Physics-Based Motion Retiming

1995
By changing only the playback timing of a motion sequence, an animator can achieve a variety of effects that alter our perception of an event. In some scenarios, it may be important to consider physical properties of the motion when retiming (e.g., to preserve physical plausibility). However, existing retiming solutions can be quite time consuming when

THE PHYSICS OF TROPICAL CYCLONE MOTION

Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2005
▪ Abstract  This article reviews our current understanding of the physical mechanisms governing the movement of a tropical cyclone. In a barotropic framework, a tropical cyclone is basically “steered” by the surrounding flow but its movement is modified by the Coriolis force (referred to as the beta effect) and the horizontal vorticity gradient of the

Inertial and Accelerated Motion in Spacetime Physics

2021
Employing Minkowski’s program for regarding physics as geometry of the real spacetime produces spectacular results – it explained the principle of inertia, the principle of relativity (including the constancy of the speed of light), why acceleration is absolute in both special and general relativity, that absolute acceleration is a manifestation of an ...

The conceptualization of cases of physical motion

European Journal of Psychology of Education, 1989
The question addressed in the present article concerns the contextual character of students’ conceptions of cases of psysical motion. An interview investigation with students following the mechanical engineering line of study at Chalmers University of Technology, Goteborg, Sweden was carried out during the students’ first year of study, before and ...

The Statistical Physics of Aperiodic Motion

1998
What physical quantity can we use to capture and describe the multitude of invariant sets and the local structure of unstable manifolds W u that determine the form and structure of chaos? By introducing the expansion rate of neighboring orbits, which expresses the stretching and folding of segments of W u, and the local dimension, which describes the ...

Particles and motion in Spinoza's physics

1969
The central aim of my thesis is to enquire into Spinoza's theory of the structure of the physical universe. It is generally accepted that from a scientific point of view Spinoza regarded the universe as consisting of particles in motion. My major concern is with the nature of these particles and what role they play in his cosmology.

Does Physical Motion Matter? The Encoding Differences between Fictive and Physical Motion Events

Cognitive Semantics, 2017
This study aims to explore linguistic differences between fictive motion expressions and physical motion event expressions in Chinese. Although both types of expressions are associated with dynamic linguistic forms, they describe different types of semantic content.

Sensitization of Visually Induced Motion Sickness by Prior Provocative Physical Motion

Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance
INTRODUCTION: Habituation to motion has therapeutic applications for motion sickness desensitization and rehabilitation of patients with vestibular disease. Less attention has been devoted to the opposite process: sensitization. METHODS: Subjects (N = 50) were randomly allocated to four sequences: Baseline visual stimulus; then 15 min of time gap ...
