We present a novel control strategy for running which is robust to disturbances, and makes excellent use of passive dynamics for energy economy. The motivation for our control strategy is based on observations of animals, which are able to economically walk and run over varying terrain and ground dynamics. It...
We present a model for running that combines active control with passive dynamics,
in an attempt to approach the economy and robustness of animal running. Our
work is inspired by examples of guinea fowl encountering an unexpected drop in
ground surface, with little a ect on their running gait. Previous...
Assembly and genotyping of polyploid genomes poses many problems due to the complex nature of polyploid data, including the inability to determine allelic dosage and mixed inheritance patterns. This study was the first application of POLiMAPS genotyping on whole genome sequences without using cross information. In this study, whole genome...
Background. The US commercial fishing industry is hazardous, as measured by mortality data. However, research on non-fatal injuries is limited. Non-fatal injuries constitute the majority of occupational injuries and can result in workers' lowered productivity and wages, lost quality of life, and disability. In the United States, a Work Process...
