With vehicle electrification and employment of X-by-wire technology, mechanical systems are being replaced by motor drives which improve the efficiency performance vehicular systems. However, have a lower power density reliability compared to solutions. Multi-motor potential mitigating both these drawbacks. In this paper, state-of-the-art review multi-motor their application is carried out. Fir...

An important problem in developmental robotics is the automatic learning of motor routines or behaviors without human guidance. This paper presents Self-Organizing Distinctive-State Abstraction (SODA), a method by which a robot can learn a set of sensory features and reusable motor routines from raw sensorimotor experience. Experiments show that the learned versions of the motor routines outper...

The capabilities of the different types of motor units are reviewed, and their properties in a variety of muscles are discussed. Because the tension-generating capacities of motor units are so different, the order in which they are recruited will have a strong influence on the way force output of the whole muscle is graded. Activation of motor units in a random order produces a roughly linear f...

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to describe the effect of locomotor training on a treadmill for three individuals who have an incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). [Subjects and Methods] Three indivduals (2 males, 1 female) with incomplete paraplegia participated in this prospective case series. All subjects participated in locomotor training for a maximum of 20 minutes on a motorized treadm...

There is a fundamental difference between robots that are equipped with sensory, motor and cognitive capabilities, vs. simulations or non-embodied cognitive systems. Via their perceptual and motor capabilities, these robotic systems can interact with humans in an increasingly more “natural” way, physically interacting with shared objects in cooperative action settings. Indeed, such cognitive ro...

This issue of the ILAR Journal is devoted to animal models of human movement disorders. It is not possible to cover this vast topic in a few short articles, but we hope that the contributing researchers’ descriptions of research models and results will inform, guide, and promote further research on motor disorders. The research field is broad because so much of the nervous system relates to mot...

Background: Infancy is the most important extra uterine period of brain development. And it requires environmental stimulation for expression of the developmental capabilities. Meanwhile, due to repeated environmental disparities foster care children are at risk for developmental delay. Aim: designing evidence based care package to improve motor skills of orphan living infants according to inte...
