CRITICAL SPEED IN PEDESTRIANS’ RELATIVE MOTION REGARDING LIMITED VISIBILITY ZONE FROM DRIVER SEAT [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings on Engineering Sciences, 2023
Safe driving is related to the choice of speed by automobile drivers according to atmospheric conditions, as well as when driving in zones of both reduced visibility and of limited visibility. Reduced visibility is associated with natural phenomena, such

Empirical modeling of the relationship between decision sight distance and stopping sight distance based on AASHTO [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2018
The paper introduces implementation of highways' stopping sight distance (SSD) and decision sight distance (DSD) based on AASHTO modeling assumptions. SSD characterizes the necessary distance for highway vehicles to stop safely in front from an obstacle.

Specific but not general declines in attention and executive function with aging: Converging cross-sectional and longitudinal evidence across the adult lifespan

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
ObjectiveAttention and executive function (EF) are vulnerable to aging. However, whether all these functions generally decline with aging is not known. Furthermore, most evidence is based on cross-sectional data and fewer follow-up data are available in ...

Globus pallidus dynamics reveal covert strategies for behavioral inhibition

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Flexible behavior requires restraint of actions that are no longer appropriate. This behavioral inhibition critically relies on frontal cortex - basal ganglia circuits.

Subthalamic nucleus gamma activity increases not only during movement but also during movement inhibition

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Gamma activity in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is widely viewed as a pro-kinetic rhythm. Here we test the hypothesis that rather than being specifically linked to movement execution, gamma activity reflects dynamic processing in this nucleus.

Validity of an Inertial Measurement Unit System to Assess Lower-limb Kinematics during a Maximal Linear Deceleration

open access: yesCentral European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine, 2021
This study examined the validity of an inertial measurement unit system for measuring lower-limb joint kinematics during linear decelerations. A male team athlete (age 36 years, stature 1.75 m, mass 80.0 kg) performed multiple linear decelerations ...
