A fundamental time-scaling property of manipulator dynamics has been identified that allows modification of movement speed without complete dynamics recalculation. By exploiting this property, it can be determined whether a planned trajectory is dynamically realizable given actuator torque limits, and if not, how to modify the trajectory to bring it within dynamic and actuating constraints.

This article proposes a geometric interpretation of discrete fractional order controllers based on sampling time scaling property. Due to its clear interpretation, satisfactory accuracy and easy programming, the property could be used as a reliable simulation and realization method for fractional order control systems. The experiments of one-inertia speed control with fractional order integral controllers realized by the proposed sampling time property are also carried out to verify the theoretical robustness of fractional 1/sα systems. The experimental results show the superior robustness performances of fractional 1/sα systems against saturation non-linearity and inertia variation, which highlights the promising aspects of fractional order control.

Dysphagia is common in patients with dementia. Dysphagia occurs as a result of changes in the sensory and motor function of the swallow (Easterling, 2007). It is known that the central nervous system can undergo experience-dependent plasticity, even in those individuals with dementia (Park & Bischof, 2013). The purpose of this study was to explore whether or not the use of neuroplastic principles would improve the swallow motor plan and produce positive outcomes of a patient in severe cognitive decline. The disordered swallow motor plan was manipulated by focusing on a neuroplastic principles of frequency (repetition), velocity of movement (speed of presentation), reversibility (Use it or Lose it), specificity and adaptation, intensity (bolus size), and salience (Crary & Carnaby-Mann, 2008). After five therapeutic sessions, the patient progressed from holding solids in her mouth with decreased swallow initiation to independently consuming a regular diet with full range of liquids with no oral retention and no verbal cues.
