An analog simulation of the postural control system (PCS) of a
dog is used to illustrate how modern systems simulation can be applied
to a study of complex life systems. Even though many bold
assumptions were required to adequately simplify the PCS model, the
simulation provided intuitive insight and gave...
This work has the purpose of presenting an approach to attitude
control applicable for sun alignment on scientific payloads.
As a primary source of information in order to obtain the alignment
error signals, four solar cells are disposed about the body of
the payload. As a secondary source a pair...
Most technological problems associated with man-machine conversations
have been solved and are well documented in both the
contemporary technical and lay literature. The major remaining
technological problem is the real time conversion of a human's vocal
uterances into a "written" phoneme sequence representing the information
content of speech. The work...
Welcome to the 4-H Sheep Project. You are joining an industry that returns millions of dollars to farmers each year, and caring for one of the oldest domesticated farm animals. Wool has been used for clothing since the days of the earlier settlers, and flocks of sheep have supplied both...
A static analysis of quadruped biomechanics, combined with
observations of longitudinal postural movement, has revealed important functional attributes of the postural control system. Since
posture is an outward expression of central nervous system (CNS)
behavior, these results may contribute to an understanding of integrative
functions of the CNS.
Beginning from...
Students will develop and apply reading, language arts, and science processes to analyze comics, and demonstrate writing skills in creating their own comic about a local invasive species.

The Skipping Stone is a collection of poetry investigating a wide range of themes: self-displacement, southern heritage, identity of the Self, loss, and grief. At times, the poems confess a kind of anxiety associated with experiencing the death of loved ones, acting as a coping mechanism for loss and self-exploration....
