Readaptation Treatment of Mal de Debarquement Syndrome With a Virtual Reality App: A Pilot Study
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Mal de Debarquement syndrome (MdDS) is composed of constant phantom sensations of motion, which are frequently accompanied by increased sensitivity to light, inability to walk on a patterned floor, the sensation of ear fullness, head pressure, anxiety ...

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Shake table testing of a rocking podium: Results of a blind prediction contest
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020 Rocking motion is sensitive to the boundary and initial conditions of a rocking structure, making experiments nonrepeatable. Thus, the claims that numerical rocking motion models are not only inaccurate but that all rocking structures behave ...

Sleep Induction by Mechanosensory Stimulation in Drosophila
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: People tend to fall asleep when gently rocked or vibrated. Experimental studies have shown that rocking promotes sleep in humans and mice. However, the mechanisms underlying the phenomenon are not well understood.

Light‐Driven Continual Oscillatory Rocking of a Polymer Film
ChemistryOpen, 2020 Achieving oscillatory motion in polymers without requiring on/off switching of stimuli is a current challenge. Hereby, a free‐standing liquid crystal polymer (LCP) is demonstrated to undergo a sustained oscillatory motion when triggered by light, moving ...

The comparison of the effects of massaging and rocking on infantile colic
Iranian Journal of Nursing and Midwifery Research, 2017 Introduction: Infantile colic is a painful condition in the first months of infancy. This study was carried out with the aim of testing the hypothesis that massage treatment has a clinically relevant effect on this condition.

Practical research of free standing rack (Seismic experiment study on full scale free standing rack)
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 The spent fuel taken out of a plant reactor is temporarily stored in a spent fuel rack. This fuel will often have to be stored in the rack for long periods before it can be moved to a reprocessing facility. Therefore, the spent fuel rack must have a high
