Selective semicircular canal inactivation and three-dimensional eye movement recordings have been used to investigate the spatial organization of vestibular signals in the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) of rhesus monkeys. In animals with one pair of semicircular canals inactivated, afferent activity no longer codes all spatial components of head angular velocity. if it were the activation patter...

Postural control is composed of the integration of vision, vestibular system, and proprioceptive sense along with the balanced control of the musculoskeletal system [1,2]. Muscle fatigue can be defined as the decrease in the maximum muscular strength production capacity due to high intensity or prolonged exercise during physical activity [3,4]. Most studies related to muscle fatigue and postura...

Charged rotating black holes of Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in odd dimensions, D ≥ 5, may possess a negative horizon mass, while their total mass is positive. This surprising feature is related to the existence of counterrotating solutions, where the horizon angular velocity Ω and the angular momentum J possess opposite signs. Black holes may further possess vanishing horizon angular v...

When a symmetric top is set spinning with angular velocity ω c about its own axis, it traces out a circle about a vertical direction with angular velocity ω z , as shown in Fig. 1. In most textbooks [1, 2, 3] the precessional angular velocity ω z is calculated under the assumption that it is much smaller than the spin angular velocity ω c . This makes for a simplification of the calculation by ...

The paper deals with the problem of angular vibration measurements in time history of rotation angle, angular velocity or angular acceleration. The source of information about angular vibrations is an encoder producing an impulse signal. It is supposed that the impulse frequency is changed proportionally to the rotational frequency. A time record of an impulse signal is transformed to an analyt...
