Motor skill acquisition in children with poor motor coordination
… development and wellbeing. Children with poor motor coordination are known to have lower levels of participation in physical activity and exercise in comparison to their typically developing peers, at least partly due to the difficulty in acquiring the motor skills they need for participation. …

Neural correlates of motor performance in primary motor cortex
… the behavior of cells in the primary motor cortex that correlate with movement of the upper limb. The patterns of behavior of cells before, during, and after the application of an external forcefield to the hand of a primate performing a motor reaching task have been described. In …

Motor Resonance meets Motor Performance: Neurocognitive investigations with transcranial magnetic stimulation
… idea is to adapt a neural population in the motor system and then testing the effects of this adaptation when participants categorize visually presented actions. The second aim of the present work is to find a paradigm, or a particular cognitive set, that does not allow the simulation process …

Chemomechanical coupling and motor cycles of the molecular motor myosin V
… structure relies to a large extent on molecular motors. Molecular motors are proteins that are able to convert chemical energy from the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into mechanical work. Being about 10 to 100 nanometers in size, the molecules act on a length scale, for which thermal …

Bimanual coordination and motor learning in children with unilateral motor disorders
… Extensive research has been done investigating motor impairments on a functional level using standardized procedures. There is a lack of studies however looking at the specific problem of coordination of a bimanual task, especially with respect to the different underlying neuropathologies. Aims …

Language in the context of motor activity: Gross and fine motor differences.
… model which predicts that a child's level of motor development may influence speech produced by both parents and child and subsequently the language acquisition style the child will develop. Subjects were eight boys and eight girls, and their mothers. Mothers were given the Motor Skills Domain …

Induction motor fault recognition.
The work presented in this thesis is based on theoretical and experimental investigations into the changes in measurable squirrel cage induction machine parameters such as vibration, line current and leakage flux which alter during machine faults. Initially a survey was conducted to determine which …

Airgap-less Electric Motor
… electromagnetic torque. A higher torque density motor is proposed in this dissertation due to a reduced reluctance caused by zero airgap situation. A comparison with other high torque density electric machines demonstrates the advantages of the proposed machine. Switched reluctance motor for …

Attention and Motor Skills
An attempt was initially made to define the concept of attention and what it meant to state that someone was attending in any particular situation. It was suggested, as a result of the conceptual analysis, that a common mistake had been made in research to date viz., that of believing that one is …

Modeling the role of the basal ganglia in motor control and motor programming
… both higher-level rote behavior and lower-level motor control. In the model, BG circuitry effectively implements a large set of parallel noncompetitive logical OR and NOR circuits that can be driven by specific patterns of cortical activity. These afford selective gating of target thalamocortical …

Linearity, motor primitives and low-dimensionality in the spinal organization of motor control
… the central nervous system is able to control motor systems with an impressive level of complexity and effectivity. One such example is the frog. Evidence suggests that in frogs, the central nervous system, and the spinal cord in particular, may adopt simplifying strategies to ease the motor …

Investigating the relationship between perceived motor competence and actual motor competence in adolescent youth
… movement patterns, i.e. in their actual motor competence (AMC). Additionally, research in the domain of self-perceptions illustrates that adolescents possess inordinate levels of perceived motor competence (PMC) relative to their low level of actual ability. Evaluating the role of the …

Flow field investigation in pulse 1 motor of a two-pulse solid rocket motor
… investigation of the flow field in the pulse I motor of a two-pulse solid rocket motor. A full scale model of clear acrylic material was constructed to allow direct visual access of the flow field. The experiment, which was conducted with one of the VPI water analogy rigs, simulated the flow in …
