Neuromuscular performance of paretic versus non-paretic plantar flexors after stroke.
Marius Steiro Fimland, Per Marius R Moen, Tessa Hill, Tor Ivar Gjellesvik, Tom Tørhaug, Jan Helgerud, Jan Hoff
Jun 18, 2018
The objective of this study was to compare the neuromuscular function of the paretic and non-paretic plantar flexors (i.e. soleus, gastrocnemius medialis, lateralis) in chronic stroke patients. It was hypothesized that the...
Maximum-Entropy Priors with Derived Parameters in a Specified Distribution.
We propose a method for transforming probability distributions so that parameters of interest are forced into a specified distribution. We prove that this approach is the maximum-entropy choice, and provide a motivating example...
Local transformations of the hippocampal cognitive map.
Grid cells are neurons active in multiple fields arranged in a hexagonal lattice and are thought to represent the "universal metric for space." However, they become nonhomogeneously distorted in polarized enclosures, which...
Energy efficiency drives the global seasonal distribution of birds.
The uneven distribution of biodiversity on Earth is one of the most general and puzzling patterns in ecology. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain it, based on evolutionary processes or on constraints related to...
Mechanisms of Oxidation Degradation of Cr12 Roller Steel during Thermal Fatigue Tests
Degradation by the penetration of oxidation into the Cr12 roller steel is evaluated during thermal fatigue tests in the laboratory in the temperature range of 500–700 °C. A qualitative assessment is carried out with...
Fully autonomous micro air vehicle flight and landing on a moving target using visual–inertial estimation and model‐predictive control
Dimos Tzoumanikas, Wenbin Li, Marius Grimm, Ketao Zhang, Mirko Kovac, Stefan Leutenegger
Jan 01, 2019
The Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) held in spring 2017 was a very successful competition well attended by teams from all over the world. One of the challenges (Challenge 1) required an aerial robot...
Thermodynamics of high-pressure ice phases explored with atomistic simulations
Aleks Reinhardt, Mandy Bethkenhagen, Federica Coppari, Marius Millot, Sebastien Hamel, Bingqing Cheng
Aug 11, 2022
Most experimentally known high-pressure ice phases have a body-centred cubic (bcc) oxygen lattice. Our large-scale molecular-dynamics simulations with a machine-learning potential indicate that, amongst these bcc ice phases...
Substitution of the native <i>srfA</i> promoter by constitutive P<i>veg</i> in two <i>B. subtilis </i>strains and evaluation of the effect on surfactin production
Judit Willenbacher, Teresa Mohr, Marius Henkel, Susanne Gebhard, Thorsten Mascher, Christoph Syldatk, Rudolf Hausmann
Apr 01, 2016
The genetic enhancement of Surfactin production increasingly gained attention in the last years, since relatively low product yields limit the industrial application of this biosurfactant. The natural quorum sensing regulation...
Modified MRI Anonymization (De-Facing) for Improved MEG Coregistration.
Ricardo Bruña, Delshad Vaghari, Andrea Greve, Elisa Cooper, Marius O Mada, Richard N Henson
Nov 27, 2022
Localising the sources of MEG/EEG signals often requires a structural MRI to create a head model, while ensuring reproducible scientific results requires sharing data and code. However, sharing structural MRI data often requires...
On Merve Sancak's Institutions, Skills, Production Regimes and the Near Periphery, Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2022
A leading scholar on the political economy of skill formation, Kathleen Thelen once noted that focusing on vocational training may not be the ‘most scintillating’ topic for some social scientists (Thelen, 2004, p. xi). Sancak’s...

Self-prioritization and perceptual matching
Marius Golubickis, Johanna K. Falben, Arash Sahraie, Aleksandar Visokomogilski, William A. Cunningham, Jie Sui, C. Neil Macrae
Oct 01, 2017
Recent research has revealed that self-referential processing enhances perceptual judgments — the so-called self-prioritization effect. The extent and origin of this effect remains unknown, however. Noting the multifaceted...
Bioinspired design of a landing system with soft shock absorbers for autonomous aerial robots
Ketao Zhang, Pisak Chermprayong, Dimos Tzoumanikas, Wenbin Li, Marius Grimm, Mariusz Smentoch, Stefan Leutenegger, Mirko Kovac
Dec 22, 2018
One of the main challenges for autonomous aerial robots is to land safely on a target position on varied surface structures in real‐world applications. Most of current aerial robots (especially multirotors) use only rigid...

Simulation-based reconstruction of global bird migration over the past 50,000 years.
Marius Somveille, Martin Wikelski, Robert M Beyer, Ana S L Rodrigues, Andrea Manica, Walter Jetz
Mar 25, 2020
Migration is a widespread response of birds to seasonally varying climates. As seasonality is particularly pronounced during interglacial periods, this raises the question of the significance of bird migration during past...
