Prey-Taxis vs. An External Signal: Short-Wave Asymptotic and Stability Analysis by Andrey Morgulis, Karrar H. Malal

“…Such an approach refers back to Kapitza’s theory for an upside-down pendulum. The overall conclusion is that the external signal is likely not capable of creating the instability domain in the parametric space from nothing but it can substantially widen the one that is non-empty with no signal.…”

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on spasticity in Multiple Sclerosis – protocol for a feasibility study for a randomized, crossover clinical trial by Fernanda Ishida Corrêa, Amanda Cristina da Silva Reis, Bruno Paulino Venâncio, João Carlos Ferrari Corrêa

“…The first session will be randomized to receive high (≥5Hz) or low frequency (≤1Hz) TMS over the left motor cortex; after one week they will receive the second session, which will be the opposite. Spasticity will be assessed bilaterally, before and after each intervention, using the Ashworth scale, the latency of TMS to the quadriceps muscles, the amplitude of the motor evoked potential, the central motor conduction time, the latency time of the patellar reflex, and the amplitude of the quadriceps pendulum test. …”

Flexible Model Predictive Control for Bounded Gait Generation in Humanoid Robots by Tianbo Yang, Yuchuang Tong, Zhengtao Zhang

“…Traditional Model Predictive Control (MPC) methods based on Linear Inverted Pendulum (LIP) or Cart–Table (C-T) methods are straightforward and linear but inadequate for robots with flexible joints and linkages. …”
