Human saccadic eye movements have three types of overshoot: dynamic overshoot, lasting 10-30 ms; glissadic overshoot, lasting 30-500 ms; and static overshoot, which is amended-after a delay of about 200 ms-by a subsequent corrective saccade. Glissades are the slow drifting eye movements occasionally seen at the end of saccadic eye movements. Glissades are hypothecated to be produced by mismatch...

Overshoot, the elevation in the threshold for a brief signal that comes on close to masker onset, was measured with signal frequency certain (same frequency on every trial) or uncertain (randomized over trials). In broadband noise, thresholds were higher 2 ms after masker onset than 200 ms later, by 9 dB with frequency certainty, by 6-7 dB with uncertainty. In narrowband noise centered on the s...

In this work we report on experiments performed on smooth edge-narrow Hall bars. The magneto-transport properties of intermediate mobility two-dimensional electron systems are investigated and analyzed within the screening theory of the integer quantized Hall effect. We observe a non-monotonic increase of Hall resistance at the low magnetic field ends of the quantized plateaus, known as the ove...

We have experimentally studied the transient velocity overshoot dynamics of photoexcited carriers in GaAs for electric fields as great as 200 kV/cm. Time domain waveforms proportional to the velocity and the acceleration of carriers have been acquired? respectively, from guided and free-space radiating signals which contain terahertz frequency components. The measurements demonstrated that the ...

A method for assessing the performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) is the polarisation sweep where different external resistances are applied at set intervals (sample rates). The resulting power curves often exhibit an overshoot where both power and current decrease concomitantly. To investigate these phenomena, small-scale (1 mL volume) MFCs operated in continuous flow were subjected to pol...

If a curved line and a straight line are presented briefly, one above the other, in sequence to the eye, then, under appropriate conditions, visual apparent motion is obtained. Subjects report that the illusory figure moving and changing from the curved line to the straight line appears to overshoot the latter, gaining a small curvature in the opposite sense. Three experiments are described. In...
