Mode switch assist combustion in a gasoline HCCI engine using high pressure fuel injection
Lean homogeneous charged compression ignition (HCCI) combustion achieves clean and high thermal efficiency, however the operating load range is limited by steep combustion and NOx emission near the high load.

Reducing bias in auditory duration reproduction by integrating the reproduced signal [PDF]
Duration estimation is known to be far from veridical and to differ for sensory estimates and motor reproduction. To investigate how these differential estimates are integrated for estimating or reproducing a duration and to examine sensorimotor biases ...

Surrogate modeling of waveform response using singular value decomposition and Bayesian optimization
In the early stage of vehicle development, it is required to implement a target cascading study by solving inverse problems. However, simulation costs of vehicle dynamics to predict transient responses and frequency responses make the target cascading ...

Robust Control Strategy for Robotic Motorcycle Without Falling Down at Low-Speed Driving
: This study discusses robust control problems related to the fall of two-wheel motor vehicles during parking or low-speed driving. The robotic motorcycle includes a new rotary axis that can vary the position of the total center of gravity.

Motor resonance meets motor performance [PDF]
The aim of the present work is to explore which of two different models better explains facilitation/interference effects when participants have to conditionally react to an observed action with a movement. The Dimensional Overlap model assumes two parallel routes, an automatic route and a rule-based one, that interact only when the stimulus-set and ...

An automation system for vehicle driveability evaluation using machine learning
The drivability is one of the important aspects of vehicle dynamic performances. To ensure quality of the drivability performance, comprehensive screening evaluation is necessary by controlling both complicated driver operation and vehicle behavior ...

Early motor trajectories predict motor but not cognitive function in preterm- and term-born adults without pre-existing neurological conditions [PDF]
Very preterm (VP; 0.05). Motor problems in childhood were homotypically associated with poorer motor competence in adulthood. Similarly, early cognitive problems were homotypically associated with adult cognitive outcomes. Thus, both motor and cognitive

Myosin motors power movements on actin filaments, whereas dynein and kinesin motors power movements on microtubules. The mechanisms of these motor proteins differ, but, in all cases, ATP hydrolysis and subsequent release of the hydrolysis products drives a cycle of interactions with the track (either an actin filament or a microtubule), resulting in ...

The General Motor Ability Hypothesis: An old idea revisited [PDF]
While specific motor abilities have become a popular explanation for motor performance, the older, alternate notion of a general motor ability should be revisited.

Development of the Design Methodology for a New De-NOx System
The design methodology for a new de-NOx system “DiAir” has been developed in this study. Based on the NOx reduction mechanism, the amplitude of hydrocarbon (HC) concentration and the uniformity of exhaust gas and HC at inlet of the catalyst have been ...
