Layers of Dissent: The Meaning of Time Appropriation

Within Critical Management Theory as well as Critical Theory the possibility of individuals resisting taken for granted power asymmetries remains a highly debated subject.Intensified corporate culture programs seem to imply that within the sphere of labor, worker dissent is loosing ground.Based on a large interview material of critical cases, this

Musculoskeletal Load Analysis for the Design and Control of a Wearable Robot Bracing the Human Body While Crawling on a Floor

Wearable robots, such as exoskeletons, can potentially reduce the load at targeted muscles of the human body during fatiguing tasks.It is common, however, that use of a wearable robot causes increased load at untargeted muscles, leading to minimal net improvement.Here, musculoskeletal impacts of a wearable robotic device are examined to establish a

Hybrid-Frequency Cascaded Full-Bridge Solid-State Transformer

Modular solid-state transformers (SSTs) are suitable for various voltage- and power-level applications.State-of-the-art Tumbler modular-SST topologies contain a considerable quantity of high-frequency transformers (HFTs) and power switches, thereby increasing the costs, difficulty, and workloads of engineering.To overcome this challenge, a new SST
