The automatic positioning of underground mobile applications plays a crucial role in enabling intelligent coal mining. However, due to the diverse kinematics and dynamics of these applications, various positioning methods have been proposed to match different targets. Nonetheless, the accuracy and applicability of these methods still fall short of meeting the requirements for field applications.

The application of human factors engineering for rehabilitation robots is based on a "human-centered" design philosophy that strives to provide safe and efficient human-robot interaction training for patients rather than depending on rehabilitation therapists. Human factors engineering for rehabilitation robots is undergoing preliminary investigation. However, the depth and breadth of current research do not provide a complete human factor engineering solution for developing rehabilitation robots.

Otitis media is one of the common ear diseases, and its accurate diagnosis can prevent the deterioration of conductive hearing loss and avoid the overuse of antibiotics. At present, the diagnosis of otitis media mainly relies on the doctor's visual inspection based on the images fed back by the otoscope equipment. Due to the quality of otoscope equipment pictures and the doctor's diagnosis experience, this subjective examination has a relatively high rate of misdiagnosis.

An active actuator of a middle-ear implant coupled to the round window membrane (RWM), which transmits vibration to the cochlea, has been used to compensate for hearing loss in patients. However, various factors affect the coupling condition between the actuator and the RWM, resulting in coupling leakage. In this study, a coupling impedance model of the human ear and the actuator was used to investigate the effect of inefficient coupling during reverse stimulation.

In this study, the tribological behavior of lamellar ZrS₂ nanobelts as lubricant additives was investigated under different concentrations, normal load, velocity, and temperature. The friction and wear tests were performed using a tribometer and with a reciprocating motion. The results indicate that the lamellar ZrS₂ nanobelt additives can effectively reduce the coefficient of friction and running-in time during the running-in period.

In this study, the tribological behavior of lamellar MoO₃ as a lubricant additive was investigated under different concentrations, particle sizes, normal loads, velocity, and temperature. The friction and wear tests were performed using a tribometer and with a reciprocating motion. The results indicate that the friction-reducing ability and antiwear property of the base oil can be improved effectively with the addition of lamellar MoO₃.
