Motor directional tuning across brain areas: Directional resonance and the role of inhibition for directional accuracy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
Motor directional tuning (Georgopoulos et al., 1982) has been found in every brain area in which it has been sought for during the past 30-odd years.

Phase Dependency of the Human Primary Motor Cortex and Cholinergic Inhibition Cancelation during Beta tACS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The human motor cortex has a tendency to resonant activity at about 20 Hz so stimulation should more readily entrain neuronal populations at this frequency.

Action experience changes attention to kinematic cues

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
The current study used remote corneal reflection eye-tracking to examine the relationship between motor experience and action anticipation in 13-month-old infants.

Intraspecific Motor and Emotional Alignment in Dogs and Wolves: The Basic Building Blocks of Dog–Human Affective Connectedness

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Involuntary synchronization occurs when individuals perform the same motor action patterns during a very short time lapse. This phenomenon serves an important adaptive value for animals permitting them to socially align with group fellows thus increasing

Motor Resonance May Originate From Sensorimotor Experience

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2010
In humans, the motor system can be activated by passive observation of actions or static pictures with implied action. The origin of this facilitation is of major interest to the field of motor control. Recently it has been shown that sensorimotor learning can reconfigure the motor system during action observation.

Action Observation and Effector Independency

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
The finding of reasonably consistent spatial and temporal productions of actions across different body parts has been used to argue in favor of the existence of a high-order representation of motor programs.

Human Posterior Parietal Cortex Plans Where to Reach and What to Avoid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this time-resolved functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study, we aimed to trace the neuronal correlates of covert planning processes that precede visually guided motor behavior.

Brain Areas Associated with Force Steadiness and Intensity During Isometric Ankle Dorsiflexion in Men and Women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although maintenance of steady contractions is required for many daily tasks, there is little understanding of brain areas that modulate lower limb force accuracy.

Mitigation of cross-saturation effects in resonance-based sensorless switched reluctance drives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The stator and rotor yoke in a switched reluctance motor form magnetic circuit parts that are typically shared by different phases. If these parts saturate due to the excitation of one phase, this will lead to a change of the magnetic characteristics of ...
