Locomotion and nightwaking

Child: Care, Health and Development, 2005
Abstractobjective  In this study we addressed the association between two major achievements of infancy: independent locomotion and ‘sleeping through the night’ .Methods  Mothers of 107 healthy infants aged between five and eight months completed a sleep questionnaire and a motor checklist.Results and Conclusions  Infants who were already crawling had ...

Pygmy locomotion

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1994
The hypothesis that Pygmies may differ from Caucasians in some aspects of the mechanics of locomotion was tested. A total of 13 Pygmies and 7 Caucasians were asked to walk and run on a treadmill at 4-12 km.h-1. Simultaneous metabolic measurements and three-dimensional motion analysis were performed allowing the energy expenditure and the mechanical ...

The Locomotion of Nematodes

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1964
ABSTRACT The form and frequency of the waves passing down the bodies of small free-living nematodes (Panagrellus, Rhabditis and Turbatrix) depend on the nature of the external medium. Observations of animals moving in such media as syrup, agar gels, and dense suspensions of particles suggest that the relationship between the speed of ...

On the locomotion of mammals

The Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1948
By considering the general energy balance between the energy of muscular contraction in the extremities, kinetic energy imparted to the animal and the energy lost in the lifting of the center of gravity and in the possible muscular viscosity, an expression is derived for the speed of an animal in terms of the constant which determine its shape and ...

Bipedal Locomotion

Science, 1987
In the letter "Tanker 'dumping' regulations" by T. S. Wyman (5 June, p. 1160), the years of amendations to the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, mentioned in the second paragraph, were incorrect. The amendations were made in 1978, 1984, and 1985 (not 1987).

The Deltic locomotive

Proceedings of the IEE Part A: Power Engineering, 1958
After discussing the reasons for the production of low weight/power ratio locomotives and the influence of high-speed lightweight Diesel engines on this ratio, the paper describes a 3300 h.p. Diesel-electric locomotive with a service weight of 106 tons, and records the experience gained in the first 200 000 miles of service.
