Low Level Alcohol and its Residual Effect on a Pilot's Threshold for Detecting Angular Motion
… to examine a pilot's sensitivity to a change in angular motion after alcohol ingestion and determine the duration of effect after the time the blood alcohol content (BAC) reached zero. An earlier study determined that a pilot's threshold for detecting angular motion was affected by 30% with low …

A Simulation Study of Pilots' Ability to Perceive Angular Motion under the Influence of Alcohol
… of alcohol on the pilots’ ability to perceive angular motion. It was hypothesized that in the absence of visual cues, pilots’ thresholds of perceiving a change in angular motion is adversely affected by alcohol in the blood, thereby increasing the potential to enter a state of spatial …

A multimodal social semiotic analysis of lecturer pedagogy for the physics concept of angular motion in physiotherapy education
Angular motion is a foundational concept in physiotherapy, applied when measuring joint range of motion (rom) in assessment and treatment of patients. Accordingly, first-year physiotherapy students are commonly taught rom measurement skills in their applied Physiotherapy course and are introduced …

The transformation of oscillatory equations in six degree of freedom re-entry trajectory models with coordinate transformations
… three degrees of freedom represent the linear motion of the missile in three dimensions. A 6-DOF model adds roll, pitch, and yaw, or angular motion in three dimensions to the first three degrees of freedom. Because more of the missile’s attributes are modeled, a 6-DOF model is more accurate …

Design of a snowboard simulating exercise device
… Rotational sensations are created using an angular motion module mounted onto the carriage. The end result of this effort is a proof of concept prototype, which indicates that the output kinematics are desirable. Additional work and sponsorship is required to bring the proof of concept …

Biped robot with a vestibular system
… the robot. This system incorporates the use of angular motion sensing of the robot segment that contains the linear accelerometers. This system was formulated based on human motion sensing and what probably is present in the human central nervous system for processing these signals.

Improvements in the control of robotic motion simulations using the ATB model
… Body (ATS) simulation computer program. Limb motion stability was improved by introducing integral control in the existing feedback control equation. Motion studies were performed using a Merlin robot model to determine control equation gains for single and multi-joint rotations up to 180 …

Sensor Fusion based Gait Recognition for Accurate Actuation of Foot Drop Stimulation
… and velocities; and gyroscopes for foot angular motion. A stimulation control algorithm is further developed that determines when to actuate stimulation upon the gait acknowledgement from the sensing setup. This sensing and control system was evaluated by real-time simulation under the …

Towards a Comprehensive Bicycle Motion Behavior Model and Naturalistic Cycling Dataset
… is limited to characterizing the longitudinal motion of bicyclists based on the assumption that there is no significant differences between the dynamics of a single-file bicycle traffic and the longitudinal motion behavior of cars. This research reparametrizes an existing car-following model to …

Compressive cooperative obstacle mapping with see-through capabilities in mobile networks
… instance, we shed light on the optimum number of angular motion directions of the robots, as well as the choice of the angles, to distribute a given number of wireless measurements. We establish that the total number of available channel measurements should be distributed over a small number of …
