Running backwards: soft landing-hard takeoff, a less efficient rebound.
Human running at low and intermediate speeds is characterized by a greater average force exerted after 'landing', when muscle-tendon units are stretched ('hard landing'), and a lower average force exerted before 'takeoff', when muscle-tendon units shorten ('soft takeoff'). This landing-takeoff asymmetry is consistent with the force-velocity relation of the 'motor' (i.e. with the basic property ...
متن کاملRunning Probabilistic Programs Backwards
Many probabilistic programming languages allow programs to be run under constraints in order to carry out Bayesian inference. Running programs under constraints could enable other uses such as rare event simulation and probabilistic verification—except that all such probabilistic languages are necessarily limited because they are defined or implemented in terms of an impoverished theory of prob...
متن کاملRunning the Web backwards: appliance data services
"Appliance" digital devices such as handheld cameras, scanners, and microphones generate data that people want to put on Web pages. Unfortunately, numerous complex steps are required. Contrast this with Web output: handheld web browsers enjoy increasing infrastructural support such as user-transparent transformation proxies, allowing unmodified Web pages to be conveniently viewed on devices not...
متن کاملRunning Programs Backwards : The Logical Inversion of Imperative
The feasibility of inverting imperative computations using logic programming technology is informally explored. Program inversion is the process of determining the possible input values that will produce a given output for a program. The relational semantics of imperative computations treats programs as logical relations over the observable environment, which is usually taken to be the state of...
متن کاملThe EMG activity and mechanics of the running jump as a function of takeoff angle.
To characterize the electromyographic (EMG) activity, ground reaction forces, and kinematics were used in the running jump with different takeoff angles. Two male long jumpers volunteered to perform running jumps at different approach speeds by varying the number of steps (from 3 to 9) in the run-up. Subject TM achieved a greater vertical velocity of the center of gravity (CG) at takeoff for al...
