Adaptive changes in motor control of rhythmic movement after maximal eccentric actions.
2007
Effects of an exhaustive eccentric exercise (EE) on the motor control of maximal velocity rhythmic elbow extension/flexion movement (RM) were examined in eight male students. The exhaustive EE consisted of 100 maximal eccentric actions of the elbow flexor muscles. Movement range was 40-170 degrees in EE at an angular velocity of 2rads(-1). A directive scaled RM of 60 degrees with visual feedback was performed in a sitting position, with the right forearm fixed to the lever arm in horizontal plane above protractor. Surface electromyographic activity (EMG) was recorded from the biceps brachii (BB) and triceps brachii (TB) muscles. Maximal isokinetic eccentric and concentric tests and RM test …
Strange attractor for the renormalization flow for invariant tori of Hamiltonian systems with two generic frequencies
1999
We analyze the stability of invariant tori for Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom by constructing a transformation that combines Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser theory and renormalization-group techniques. This transformation is based on the continued fraction expansion of the frequency of the torus. We apply this transformation numerically for arbitrary frequencies that contain bounded entries in the continued fraction expansion. We give a global picture of renormalization flow for the stability of invariant tori, and we show that the properties of critical (and near critical) tori can be obtained by analyzing renormalization dynamics around a single hyperbolic strange attractor. We c…
Time scales of adaptive behavior and motor learning in the presence of stochastic perturbations.
2009
In this paper, the major assumptions of influential approaches to the structure of variability in practice conditions are discussed from the perspective of a generalized evolving attractor landscape model of motor learning. The efficacy of the practice condition effects is considered in relation to the theoretical influence of stochastic perturbations in models of gradient descent learning of multiple dimension landscapes. A model for motor learning is presented combining simulated annealing and stochastic resonance phenomena against the background of different time scales for adaptation and learning processes. The practical consequences of the model's assumptions for the structure of pract…
Hidden attractor and homoclinic orbit in Lorenz-like system describing convective fluid motion in rotating cavity
2015
Abstract In this paper a Lorenz-like system, describing convective fluid motion in rotating cavity, is considered. It is shown numerically that this system, like the classical Lorenz system, possesses a homoclinic trajectory and a chaotic self-excited attractor. However, for the considered system, unlike the classical Lorenz system, along with self-excited attractor a hidden attractor can be localized. Analytical-numerical localization of hidden attractor is demonstrated.
Hidden Strange Nonchaotic Attractors
2021
In this paper, it is found numerically that the previously found hidden chaotic attractors of the Rabinovich–Fabrikant system actually present the characteristics of strange nonchaotic attractors. For a range of the bifurcation parameter, the hidden attractor is manifestly fractal with aperiodic dynamics, and even the finite-time largest Lyapunov exponent, a measure of trajectory separation with nearby initial conditions, is negative. To verify these characteristics numerically, the finite-time Lyapunov exponents, ‘0-1’ test, power spectra density, and recurrence plot are used. Beside the considered hidden strange nonchaotic attractor, a self-excited chaotic attractor and a quasiperiodic at…
Scenario of the Birth of Hidden Attractors in the Chua Circuit
2017
Recently it was shown that in the dynamical model of Chua circuit both the classical selfexcited and hidden chaotic attractors can be found. In this paper the dynamics of the Chua circuit is revisited. The scenario of the chaotic dynamics development and the birth of selfexcited and hidden attractors is studied. It is shown a pitchfork bifurcation in which a pair of symmetric attractors coexists and merges into one symmetric attractor through an attractormerging bifurcation and a splitting of a single attractor into two attractors. The scenario relating the subcritical Hopf bifurcation near equilibrium points and the birth of hidden attractors is discussed.
On attracting sets in artificial networks: cross activation
2018
Mathematical models of artificial networks can be formulated in terms of dynamical systems describing the behaviour of a network over time. The interrelation between nodes (elements) of a network is encoded in the regulatory matrix. We consider a system of ordinary differential equations that describes in particular also genomic regulatory networks (GRN) and contains a sigmoidal function. The results are presented on attractors of such systems for a particular case of cross activation. The regulatory matrix is then of particular form consisting of unit entries everywhere except the main diagonal. We show that such a system can have not more than three critical points. At least n–1 eigenvalu…
Mutations in Romanian Agriculture after De-Collectivization and Privatization
2013
Abstract This paper aims at presenting mutations in agriculture occurred in the process of collectivization and privatization of it. In this paper we analyze the period 1990-2010 following: the dynamics of the use of the land by ownership, the dynamic structure of the value of agricultural production, the dynamic structure of the value of agricultural production and development park tractors and machinery on-farm ownership. In the analyzed period is shown that mutations that occurred in the ownership of the land and other means of production and the system of relations between agriculture and other sectors of the economy have influenced the evolution of the structure of agricultural product…
Researches on the Hydraulic Systems of Actioning the Suspension Mechanisms at Tractors
2010
SUMMARY The agricultural machines are coupled to tractor th rough the suspension mechanism in three points. The actioning of the suspension mechanisms is made by some hydraulic systems, which have the following component parts: tank, pu mp, distributer, valves, hydraulic cylinders, filters and hydraulic prizes. These systems must assure, between others, lifting in a convenient time of the carried machine from the work position to that of transport position, to allow the maintaining of the machine in any intermediary position, between the l owest limited position and the upper limited position and to assure the posibility to th e carried machine to follow the irregularities of the ground dur…
Ultrastructure of a muscle spindle-analogous receptor organ in the mandible of Oncopeltus fasciatus (Insecta, Heteroptera) with remarks on the homolo…
1985
A non-ciliary muscle receptor organ in the first mandibular retractor muscle of Oncopeltus fasciatus is described. The organ consists of two specialized muscle fibres of the first retractor, which are embedded in a thickened layer of connective tissue. The sensory innervation is supplied by three multiterminal sense cells sending several dendrites to the receptor muscle fibres. ‘Naked’ dendritic terminals are attached to the muscle surface or connective tissue fibrils. The far-reaching analogy of the receptor to the intrafusal chain-fibres of vertebrate muscle spindles is remarkable. The existence of a muscle receptor organ in the first mandibular retractor may serve as an argument in favor…
