Cadences are syntactic regularities in strings, of the family of periods, squares, and repetitions. We say a string has a cadence if a certain character is repeated at regular intervals, possibly with intervening occurrences of that character. We call the cadence anchored if the first interval must be the same length as the others. Although cadences' combinatorial properties have been explored, little...

The main issue dealt with in this article pertains to a certain aspect of democratic rules, understood at large, occurring presently in Poland, which are: not serving full terms by various levels local government elected officials and members of parliaments (UE parliament included) due to running for other offices. Statistics of these practices are not reported by the State Board of Election, consequently...

Recourant à l'ethnographie et à l'histoire, l'étude du travail dans l'usine de Peugeot-Sochaux à la fin du XX e siècle et au cours du demi-siècle qui précède invite à s'écarter d'une vision unifiante et généralisée de l'intensification. D'une part, la variation des règles et la diversité des jeux font ressortir les forces et les tensions qui traversent cet enjeu omniprésent des relations de...

The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of a hybrid orthosis for walking after spinal cord injury (SCI) that coordinates the locking and unlocking of knee and ankle joints of a reciprocating gait orthosis (RGO), while injecting propulsive forces and controlling unlocked joints with functional neuromuscular stimulation (FNS). The effectiveness of the hybrid system relative to gait...

A control model is presented which is based on exhaustive biomechanical and EMG analyses of human gait. The motor patterns (moments-of-force, mechanical power and EMG), when compared over a wide range of cadences and subjects, gives the author considerable insight into strategies used by the central nervous system. The net result of these analyses is the identification of three fairly independent...
