For example, skateboarders might seek handrails in urban environments as an affordance to creatively perform, normally perceived to support locomotion by other individuals, and a skilled skateboarder might approach the same handrail with different set of 'tricks' compared to novice.
This may be a reflection of access to assistive devices to support locomotion in the home.
Synaptojanin UNC-26 lacking the PRD domain fully supports locomotion, endogenous activity, and evoked synaptic currents.
It is often assumed that minimizing energetic costs during steady locomotion represents the most important selection pressure on the organ systems that support locomotion.
The energy budget of an animal is divided into consumption of energy for growth, maintenance, thermoregulation, support, locomotion, respiration, feeding, and reproduction.
This paper presents the development of a remotely operated mobile robot system with a hybrid mechanism whereby the locomotion platform and manipulator arm are designed as one entity to support both locomotion and manipulation interchangeably.
This has particular relevance in the design of orthotic devices to support human locomotion and manipulation.
The required friction coefficient is defined as the minimum friction needed at the shoe and floor interface to support human locomotion.
Through the authors' design calculation, the prosthesis is able to provide sufficient range of motion and torque capacity to support the locomotion of a 75 Kg individual.
Interestingly, however, NSF is also required for cell locomotion [2], supporting the view for a dynamic role for membranes in movement.
Our system is similar in design to another post array structure recently used to study worm behavior [8] but presumably their hexagonal-post array does not support the enhanced locomotion we see in our square-post arrays.
