Nature, 2002
Geomagnetic jerks, which in the second half of the twentieth century occurred in 1969 (refs 1, 2), 1978 (refs 3, 4), 1991 (ref. 5) and 1999 (ref. 6), are abrupt changes in the second time-derivative (secular acceleration) of the Earth's magnetic field.

Ergot, the “Jerks,” and Revivals

Epidemics of epilepsy, a form of mass hysteria, were known in Eastern and Western cultures in the 17th and 18th centuries. A unique situation in the United States during the 19th centurey was the frontier religious movement, the setting in which the "jerks" occurred.

Myoclonic ocular jerks

Annals of Neurology, 1983
AbstractA 39‐year‐old woman with a familial trait for myoclonic jerks of the neck presented with spontaneous 5‐ to 40‐degree single jerks of the eyes, usually upward, each producing a brief interruption in fixation. Eye movement recordings showed the myoclonic ocular jerks to be saccades with variable intersaccadic intervals.

The Jerk Dynamics of Chua's Circuit

International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2014
In this paper, the dynamics of Chua's circuit in jerk form is presented. It is proved that two forms of Chua's circuit in jerk dynamics can be derived. The electronic circuit of the simpler dynamics has been implemented. The link between Chua's circuit and the search for simple jerk circuits has been established, therefore, proposing complex dynamics (

KNEE JERK

Archives of Neurology & Psychiatry, 1931
The literature contains numerous accounts of the effects on the thoracic and abdominal viscera of stimulation of the exteroceptors. There are, however, few accounts of the effects on the neuromuscular apparatus of stimulation of the interoceptors. The early meager literature is referred to in a study of skeletal reflexes induced by stimulation of the ...

Jerk Nystagmus

Optometry and Vision Science, 1979
Abstract Eye movements in a subject with jerk nystagmus were recorded during a variety of tracking tasks using a photoelectric method. New findings included ability to reduce nystagmus amplitude and frequency when instructed “to hold the eye steady” rather than “to fixate” in the presence of a visible target, changes in nystagmus ...
