Movement velocity effect on cortical reorganization and finger function in stroke.
Paralysis of limb movement after stroke is a major cause of disability. Recovery of function is linked to favorable brain reorganization. The brain is primed for neuroplastic reorganization after stroke but the rehabilitation interventions must be well designed. Forced use of the paretic limb as a …

Striatal Microcircuits Underlying Control of Actions
… (sensorimotor striatum) is important for movement control. Movement is a change in body configuration or posture. A key feature of voluntary movements is that we can arbitrarily vary movement velocity, defined as the rate of change in body configurations. Despite extensive studies that …

The effect of Fast Eccentric Squats on measures of strength, power and speed
… to investigate the effect of increased eccentric movement velocity during a submaximal back squat on measures of strength, power and speed as well as examine the effect of recovery following eccentric training had on the performance. Eleven participants were randomly placed into a fast-eccentric …

Dynamic Upper Leg Strength and Neuromuscular Function in Children, Adolescents and Adults
… coactivation were determined. Sex, maturity, and velocity main effects were found in PT and PrTD, reflecting greater values in men, adults, and isometric contractions respectively. When values were normalized to quadriceps cross-sectional area (qCSA), there was still an increase with maturity. EMD …

The Use of Computerized Dynamic Posturography to Assess the Balance in Individuals with Parkinson's Disease
… (p=0.23). The Smart Balance Master® system's LOS Movement Velocity, Endpoint Excursion, Maximum Excursion, and Reaction Time subscores and the SOT Composite, Visual, and Vestibular subscores uniquely describe the varying symptoms of the disease. These disease specific abnormalities may provide …

Numerical Investigation of Tsunami-Borne Debris Interaction with Coastal Bridges
… of the effect of various factors on debris movement, velocity, and impact force on bridge superstructure was conducted. By utilizing the coupled SPH-FEM numerical technique, it is demonstrated that the trajectory of debris can vary depending on the tsunami flow characteristics, the debris …

The acute effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on the performance of velocity based squat training
… impact on the number of repetitions completed, movement speed, and perception of effort during squat exercise. Fifteen healthy men (mean age 21.8 ± 2.6 years) participated in this randomized, double-blind, cross-sectional study. Each participant attended three separate experimental sessions, …
