Testing the Accelerator Hypothesis
OBJECTIVE — Previous reports have predicted greater risk of type 1 diabetes among people who were heavier as young children. The Accelerator Hypothesis predicts earlier onset in heavier people, without necessarily a change in risk, and views type 1 and type 2 diabetes as the same disorder of insulin resistance, set against different genetic backgrounds. Insulin resistance is a function of fat m...
متن کاملVisual control of braking: a test of the tau hypothesis.
Deceleration during braking could be controlled by (a) using the time derivative of the relative rate of optical expansion, relative to a -0.5 margin value of tau-dot (D.N. Lee, 1976) or (b) computing the required deceleration from spatial variables (i.e., perceived distance, velocity, or object size). Participants viewed closed-loop displays of approach to an object and regulated their deceler...
متن کاملTrain Braking
Train braking is a very complex process, specific to rail vehicles and of great importance by the essential contribution on the safety of the traffic. This complexity results from the fact that during braking occur numerous phenomena of different kinds mechanical, thermal, pneumatic, electrical, etc. The actions of these processes take place in various points of the vehicles and act on differen...
متن کاملHydraulic Regenerative Braking System
Hydraulic regenerative braking system is an important branch of hybrid technology, which has the advantage of high power density and the ability to accept the high rates/high frequencies of charging and discharging, therefore hydraulic regenerative braking technology is well suited for off-road vehicles and heavy-duty trucks. Relatively lower energy density and complicated coordinating operatio...
متن کاملPulsar Braking Indices Revisited
Using the standard equation for the slowdown of a neutron star, we derive a formula for the braking index via integration rather than the conventional differentiation. The new formula negates the need to measure the second time derivative of the rotation frequency, .. ν. We show that the method gives similar braking indices for PSR B1509– 58 and the Crab pulsar to those already in the literatur...
