Sentence examples for surface translation from inspiring English sources

Lateral stepping reactions were evoked, in 10 healthy young adults (ages 22 27 years), by means of sudden unpredictable medio-lateral support surface translation.

Several surface translation rules can be represented as a particular case of the proposed model, including the ones by Chaboche (1979), Burlet Cailletaud (1986), Ohno Wang (1993), Jiang Sehitoglu (1996), Bari Hassan (2001) and Chen Jiao (2004), among others.

Off-axis alignment was expressed as rotation error, which is a measure of orientation and expressed as an angle, and as surface translation error, which is measured on the surface of the lateral epicondyle and expressed in millimeters (Fig. 3) [11] 11].

The surface translation error is defined by the Euler (shortest) distance between the entry point of the elbow rotation axis on the lateral epicondyle and the location where the surgeon's axis definition enters the lateral epicondyle, and thus represents the 'K-wire insertion error' if a surgeon would normally start drilling the fixator axis at this location.

In contrast, Parkinsonian subjects coactivate proximal muscles on the ventral side of the body (QUAD-ABD) with backward surface translation, and on dorsal side of the body (PSP and HAM) with forward surface translation.

Feedback gains quantify how the nervous system generates compensatory joint torques by actively controlling joint stiffness and damping, when subjects experience surface translation based on kinematic responses.

Main Outcome Measures: Weight symmetry scores, latencies of each leg's active response to the support surface translations, and response strength scores of each leg to the platform translations.

Corna S, Nardone A, Prestinari A, Galante M, Grasso M, Schieppati M. Comparison of Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises and sinusoidal support surface translations to improve balance in patients with unilateral vestibular deficit.

Because support-surface translations are also used during the perturbation-based training, testing with surface translations will allow us to identify whether the targeted aspects of the change-in-support reactions were improved by the training.

A later study aimed to evaluate the effects of parkinsonism and of dopamine replacement therapy on the scaling of automatic postural responses based on peripheral sensory information and on central set, compared measures of surface reactive torques and EMG activity in response to backward surface translations in Parkinsonian patients and elderly controls [ 44].

The ability to quickly change the postural set was inferred by comparing leg muscle activity under two conditions of support (free stance versus grasping a frame, or sitting) during backward surface translations, during toes up surface rotations, and during voluntary rise to toes.
