Climbing is a complex task, involving strength, balance and coordination. The performance of a climber is experience based and more insights in the mechanics of climbing could be gained by measuring the contact forces of the climber, for the centre of mass calculation in real time. A multiaxial load cell was developed to measure the

Nowadays, expected effects of climate change at local, regional and global scales endanger hydrologic budgets of Alpine regions. An example is the massive shrinkage of mountain glaciers, with the consequent problem of water resources reduction for civil population and ecosystems. Therefore, it is very important to monitor glaciers’ evolution, in order to allow an estimation

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia that affects about 2% of the population. The prevalence of AF increases with age, from 0.5% at 40–50 years, to 5–15% at 80 years. AF is associated with increased rates of death, stroke, heart failure and hospitalizations as well as degraded quality of life, reduced exercise capacity,
