Demand characteristics confound the rubber hand illusion [PDF]
Reports of experiences of ownership over a fake hand following simple multisensory stimulation (the ‘rubber hand illusion’) have generated an expansive literature.

High-speed, pressure-compensated variable displacement piston pumps are widely used in aircraft hydraulic systems for their high power density. The swash plate is controlled by the pressure-compensated valve, which uses pressure feedback so that the ...

An impedance approach to reduce the contact-instability whilst drilling with active heave compensation [PDF]
The bit-bounce, or contact-instability, phenomenon which occurs in the drill string suspended from a floating vessel with an active drill string compensator to maintain a steady weight on the drill bit is investigated.

Effects of nonuniform swash-plate stiffness on coupled blade-control system dynamics and stability [PDF]
Program has been developed that analytically determines effects of nonuniform swash-plate support stiffness, swash-plate flexibility, and out-of-blade track on vibratory mechanical stability characteristics of helicopter rotor systems.

WALOWA (wave loads on walls) : large-scale experiments in the delta flume [PDF]
Overtopping wave loads on vertical structures on top of a dike have been investigated in several small scale experiments in the past. A large-scale validation for a mild foreshore situation is still missing.

SWASH ZONE BED LEVEL CHANGES AND SEDIMENT ENTRAINMENT AT THE SURF-SWASH BOUNDARY [PDF]
In the process of estimating the effect of sediment advection into the swash zone from bore collapse, a method in which buried self-logging pressure transducers are used to measure bed level changes in the swash zone, over a timeframe of several hours to inter-swash level, has been tested against bed level changes obtained from rod measurements.

Oxide‐Free Titanium Coatings by Wire Arc Spraying in a Silane‐Doped Inert Atmosphere
A silane‐doped argon atmosphere enables the production of oxide‐free titanium coatings via twin‐wire arc spraying at ambient pressure. This innovative approach eliminates residual oxygen, creating process conditions that prevent oxidation and nitride formation.

Environmental Effects of Volcanic Volatile Fluxes From Subaerial Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Intertidal water column meiofauna in relation to wave intensity on an exposed beach
Since the 1970s, various studies have shown that some meiofaunal taxa frequently occur in the water column. Water currents or any process that disturbs the sediments are possible factors that can facilitate the passive entry of meiofauna in the water ...

An evaluation method of human standing stability by applying the disturbance of swash plate fall
This paper proposes a swash plate disturbance application device for human standing stability evaluation. It is known that when a mechanical disturbance is applied to the lower body, the COP (center of pressure) trajectory of the human is closely related
