Ernst Mach and the episode of the monocular depth sensations.
Although Ernst Mach is widely recognized in psychology for his discovery of the effects of lateral inhibition in the retina ("Mach Bands"), his contributions to the theory of depth perception are not as well known. Mach proposed that steady luminance gradients triggered sensations of depth. He also expanded on Ewald Hering's hypothesis of "monocular depth sensations," arguing that they were sub...
متن کاملIndividual muscle contributions to circular turning mechanics.
Turning is an activity of daily living that involves both the acceleration of the body center-of-mass (COM) towards the center of curvature and rotation of the pelvis towards the new heading. The purpose of this study was to understand which muscles contribute to turning using experimentation, musculoskeletal modeling and simulation. Ten healthy adults consented to walk around a 1-m radius circ...

متن کاملErnst Mach and the Origin of the Knowledge Theory in the Former Austrian Empire
This paper discusses the origin of the modern social knowledge theory and Ernst Mach’s role in its development and his contribution to the history of economics. We categorize economic and scientific methodologies based on the dichotomy between “describable” and “indescribable” knowledge. The arguments of both groups drew from Mach’s theory and later developed along different lines. We investiga...
متن کاملMach cone in a shallow granular fluid.
We study the V -shaped wake (Mach cone) formed by a cylindrical rod moving through a thin, vertically vibrated granular layer. The wake, analogous to a shock (hydraulic jump) in shallow water, appears for rod velocities vR greater than a critical velocity c . We measure the half angle theta; of the wake as a function of vR and layer depth h . The angle satisfies the Mach relation, sin theta=c/v...
