Slips*

open access: yesNoûs, 2011
What kind of mistakes are slips? Why do they happen? The dissertation seeks to address these questions and to derive from their answers a more realistic understanding of everyday human action. The inspiration comes from psycholinguistics, where slips have played a central role in the construction of models of speech production.

Two-headed extensor digitorum longus with coexisting additional tendinous slips [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Morphologica, 2023
The extensor digitorum longus is a source of much anatomic variation, mostly related with extra tendinous slips or their unusual insertions. This report describes a new configuration of the extensor digitorum longus with two heads and two main tendons ...

Influence of Vertically Treaded Outsoles on Interfacial Fluid Pressure, Mass Flow Rate, and Shoe–Floor Traction during Slips

open access: yesFluids, 2023
Accidental injuries due to slips and falls are considered serious threats to public safety. Sufficient friction at the footwear and flooring interface is essential to reduce slip-related risks. The presence of slippery fluidic contaminants, such as water,

Plastic Mulch and In-row Spacing Effects on Sweetpotato Yield in Northwest Washington

open access: yesHortTechnology, 2022
Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) production in the northern United States is limited due to the perceived barriers of a short growing season and relatively cool summer temperatures, yet recent studies have shown yield in northern regions can be greater than

Aircraft Assembly Snags: Human Errors or Lack of Production Design?

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
To err is an intrinsic human trait, which means that human errors, at some point, are inevitable. Business improvement tools and practices neglect to deal with the root causes of human error; hence, they ignore certain design considerations that could ...

Provoking Artificial Slips and Trips towards Perturbation-Based Balance Training: A Narrative Review

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Humans’ balance recovery responses to gait perturbations are negatively impacted with ageing. Slip and trip events, the main causes preceding falls during walking, are likely to produce severe injuries in older adults.

A Novel Computational Model for Traction Performance Characterization of Footwear Outsoles with Horizontal Tread Channels

open access: yesComputation, 2023
Slips and falls are among the most serious public safety hazards. Adequate friction at the shoe–floor contact is necessary to reduce these risks. In the presence of slippery fluids such as water or oil, the footwear outsole is crucial for ensuring ...
