The Sense of Propulsion: Sartre’s Freedom as Deleuzian Force
Research in Phenomenology, 2022 Abstract This paper will revitalize the notion of force in Sartre’s phenomenology by reinterpreting thrown-projection as propulsion. From there, Sartre’s analysis of agency will be explored as regards the constitutive moments pertaining to the dynamics of striving.

Ankle-targeted exosuit resistance increases paretic propulsion in people post-stroke
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2023 Background Individualized, targeted, and intense training is the hallmark of successful gait rehabilitation in people post-stroke. Specifically, increasing use of the impaired ankle to increase propulsion during the stance phase of gait has been linked ...

Trudy Odesskogo Politehničeskogo Universiteta, 2019 The working process of rolling the wheel propulsion is accompanied by compression and extension of the tire during its deformation. To improve the operability of mobile energy, much attention is paid to the problem of increasing the efficiency of ...

Optical trapping reveals propulsion forces, power generation and motility efficiency of the unicellular parasites Trypanosoma brucei brucei [PDF]
, 2014 Unicellular parasites have developed sophisticated swimming mechanisms to survive in a wide range of environments. Cell motility of African trypanosomes, parasites responsible for fatal illness in humans and animals, is crucial both in the insect vector ...

Swimming propulsion and muscle force moments [PDF]
Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems, 2010 Based on 3D video analysis of swimming movements hypotheses on the mechanisms of propulsion are deduced. Body point coordinates and their first and second derivatives are computed. The limb environment where water particle displacement occurs is estimated. We apply the Navier–Stokes equation to compute the total force for those particles.

Phase and coherence analysis of VHF scintillation over Christmas Island [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2014 This short paper presents phase and coherence data from the cross-wavelet transform applied on longitudinally separated very high frequency (VHF) equatorial ionospheric scintillation observations over Christmas Island. The phase and coherence analyses

Electroacoustic-Propulsion [PDF]
, 2018 Present and future spaceflight missions depend on the ability to produce high exhaust velocities while reducing the dependence on chemical fuel and its mass onboard a spaceflight vehicle. Oscillation of gaseous molecules during pre-ejection stages via an
