Rheological fingerprinting of gastropod pedal mucus and synthetic complex fluids for biomimicking adhesive locomotion{
Nonlinear rheological properties are often relevant in understanding the response of a material to its intended environment. For example, many gastropods crawl on a thin layer of pedal mucus using a technique called adhesive locomotion, in which the gel structure is periodically ruptured and reformed. We present a mechanical model that captures the key features of this process and suggests that...
متن کاملHow well can spring-mass-like telescoping leg models fit multi-pedal saggital-plane locomotion data?
Idealized mathematical models of animals, with point-mass bodies and spring-like legs, have been used by researchers to study various aspects of terrestrial legged locomotion. Here, we fit a bipedal spring-mass model to the ground reaction forces of human running, a horse trotting, and a cockroach running. We find that, in all three cases, while the model captures center-of-mass motions and ver...

متن کاملNeurogenic positional pedal neuritis. Common pedal manifestations of spinal stenosis.
Neurogenic positional pedal neuritis is a presentation of neuritic symptoms in one or both feet usually affected by body position, specifically, the position of the spine. Its etiology is similar to that of neurogenic-induced claudication caused by spinal stenosis in that the symptoms are caused by compression or irritation of nerves of the lower lumbosacral spine, usually the fifth lumbar and ...
متن کاملPiezogenic Pedal Papules*
Dear Editor, A 24-years-old female sought medical assistance with complaints of a two-year history of bumps on her heels, initially asymptomatic, getting intensely painful over the time. She was generally healthy, and practiced running regularly. Physical examination revealed multiple skin-colored papules on both heels, more evident under pressure (Figure 1). Histopathological exam showed thick...
