Effect of Stance Width on Multidirectional Postural Responses

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2001
The effect of stance width on postural responses to 12 different directions of surface translations was examined. Postural responses were characterized by recording 11 lower limb and trunk muscles, body kinematics, and forces exerted under each foot of 7 healthy subjects while they were subjected to horizontal surface translations in 12 different ...

Runway Width Effects in the Visual Approach to Landing

The International Journal of Aviation Psychology, 2001
The effect of changes in runway width on the perception of glide-slope has been the subject of extensive investigations. Despite considerable research, an explanation of this effect has been elusive. A mathematical model for glide-slope perception was published recently based on the premise that a desirable goal of perception is to form a perception ...

Effective vehicle width in self-paced tracking

Applied Ergonomics, 1992
In self-paced tracking tasks, such as driving, the speed is related to the lateral tolerance. This lateral tolerance has been varied in two ways in previous studies by changing the track width for constant vehicle width and vice versa. The current study used both an automobile driving task and a computer/mouse task to show that these two ways of ...

Effective Width of Orthotropic Plate

Journal of the Structural Division, 1978
Slab-column structural systems are often analyzed for lateral loads imposed by earthquake or wind by assuming that an ..effective width.. of the slab acts as a beam. The usefulness of this approach is attested to by the large number of publications that have approach is attested to by the large number of publications that have appeared on this subject.

Slit-Width Effects in Spectrophotometry

Journal of the Optical Society of America, 1950
A technique is suggested which allows an estimate to be made of the errors introduced into spectrophotometric measurements by the use of slits of finite width. The technique depends upon approximate analytic expressions for the slit function, the variation of the instrument sensitivity with wave-length, and the variation of the absorption coefficient ...

The effective width of T beams

Magazine of Concrete Research, 1964
Summary A method is described for the accurate determination of effective widths of isolated T beams and of T and L beams which form part of a larger structure. This method takes into account the bending stiffness of the flanges in a more satisfactory way than has been used hitherto.

Effects of width increase in the ballistic quantum wire

Physical Review B, 1992
We investigate the effects of a width increase on the electronic properties of ballistic quantum wires by evaluating the local density of states and the conductance. A local widening of the quantum wire introduces dip structures in addition to the well-known steplike structures of the conductance.

Width effects on bilayer graphene nanoribbon polarons

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics
The work reports the width effects on the formation of interlayer polarons on graphene nanoribbon bilayers. Their properties greatly depend on the width extension. The 3p and 3p + 1 family grouping is recovered for the polaron states.

The Effects of Reducing the Impeller Width

1996
One of the means used in industry for altering the performance of a pump, is to reduce the width of the impeller. In the case of a semi-open impeller, the procedure is simple. Machine the open face of the blades until the impeller width is reduced to the desired magnitude.

Effect of conductor width on coil array coupling

ISMRM Annual Meeting
This study investigates the effect of conductor width of the RF coils to the EM coupling of an array. The results show that the wide conductor of the RF coils offers less EM coupling among resonant elements.
