A method for controlling the grasping force when an object is grasped by artificial elastic fingers is proposed. First, the relationship between the stick area and the internal strain distribution of...

Comparison of Investigation Modalities for Evaluation of Esophageal Peristaltic Function

Kawai, Takashi, Yamagishi, Tetsuya

We reviewed the recent literature concerning investigations of esophageal peristaltic function. The gold standard for the assessment of esophageal peristaltic function is manometry with pH...

Testing the facilitation–competition paradigm under the stress-gradient hypothesis: decoupling multiple stress factors

Kawai, Takashi, Tokeshi, Mutsunori

While the facilitation–competition paradigm under the stress-gradient hypothesis has received recent attention, its rigorous testing is yet to be explored. Most of the studies have considered a...
