    Abstract: Wearable devices, and methods of use thereof, are provided for the measurement of isometric limb strength. In some embodiments, the device includes pivotally connected members and associated contact pads for contacting portions of a limb, where the members may be locked in position to perform isometric flexion or extension force measurements of the limb about a joint. A load cell or other force measurement sensor integrated with the device measures the force applied to one of the contact pads, either directly or indirectly. In some embodiments, the device can be reconfigured for the measurement of isometric strength for both flexion and extension.

    Abstract: Methods of performing surface profilometry are provided. A low coherence light beam is scanned relative to a sample surface. The intensity of interference fringes generated by the interference of a sample beam and a reference beam are recorded by an image sensor. Variations of light intensity around each pixel are calculated in terms of variance or standard derivation. The peak position of variance on a particular location along vertical scan direction is identified as the scan position corresponding to zero optical path difference between the reference and measuring beams. A topography map (height map) may be generated using the relative scanning position where zero optical path difference occurs at each location on sample surface.

    Abstract: A process for pretreating lignocellulosic biomass that increases monomeric sugar yields in subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis and reduces specific energy consumption during production of the hydrolysable material. The pretreatment includes a chemical treatment followed by a mechanical size reduction such as a disc refining step, and includes a second chemical treatment, harsher than the first, which may precede or follow the size reduction.

    Abstract: A model predictive controller for a performing stateless prediction. Using dosed form algebraic expressions for the step test in a dynamic matrix eliminates the requirement for individual calculation on each element. With both the dynamic matrix and the vector of predicted errors written in terms of discrete algebraic equations, the control law is written as a function of the current state of the system. The control law is then be reduced to its minimal form, which leaves the next control action to be a function of the system parameters, the past errors, and the past control actions. Since the system parameters are constant, this controller is then be reduced into a single discrete equation. This greatly reduces the computations required in each control loop iteration.
