Vibrotactor-Belt on the Thigh - Directions in the Vertical Plane
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our aim was to examine the thigh, as a potential locus for directional orienting, within the vertical plane when the operator is seated (Figure 1). Specifically: (a) Examine the ability to locate a vibrotactile stimulation embracing the thigh. (b) Determine which region along the thigh provided more accurate localization. (c) Compare different burst durations and pulse repetitions which could later be utilized to encode information

Velocity Modeling in a Vertical Transversely Isotropic Medium Using Zelt Method
In the present paper, the Zelt algorithm has been extended for ray tracing through an anisotropic model. In anisotropic media, the direction of the propagated energy generally differs from that of the plane-wave propagation. This makes velocity values to be varied in different directions. Therefore, velocity modeling in such media is completely different from that in an isotropic media. The vel...
متن کاملExperimental study of free convective heat transfer in a direction-sensitive open cavity
The aim of the present study was to propose a panel being sensitive to the direction of heat transfer. For this purpose, a vertical rectangular cavity with prescribed dimensions was prepared and filled with water as the working fluid. A vertical mid-plane solid partition was installed within the cavity. Two relatively wide openings were created at the top and bottom of the partition and they we...

Background: The changes in motor control after the use of a supportive belt can contribute to the understanding of its effects on performance. The aim of this study is to quantify motion pattern values relative to the spinal column during the use of a lumbosacral belt.Methods: For fifty healthy female volunteers, the range of motion, maximum isometric torque and changes of phase angle of maximu...
متن کاملVertical motion and expansion of the Gould Belt
The kinematics of the Gould Belt is considered taking into account its orientation in space and the motions of its member stars parallel and perpendicular to the galactic plane. An analysis of Hipparcos data for these stars, complemented with published radial velocities, shows that there is a mild gradient along the galactic plane in the velocity component perpendicular to it. The maintenance o...
متن کاملPostnatal development of spatial coding in the gravity sensing system
The critical maturation time of central otolith neurons in processing spatial orientations was examined in Sprague-Dawley rats. With the use of immuno-hybridization histochemical methods, we observed c-fos expression in vestibular nuclear neurons responding to transverse movement on the horizontal plane as early as P7 and those to antero-posterior stimulation as early as P9. In the inferior oli...
