Collective Locomotion as Collective Behavior
American Sociological Review, 1986Milling clusters, surges within gatherings, street actions, demonstration marches, and state processions are forms of social behavior with which we mark points along a continuum of collective locomotion. A theoretical framework, field observations, measurement criteria and procedures are presented to systematically describe variations in the complexity

Chaotic behavior in the locomotion ofamoeba proteus
Protoplasma, 2001The locomotion of Amoeba proteus has been investigated by algorithms evaluating correlation dimension and Lyapunov spectrum developed in the field of nonlinear science. It is presumed by these parameters whether the random behavior of the system is stochastic or deterministic.

Fast behavioral locomotion with layered navigation meshes
Proceedings of the ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games, 2018We address the problem of efficient navigation planning for virtual characters with multiple locomotion behaviors. One main difficulty in this problem is the need to rely on expensive collision detection computations which typically lead to methods unsuitable for realtime applications.

Employee work experience, locomotion, and voice behavior
Social Behavior and Personality: an international journal, 2016Experienced employees are a crucial asset and intelligent resource for organizations. In this study, we examined the effect of employee work experience on employee voice behavior. We also proposed employee locomotion as a factor that would affect voice behavior jointly with their work experience and we further proposed that work experience would ...

Behavioral Dynamics of Visually Guided Locomotion
2007In their seminal research on coordination dynamics, Scott Kelso and his colleagues have developed an account of biological coordination in which the organization of action is viewed as a species of self-organizing pattern formation. Motor patterns are understood as a reflection of stability properties in a complex dynamical system, such as phase ...

Muscle Fascicle and Tendon Behavior During Human Locomotion Revisited
Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, 2008High-speed ultrasonography has revealed that, in human locomotion, the nature of fascicle and tendon length changes varies depending on the task, contraction intensity, and the muscles involved. The findings emphasize that the active fascicles of the gastrocnemius muscle are suddenly stretched, although they are shortening.

Modification of Locomotive Behavior in a Severely Disturbed Psychotic
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1967Social reinforcement of self-wheeling by a psychotic effectively increased rate of self-wheeling more than 100% over the baseline of the operant.

Behavior shapes retinal motion statistics during natural locomotion
2022A bstract Walking through an environment generates retinal motion, which humans rely on to perform a variety of visual tasks. Retinal motion patterns are determined by an interconnected set of factors, including gaze location, gaze stabilization, the structure of ...

A mathematical model of adaptive behavior in quadruped locomotion
Biological Cybernetics, 1998Locomotion involves repetitive movements and is often executed unconsciously and automatically. In order to achieve smooth locomotion, the coordination of the rhythms of all physical parts is important. Neurophysiological studies have related that basic rhythms are produced in the spinal network called, the central pattern generator (CPG), where some ...

Modification of the initiation of locomotion inHermissenda: Behavioral analysis
Brain Research, 1983We have examined the effect of a conditioning procedure on various components of visually guided locomotion in Hermissenda. Temporally specific stimulation of the visual system and gravity detecting system (statocysts) with light and rotation produced long-term changes in locomotor behavior.
