Navigating multidimensional obstacles: a comparison between young and older adults and among obstacles. [PDF]
PLoS ONEMost falls in older adults are due to tripping over objects. Older adults cross obstacles with greater toe clearance to prevent tripping, indicating obstacles may be more consequential when compared to young adults. The typical dowel rod used in obstacle

Experimental evaluation of dowel-type timber joints with wooden dowels
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2020 Dowel-type timber joints made of wood are of particular interest for interventions on built heritage because such heritage buildings often involve timber structures. Wooden dowels offer a lower cost when compared with other connectors and conform to the tendency for using wood-based solutions to retrofit timber structures.

Statistical Dependence Investigation Related to Dowel-Type Timber Joints [PDF]
, 2021 The design of timber connections with dowel-type fasteners is dependent on the knowledge of their mechanical behavior and failure modes. Concerning the main design parameters, the timber embedment strength and the dowel bending moment capacity are the parameters that govern the load-carrying capacity.
