The efficacy and physiological bases of small muscle mass exercise in health and disease
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The conventional approach to aerobic exercise prescription involves large muscle mass exercise and the manipulation of variables such as training intensity, duration and frequency to promote desired adaptations. However, during whole‐body exercise, central limitations (i.e., neural, pulmonary and/or cardiac) constrain exercise tolerance and ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The present study examined the cardiovascular, metabolic, neuromuscular and perceptual effects of low‐intensity jumping in simulated lunar gravity (∼20% bodyweight) with blood flow restriction (BFR). Fourteen healthy adults (24 ± 4 years; 1.81 ± 0.06 m; 75 ± 12 kg) completed an incremental jumping test in simulated lunar gravity (9.5° head‐up ...

Using Fitts Law’ to detect intentional misrepresentation [PDF]
, 2015 In paralympic classification, tests of impaired coordination (e.g., reciprocal tapping tasks) are effort dependent and therefore susceptible to intentional misrepresentation of abilities (IM)-deliberate exaggeration of impairment severity.

Mid-Air Gestural Interaction with a Large Fogscreen
Multimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2023 Projected walk-through fogscreens have been created, but there is little research on the evaluation of the interaction performance with fogscreens. The present study investigated mid-air hand gestures for interaction with a large fogscreen. Participants (

Making Faces: Evaluating Facial Control Methods in VR for Live Conversations
Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds, Volume 37, Issue 3, May/June 2026.This paper investigates avatar facial expression control during live dyadic conversations in virtual reality. It compares face tracking with two controller‐based thumbstick methods designed for VR devices without facial tracking, focusing on how these approaches support co‐presence, usability, and expressive communication.
