For your eyes only: Effect of confederate's eye level on reach-to-grasp action
Previous studies have shown that the spatio-temporal parameters of reach-to-grasp movement are influenced by the social context in which the motor action is performed.

Progressive Collapse Analysis Of Flat Slab Buildings With Post-Punching Effect [PDF]
The reinforced concrete flat slab is one of the types of floor systems used to construct residential, office and parking buildings. Because of the direct transfer of floor loads to columns, flat slabs are susceptible to punching failure in slab-column ...

Object grasping and manipulation in capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) [PDF]
The abilities to perform skilled hand movements and to manipulate objects dexterously are landmarks in the evolution of primates. The study of how primates use their hands to grasp and manipulate objects in accordance with their needs sheds light on how ...
