Milled Stress Reduces Morphine-Induced Locomotion in F2 NMRI Mice

In the present study, the effects of pregnant NMRI mice restraint stress on the responsibility of their children to the behavioral properties of morphine, sulpiride and dextromethorphan were investigated in the F2 generation. Twenty four pregnant NMRI female mice (W: 25 g) were divided into the experimental and control groups (n = 12/group). Animals in the experimental group were kept in the r...

Force Sensors in Hexapod Locomotion Force Sensors in Hexapod Locomotion

Biological systems can provide useful insights into principles of design and control of locomotion that can be applied to legged robots. In this paper we review our work on cockroaches using finite element analysis to model how loads are sensed and regulated in walking and climbing. A number of biological studies have shown that sensors that detect forces in the legs of insects are of particula...

Human Locomotion in Subgravity.

The validity of experimental models simulating subgravity on earth is discussed. The mechanical characteristics of human locomotion in subgravity are perhaps better described by extrapolating data obtained at g = 1. Walking at g = I muscular energy is utilized substantially to lift the body (increase of potential energy) while the forward acceleration (increase of kinetic energy) is obtained ma...
