The Visibility Center of a Simple Polygon [PDF]
, 2021 We introduce the visibility center of a set of points inside a polygon - a point c_V such that the maximum geodesic distance from c_V to see any point in the set is minimized. For a simple polygon of n vertices and a set of m points inside it, we give an

Effects of Transcutaneous Spinal Direct Current Stimulation (tsDCS) in patients with chronic pain : A clinical and neurophysiological study [PDF]
, 2021 Background and Aims: Chronic pain is a complex clinical condition, often devastating for patients and unmanageable with pharmacological treatments. Converging evidence suggests that transcutaneous spinal Direct Current Stimulation (tsDCS) might represent

Cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation improves focal hand dystonia in musicians: A two-case study [PDF]
, 2017 Focal hand dystonia (FHD) in musicians is a movement disorder causing abnormal movements and irregularities in playing. Since weak electrical currents applied to the brain induce persistent excitability changes in humans, cathodal tDCS was proposed as a ...

Influence of an Acute Exposure to a Moderate Real Altitude on Motoneuron Pool Excitability and Jumping Performance [PDF]
, 2022 The aim of the study was to test whether ascending to a moderate real altitude affects motoneuron pool excitability at rest, as expressed by a change in the H-reflex amplitude, and also to elucidate whether a possible alteration in the motoneuron pool ...

Promoting post-stroke recovery through focal or whole body vibration: criticisms and prospects from a narrative review [PDF]
, 2019 Objective: Several focal muscle vibration (fMV) and whole body vibration (WBV) protocols have been designed to promote brain reorganization processes in patients with stroke. However, whether fMV and WBV should be considered helpful tools to promote post-

Advanced emergency braking under split friction conditions and the influence of a destabilising steering wheel torque [PDF]
, 2017 The steering system in most heavy trucks is such that it causes a destabilising steering wheel torque when braking on split friction, that is, different friction levels on the two sides of the vehicle. Moreover, advanced emergency braking systems are now

Effect of intensity and duration of conditioning protocol on post-activation potentiation and changes in H-reflex [PDF]
, 2011 [Abstract]: The force enhancement of muscle twitch contraction after a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) has been defined as post-activation potentiation. However, the effects of post-activation potentiation on ballistic movements have not been studied
