at the beginning of this paper, design and manufacturing stages of the 3 degree of freedom test stand for a remotely piloted helicopter is described, in which the helicopter is able to rotate about its three primary accesses. in the next parts the dynamical model of the rph in the yaw channel is presented and lateral transfer function of rph (yaw channel) is extracted by performing several test...

s / Gait & Posture 46 (2016) 208–220 213 COP registrations are often complemented with EMG measures and/or measures of cortical activity, allowing a better understanding of how intermuscular coordination of balance is regulated [17–21]. Alsodirect and indirectmeasures of the attentional investment in postural control are often used, such as stimulus-response reaction times or the regularity of ...

When we stand upright, we integrate cues from multiple senses, such as vision and proprioception, to maintain and regulate our vertical posture. How these cues are combined has been the focus of a range of studies. These studies generally measured how subjects deviate from standing upright when confronted with a moving visual stimulus displayed in a virtual environment. Previous research had sh...

Trust is an important aspect of any software development team, but particularly with self-managing teams as team members are very dependent on one another. Agile teams are considered to be self-managing and they employ many different agile practices to function as an agile team. While there have been many studies of trust in software development teams few have examined trust in an agile context...

tween a ‘‘declining’’ and a ‘‘healthy’’ sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) stand in Vermont, USA. The declining stand had lower basal area increment and more crown dieback than the healthy stand. Soil pH and base cation content were lower and soil water content was higher at the site of the declining stand than at the site of the healthy stand, whereas soil temperature did not differ significa...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the ability to perform the sit-to-stand movement and the maximum pelvic anteversion and retroversion angles of patients. [Subjects] Thirty-two stroke patients (66.7±7.6 years) (>3 months post-stroke) who were able to sit unsupported and 50 age-matched healthy subjects participated in this study. The stroke patients ...

Physical support of lower limbs during sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transfers is important for an independent life of paraplegic patients. The purpose of this study is, therefore, to realize the control method of complete paraplegic patients during sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transfers by using a ‘robot suit HAL’. It is the most challenging issue because the HAL should start supporting the w...
