Role of vision in static balance in persons with and without visual impairments.
European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2021BACKGROUND Vision is one of the elements of the system responsible for maintaining static balance. Any visual impairments or conditions hampering the reception of visual stimuli may affect static balance.

On the Impedance of Statically-Balanced Mechanisms [PDF]
Volume 6: 35th Mechanisms and Robotics Conference, Parts A and B, 2011 Statically-balanced technology is often used to compensate partial or full gravity force exerting on a mechanism in order to reduce the effort of driving the mechanism. Since such compensation is static, when a statically-balanced mechanism is used for dynamic applications, it will still have impedance (mechanical resistance to input motion) because ...

Static balancing behaviour of the mandible
European Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of physiological control of the craniomandibular system during force‐controlled biting: in intercuspation, restricted by predetermined anatomic–geometrical conditions [i.e. biting in intercuspation (BIC)]; and on a hydrostatic system [i.e.

Precision Engineering, 2016
Abstract Conventional brakes require a powerful actuator, leading to large, heavy and in most cases energy consuming brakes. This paper introduces a fundamentally different brake concept called statically balanced brakes (SBBs). SBBs do not require any actuation force to maintain a braking torque and only have to move a small mass to vary that torque.

Static Balancing of Tensegrity Mechanisms
Volume 7: 29th Mechanisms and Robotics Conference, Parts A and B, 2005The computation of the equilibrium configurations of tensegrity mechanisms is often a very tedious task even for relatively simple architectures. However, it has been observed that the complexity of this problem is significantly reduced when gravitational loads are compensated with the use of static balancing techniques.

Static Balance Norms in Children
Physiotherapy Research International, 2013The ability to sustain single leg stance and tandem stance is often used to determine the balance abilities of children, particularly after ankle or foot injury. The aim of this study was to assess performance norms on timed static balance tests in children aged 4 to 15 years.Cross-sectional studyChildren from schools across the Republic of Ireland (n =

Vibration Effects on Static Balance and Strength
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a vibration training protocol and a conventional strength training program consisting of similar exercises on knee extensors and flexors strength and postural sway in middle-aged women. 38 women were randomly assigned into a Vibration Group (n=12, static and dynamic exercises on a vibration ...

The Role of Peripheral Vision in Static Balancing
Ergonomics, 1967Abstract A study was made to determine the role of peripheral vision in static balancing. Three groups of subjects were tested under sighted and blindfold conditions, and also under a minimal cues condition. One of these groups was trained in the use of peripheral vision and after five days achieved sighted competence under the minimal cues condition ...
