The inter- and intra-observer reliability of a locomotion scoring scale for sheep [PDF]
A seven point locomotion scoring scale, ranging from 0 = normal locomotion to 6 = unable to stand or move, has been developed. To test the between and within observer reliability of the scale, 65 movie clips of sheep with normal and varying degrees of ...

Circadian Rhythms of Crawling and Swimming in the Nudibranch Mollusc Melibe leonina [PDF]
Daily rhythms of activity driven by circadian clocks are expressed by many organisms, including molluscs. We initiated this study, with the nudibranch Melibe leonina, with four goals in mind: (1) determine which behaviors are expressed with a daily ...

Path planning for reconfigurable rovers in planetary exploration [PDF]
This paper introduces a path planning algorithm that takes into consideration different locomotion modes in a wheeled reconfigurable rover. Such algorithm, based on Fast Marching, calculates the optimal path in terms of power consumption between two ...
