New insights into muscle function during pivot feeding in seahorses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Seahorses, pipefish and their syngnathiform relatives are considered unique amongst fishes in using elastic recoil of post-cranial tendons to pivot the head extremely quickly towards small crustacean prey.

Exploring the Effects of Replicating Shape, Weight and Recoil Effects on VR Shooting Controllers [PDF]
, 2019 Commercial Virtual Reality (VR) controllers with realistic force feedback are becoming available, to increase the realism and immersion of first-person shooting (FPS) games in VR. These controllers attempt to mimic not only the shape and weight of real guns but also their recoil effects (linear force feedback parallel to the barrel, when the gun is ...

Recoil Control Analysis of Deepwater Drilling Riser Tension System
Shiyou jixie, 2020 The drilling riser tension system can mitigate the influence of the floating platform/ship heave motion on the riser and provide a nearly constant top tension force for the riser. Therefore, a large amount of energy is stored in the drilling riser system.

Observation and control of nonmonotonic recoils in a viscoelastic fluid
Physical Review ResearchWe experimentally study the relaxation dynamics of a colloidal particle in a micellar viscoelastic fluid following different driving protocols. When the particle is driven at constant velocity for a finite duration, its recovery to equilibrium is always monotonic.

An Evaluation of Magneto Rheological Dampers for Controlling Gun Recoil Dynamics
Shock and Vibration, 2001 The application of magneto rheological dampers for controlling recoil dynamics is examined, using a recoil demonstrator that includes a single‐shot 50 caliber BMG rifle action and a MR damper. The demonstrator is selected such that it can adequately represent the velocities that commonly occur in weapons with a recoil system, and can be used for ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Deep‐UV (258 nm) femtosecond pulses enable uniform amorphous silicon writing on Si(100)/(111) with a six‐fold larger fluence amorphization window than NIR methods. Optimized fluence and overlap yield 20–45 nm uniform and continuous amorphous layers. Microscopy shows sharp interfaces, and real‐time reflectivity reveals nanosecond melt–resolidification ...
