Human Movement Science, 2010
Recently Latash, Scholz, and Schöner (2007) proposed a new view of motor synergies which stresses the idea that the nervous system does not seek a unique solution to eliminate redundant degrees of freedom but rather uses redundant sets of elemental variables that each correct for errors in the other to achieve a performance goal.

Motor Control and Learning Theories
2015Patients who have suffered impairment of their neuromotor abilities due to a disease or accident have to relearn to control their bodies. For example, after stroke the ability to coordinate the movements of the upper limb in order to reach and grasp an object could be severely damaged.

Theory of Hysteresis-Motor Torque
Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1940THE object of this study is the development of a quantitative theory of hysteresis-motor torque, especially in relation to magnetic properties and dimensions. The theory is interpreted physically in an idealized case, and applied to a particular motor to verify the result experimentally.

2007
Evolution has created a class of proteins that have the ability to convert chemical energy into mechanical force. Some of these use the free energy of nucleotide hydrolysis as fuel, while others employ ion gradients. Some are “walking motors,” others rotating engines. Some are reversible; others are unidirectional.

Theory of the liquid film motor
Physical Review E, 2015The liquid film motor is a freely suspended liquid film placed between two capacitively coupled plates that rotates when an electric current is passed through it. Here we propose a theory for its rotation mechanism based on thin film electroconvection.

Motion Adaptation With Motor Invariant Theory
IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 2013Bipedal walking is not fully understood. Motion generated from methods employed in robotics literature is stiff and is not nearly as energy efficient as what we observe in nature. In this paper, we propose validity conditions for motion adaptation from biological principles in terms of the topology of the dynamic system.

Motor Habituation: Theory and Experiment
2020 Joint IEEE 10th International Conference on Development and Learning and Epigenetic Robotics (ICDL-EpiRob), 2020Habituation is the phenomenon that responses to a stimulus weaken over repetitions. Because habituation is selective to the stimulus, it can be used to assess infant perception and cognition. Novelty preference is observed as dishabituation to stimuli that are sufficiently different from the stimulus to which an infant was first habituated.

Movement Theory: Motor Behavior
1992In the Federal Republic of Germany, the development of sport science and the currently predominant understanding of science are also reflected in the subdiscipline of motor behavior. Corresponding to the diversity of forms of human movement depending on environmental and social conditions, of questions and problems ranging from movement disorders to ...

A Perceptual-Motor Theory of Emotion
Social Science Information, 1982Publisher Summary This chapter examines the current status of the motor theory of emotion and point the way to future developments. It offers an information-processing analysis of emotions that incorporates recent developments in the study of cognitive processes. This formulation is essentially a network analysis. The requirements for a theory of the

COSMO's “motor theory” is not the motor theory of Liberman, Cooper, and Mattingly
Journal of Phonetics, 2015Abstract The sensorimotor model of speech proposed in the target article has considerable value. The Bayesian implementation captures the probabilistic nature of between-person communicative interactions involving speech and the integrality of the speech perception and production systems. In the context of a simulation of between-person communication,
