Are non-slip socks really 'non-slip'? An analysis of slip resistance [PDF]
BMC Geriatrics, 2009 Non-slip socks have been suggested as a means of preventing accidental falls due to slips. This study compared the relative slip resistance of commercially available non-slip socks with other foot conditions, namely bare feet, compression stockings and conventional socks, in order to determine any traction benefit.Phase one involved slip resistance ...

Tripping Elicits Earlier and Larger Deviations in Linear Head Acceleration Compared to Slipping. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Slipping and tripping contribute to a large number of falls and fall-related injuries. While the vestibular system is known to contribute to balance and fall prevention, it is unclear whether it contributes to detecting slip or trip onset. Therefore, the

Stability of a chain of phase oscillators [PDF]
, 2011 We study a chain of N + 1 phase oscillators with asymmetric but uniform coupling. This type of chain possesses 2 N ways to synchronize in so-called traveling wave states, i.e., states where the phases of the single oscillators are in relative equilibrium.

Investigation and Control Technology on Excessive Ammonia-Slipping in Coal-Fired Plants
Energies, 2020 After the implementation of the ultra-low emissions regulation on the coal-fired power plants in China, the problem of the excessive ammonia-slipping from selective catalytic reduction (SCR) seems to be more severe.

Effect of friction in a toy model of granular compaction
, 2004 We proposed a toy model of granular compaction which includes some resistance due to granular arches. In this model, the solid/solid friction of contacting grains is a key parameter and a slipping threshold Wc is defined.

Emerging role of ARHGAP29 in melanoma cell phenotype switching
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study gives first insights into the role of ARHGAP29 in malignant melanoma. ARHGAP29 was revealed to be connected to tumor cell plasticity, promoting a mesenchymal‐like, invasive phenotype and driving tumor progression. Further, it modulates cell spreading by influencing RhoA/ROCK signaling and affects SMAD2 activity. Rho GTPase‐activating protein

Locomotion Control of Snake-Like Robot with Rotational Elastic Actuators Utilizing Observer
Applied Sciences, 2019 The purpose of this paper is designing a head control system capable of adapting to passive side-slipping. The environments in which snake-like robots are expected to be utilized generally have ground surface conditions with nonuniform frictional ...
