Breeding soundness evaluation of young beef bulls [PDF]
, 2007 The overall aims were to learn more about factors affecting fertility in Swedish beef sires in general and in yearling beef bulls in particular, focusing mainly on sexual maturity and hind limb health finding useful tools in order to be able to routinely

Adjustment to an Artificial Limb: A Qualitative Perspective
Journal of Health Psychology, 2001 The purpose of this study was to identify factors considered to be important in the adjustment to amputation and the wearing of a prosthetic limb from the perspective of the person who has had a lower limb amputation. Hence, focus group methodology was employed as a means of acquiring perspectives within a population of young adults who had a lower ...

Generation of Whole-Body Expressive Movement Based on Somatical Theories [PDF]
, 2002 An automatic choreography method to generate lifelike body movements is proposed. This method is based on somatics theories that are conventionally used to evaluate human’s psychological and developmental states by analyzing the body movement.

Self-organized attractoring in locomoting animals and robots: an emerging field [PDF]
Artificial Neural Networks and Machine Learning - ICANN 2024.
Wand, M., Malinovska, K., Schmidhuber, J., Tetko, I.V. (eds), ICANN 2024.
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 15025. Springer, ChamLocomotion may be induced on three levels. On a classical level, actuators and limbs follow the sequence of open-loop top-down control signals they receive. Limbs may move alternatively on their own, which implies that interlimb coordination must be mediated either by the body or via decentralized inter-limb signaling.

The normalization of the cyborg: from futuristic artistic expression of mutilation to daily aesthetic beauty [PDF]
, 2009 The concept of mutilation as a permanent scarring of the integrity of the body has been overcome by the representation in visual culture of the cyborg, the bionic human and the genetically and bionically engineered mutant. Mutants with bionic prosthetics

Evolutionary Morphology Towards Overconstrained Locomotion via Large-Scale, Multi-Terrain Deep Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
arXivWhile the animals' Fin-to-Limb evolution has been well-researched in biology, such morphological transformation remains under-adopted in the modern design of advanced robotic limbs. This paper investigates a novel class of overconstrained locomotion from a design and learning perspective inspired by evolutionary morphology, aiming to integrate the ...

Artificial limb connection [PDF]
, 1974 Connection simplifies and eases donning and removing artificial limb; eliminates harnesses and clamps; and reduces skin pressures by allowing bone to carry all tensile and part of compressive loads between prosthesis and stump.
