Feedforward and feedback control in apraxia of speech: effects of noise masking on vowel production [PDF]
PURPOSE: This study was designed to test two hypotheses about apraxia of speech (AOS) derived from the Directions Into Velocities of Articulators (DIVA) model (Guenther et al., 2006): the feedforward system deficit hypothesis and the feedback system ...

Novel Self-powered Flexible Thin Bite Force Sensor with Electret and Dielectric Elastomer
Monitoring the bite force is valuable in the treatment of bruxism, an unconscious oral habit. Conventional bite force sensors used in clinical practice are unsuitable for wearable bite force measurement systems because of their size and measurement ...

Clade-wide variation in bite-force performance is determined primarily by size, not ecology
Performance traits are tightly linked to the fitness of organisms. However, because studies of variation in performance traits generally focus on just one or several closely related species, we are unable to draw broader conclusions about how and why ...

Bite Force in Elderly with Full Natural Dentition and Different Rehabilitation Prosthesis
(1) Background: This study aimed to investigate maximum bite force (MBF) in elderly patients with natural full dentition (FD), patients rehabilitated with Traditional Complete Dentures (CD), with overdentures (IRO) and edentulous patients (ED).
