to predict poor functional outcome after stroke, including increased length of hospitalization, lower levels of discharge home, lower numbers of home discharges, and increased mortality rates. The objective of the study was to compare the …

Autonomous Agentic AI for Adaptive Cure Optimization and Defect Prevention in Thermoset Polymer Composite Manufacturing
Abstract: Thermoset polymer composites occupy a central position in modern structural manufacturing, from aircraft fuselages to wind-turbine blades. Despite progress in resin chemistry and fiber architecture, the “cure process” that transforms compliant preforms into load-bearing structures remains difficult to manage. Manufacturers encounter ‘voids’, “interlaminar delaminations”, and “spring-back distortion” when curing complex or thick-section parts. The cause is not ignorance of the relevant physics, but rather that ‘temperature’, ‘chemistry’, ‘rheology’, and ‘mechanics’ …
