Experiments during weightlessness: a study of the oculo-agravic illusion.
D U R I N G S T U D I E S of the effects of angular acceleration and centrifugal force in flight, Graybiel, Clark and McCorquodale observed two illusory phenomena which they termed the "oculogyral" and the "oculogravic" illusion. 3-5'1~'~3'~4 They attributed the oculogyral illusion to angular acceleration. This change in velocity of rotation produces an adequate stimulus to the semicircular can...
متن کاملWeightlessness and skeleton homeostasis.
As human beings venture into space in the 21st century, they will be confronted with a "hypodynamic" and thus hostile environment for the bone homeostasis, that could potentially compromise their mobility in general and skeletal strength in particular after landing. From this point of view, space flight studies are especially interesting and intriguing models for scientists. Space studies, howe...
متن کاملSpatial orientation and posture during and following weightlessness: human experiments on Spacelab Life Sciences 1.
The 4 payload crew members of the Spacelab Life Sciences 9-day space flight in 1991 were subjected to limited vestibular testing in flight as well as pre and post flight. Major differences in individual "perceptual style" appeared in their reaction to the visual-vestibular stimuli in the rotating dome experiment, and especially in the extent to which nondirectional tactile cues served to anchor...
متن کاملANU/ACSys TREC-6 Experiments
A number of experiments conducted within the framework of the TREC-6 conference and using a completely re-engineered version of the PArallel Document Retrieval Engine (PADRE97) are reported. Passage-based pseudo relevance feedback combined with a variant of City University's Okapi BM25 scoring function achieved best average precision, best recall and best precision@20 in the Long-topic Automati...
متن کاملPhysics and psychophysics of weightlessness.
T H E D E V E L O P M E N T of aviation is directed toward ever increasing velocities and altitudes. Already, today, aircraft fly at altitudes at which the density of the atmosphere is extremely low. According to the principles of mechanics, reduction or entire lack of weight will ensue during coasting maneuvers at high altitudes because mechanical support by the atmosphere is lacking/ Conseque...
