The magnetic field dependent viscosity (magnetoviscosity) of dilute suspensions of magnetic tri-axial ellipsoidal particles suspended in a Newtonian fluid and under applied shear and magnetic fields was studied numerically. Brownian dynamics simulations were performed to compute the intrinsic magnetoviscosity of the suspension. Results are presented for the response of dilute suspensions of ellipsoidal...
We present AudiodMC, an audio-based concept map design program for blind users aimed at virtual training and rehabilitation. We analyze the stages involved in the design of AudiodMC from a user-centered design perspective, considering user involvement and usability testing. The results show a high level of user acceptance, identifying key sound characteristics that help blind learners to learn concept...
The myoelectric signals from the biceps brachii and triceps brachii were recorded during stepwise and linearly increasing flexion and extension. The power density spectrum of each signal was determined for different force levels and the median frequency was calculated to track the average conduction velocity, which in turn reflects motor unit recruitment or de-recruitment, and thereby the control...
The mechanical energy (potential+kinetic energy) and force variations associated with a muscle contracting from rest against a gravitational load were studied in nine cat muscles of the hind limb. Acceleration and deceleration phases were observed, and associated with muscular force variations of up to 25% of the mass weight in fast twitch muscles at low loads. Variations of 10% or less were associated...
