Microgravity induces overconfidence in perceptual decision-making

Davide Scaramuzza, Christian Pfeiffer, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Does gravity affect decision-making? This question comes into sharp focus as plans for interplanetary human space missions solidify. In the framework of Bayesian brain theories, gravity encapsulates a strong prior, anchoring agents to a reference frame via ...

Young children can use their subjective straight-ahead to remap visuo-motor alterations

Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt

Young children and adults process spatial information differently: the former use their bodies as primary reference, while adults seem capable of using abstract frames. The transition is estimated to occur between the 6th and the 12th year of age. The mech ...

Theory and application of a data-driven approach to compressive spectrometry in the assessment of neurophotic stimulation

Forrest Simon Webler

Recent advances in biology and neuroscience have elucidated pathways in which visible light initiates a signaling process, via the eye, responsible for activating direct and indirect biological responses. While the full impact of unnatural light patterns o ...

Learning From Demonstration and Interactive Control of Variable-Impedance to Cut Soft Tissues

Aude Billard, Rui Wu

In this article, we propose an approach to extract variable-impedance during cutting tasks from human demonstrations, so as to ease soft-tissue cutting by robots. We model the dynamic adjustment of the human arm during interactions with the tissue and tran ...

Buoyancy-driven convection of droplets on hot nonwetting surfaces

François Gallaire, Eunok Yim

The global linear stability of a water drop on hot nonwetting surfaces is studied. The droplet is assumed to have a static shape and the surface tension gradient is neglected. First, the nonlinear steady Boussinesq equation is solved to obtain the axisymme ...

Foucault pendulum properties of spherical oscillators

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Patrick Robert Flückiger

The Foucault pendulum provides a demonstration of the turning of the Earth. The principle at work is that linear oscillations of a two-degree-of-freedom isotropic harmonic oscillator remain unchanged in an inertial frame of reference, so appear to precess ...

Foucault pendulum properties of spherical oscillators

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Patrick Robert Flückiger

In 1851 Léon Foucault created a sensation with his pendulum providing a direct demonstration of the turning of the Earth. This simple device consists of a pendulum which is launched in a purely planar orbit. Following Mach's principle of inertia, the mass ...

A mechanistic model for the growth of cylindrical debris particles in the presence of adhesion

Jean-François Molinari, Enrico Milanese

The wear volume is known to keep increasing during frictional processes, and Archard notably proposed a model to describe the probability of wear particle formation upon asperity collision in a two-body contact configuration. While this model is largely ad ...

Data-driven Measurement Designs for Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Baran Gözcü

Despite being a powerful medical imaging technique which does not emit any ionizing radiation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) always had the major problem of long scanning times that can take up to an hour depending on the application. It also requires u ...

Reference-frames in vision: Contributions of attentional tracking to nonretinotopic perception in the Ternus-Pikler display

Michael Herzog, Marc Michael Lauffs, Oh-Hyeon Choung

Perception depends on reference frames. For example, the "true'' cycloidal motion trajectory of a reflector on a bike's wheel is invisible because we perceive the reflector motion relative to the bike's motion trajectory, which serves as a reference frame. ...

Lorentz Force from a Current-Carrying Wire on a Charge in Motion under the Assumption of Neutrality in the Symmetrical Frame of Reference

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga

It is commonly assumed that a wire conducting an electric current is neutral in the laboratory frame of reference (the rest frame of the lattice of positive ions). Some authors consider that the wire is neutral only in a symmetrical frame of reference, in ...
