Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Increased Physiological Arousal on Upper Extremity Reaction and Movement Times in Healthy Young AdultsChristopher Kovacs, Tamara BoriesProblem statement: Research has suggested that examining attentional demands during functional tasks is an emergent area of study. Increased arousal may represent an attentional demand, resulting in impaired motor functioning in tasks that require fast reaction and movement times. Approach: This study examined the effects of a non-specific stressor and the resultant physiological arousal on upper extremity functional measures of … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Small Hydraulic Downhole Motors for Well Drilling ApplicationsIuri Appolonievich Sazonov, Mikhail Albertovich Mokhov, Anastasia Aleksandrovna DemidovaFurther development of the well drilling technologies becomes possible due to the improvement of rock cutting tools and hydraulic downhole motors. When developing a new hydraulic motor, it is highly important to eliminate rotor vibrations and reduce motor size. There are two main trends in further improvement of hydraulic motors: The upgrade of the downhole screw motors currently in use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 7 Oct 2016 · 7,786 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVisceral Pain: Basic Research Concepts and Therapeutic InterventionsVictor V. ChabanThe accumulation of nociceptive diseases that limit normal body functions is a major risk factor for a disability, and visceral pain is one of the most prevalent human health problems. Additionally, many pain-associated diseases are accompanied by the concomitant decline in cognitive and motor performance. The complex interplay and balance between diverse signal transduction mediators, genetic background and environmental factors … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 26 Aug 2015 · 7,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of a Dynamic Interaction of Motor Transport and Natural Systems in Order to Minimize the Risks of Project and Management DecisionsL. G. Gagarina, D. N. Kavtaradze, A. A. Mordovin et al.Fundamental tasks for the problem of scientific support for the design of transport infrastructure in the ecosystem splits are analyzed. New aspects of simulational application in dynamic interaction of motor transport and natural systems are considered. Method for simulational studies is analyzed. The problems and advantages of the simulation of complex systems are investigated. Mathematical model of the transport infrastructure … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPATIAL AND TEMPORAL ELEMENTS OF ANTICIPATION CONSISTENCY OF CHILDREN WITH GENERAL SPEECH RETARDATIONAnna Ivanovna AkhmetzyanovaPsychologists of child care settings who are engaged in diagnosing psychological readiness of children for school education distinguished a group of individuals who are not sufficiently ready for the school education. At that, the overall assessment of the intellectual development of a child can be within the average age-related values. However, in the course of special research (defectological, neuropsychological), the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 17 Apr 2014 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFunctional Recovery of Upper Limb Post-Stroke: Mental Practice with Motor and Non-Motor ImageryAline Furtado Bastos, Beatriz Cantanhede Carrapatoso, Marco Orsini et al.Problem statement: Mental Practice (MP) with motor imagery consists of a method of training in which motor imagery is used to improve performance. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of MP with motor imagery on motor recovery of the paretic upper limb of post-stroke patients in comparison with MP with non-motor imagery. Approach: Four post-stroke patients … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2012 · 9,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Clustering Time by a Group of Autonomous Robots Making Use of an Exclusive Multi-MarkingMohamed Rida Abdessemed, Kamel Khoualdi, Azeddine BilamiProblem statement: For solving complex issues, the current tendency goes towards the swarms behaviors, realized on a basis of collective interactions, which results from a cooperative work favoring exchanges between individuals of a same group at microscopic level and allowing the emergence of complex collective behaviors at macroscopic level. Many models were inspired by these attitudes to find simple rules, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 9 Nov 2010 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Distributed Control System Using a Personal Computer and Micro Control Units for Humanoid RobotsMitsuhiro Yamano, Akihiro Ochiai, Yuichi Suzukawa et al.Problem statement: Humanoid robots have many motors and sensors and many control methods are used to carry out complicated tasks of the robots. Therefore, efficient control systems are required for the robots. Approach: This study presented a distributed control system using a Personal Computer (PC) and Micro Control Units (MCUs) for humanoid robots. Distributed control systems have the advantages that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,525 accessesView PDFCite
