The objective of this study is to analyze the participants' views on the impact of the Erasmus program on professional training and personal development of participants, highlighting the effects of the Erasmus mobility on student participants (educational level, professional, cultural, interpersonal, etc.). The participants in this study were 89 students of technical universities participating in the Erasmus mobility. The research involved a survey based on a questionnaire centered on the educational/vocational impact, cultural impact, and the relational impact of the Erasmus mobility on the personal and professional development of students/beneficiaries. The results show that an Erasmus mobility stimulate the acquisition of a social and cultural capital, acquisitions hard to gain in an otherwise normal context of life.
Nowadays, robotics focused towards an interdisciplinary cooperation with other scientific fields, with the main goal of submitting solutions to improve the human life quality. This new orientation required the development of subsystems that differ from the common robotic components and match the new applications requisites. One of these preoccupations envisages the analysis and design of high performance actuators. The paper deals in this way with specific aspects characterizing the analysis and modelling of actuators with a serial elastic element.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
