We examined whether the higher-order cognitive functions are involved in the activations in the mirror neuron area when we perceive simplified pseudo-postures. We measured 14 participants’ brain activation during the posture-recognition task using near-infrared spectroscopy. The participants’ task was to observe five sequentially presented target pseudo-postures and judge whether a test pseudo-posture was identical to one of the preceding five target pseudo-postures. The results in the majority of participants (n = 10/14) revealed that the activity in the inferior frontal mirror neuron area is modulated by perception of human-likeness, but not in the remaining four participants (n = 4/14). These results suggest that the degree of the activation of higher-order cognitive functions, which may be engaged in the inhibitory and/or facilitative processing of human body or bodily movement, leads to the distinctive activities in the inferior frontal mirror neuron area.展开更多

To study this effect, a mathematical model was established to analyze the motion of a planar reciprocating vibrating screen, and a matrix method was employed to derive its equa- tion of motion. The motion of the screen was simulated numerically and analyzed using MATLAB. The results show that the screen undergoes non-simple harmonic motion and the law of motion of each point in the screen is different. The tilt angle of the screen during screening is not constant but varies according to a specific periodic function. The results of numerical simulations were verified through experiments. A high-speed camera was used to track the motion of three points in the longitudinal direction of the screen. The balance equation for forces acting on a single particle on the screen was derived based on the non-simple harmonic motion of the screen, These forces were simulated using MATLAB. Different types of particle motion like slipping forward, moving backward, and being tossed to different parts of the screen were analyzed. A vibro-impact motion model for a particle on the non-simple harmonic vibrating screen was established based on the nonlinear law of motion of the particle. The stability of fixed points of the map is discussed. Regimes of different particle behaviors such as stable periodic motion, period-doubling bifurcation motion, Hopf bifurcation motion, and chaotic motion were obtained. With the actual law of motion of the screen and the behavior of a particle on the screen, a theoretical basis for design optimization of the screen is provided.展开更多

The accuracy of the numerical method has been validated by wind tunnelexperiments. The flow structure, slipstream and aerodynamic force around the train under stationary and moving ground conditionswere compared. Track and ground play a leading role in the influence of wake vortex structure;the flow structure around the trainis more complex under the stationary ground boundary condition. Near the nose point of the head and tail vehicles, the peak valueof the slipstream under the condition of moving ground is slightly higher than that under stationary ground. In the wake area, theeffect of themain vortex structure on both sides of the tail vehicle and the trackmakes the vortex structure in the wake area strongerthan that under moving ground, the slipstream peak is larger and the locus thereof is further forward. In the horizontal direction, thevortex desorption energy near the nose tip of the train is higher on stationary ground, while the vortex desorption energy far fromthe nose tip of the train is higher on moving ground. Compared with the static ground boundary condition, the resistance coefficientof the head and tail of a maglev train increases by 3.45% and 3.31% respectively under the moving ground boundary condition. Thelift coefficient decreases by 157.78% and 5.13%, respectively.展开更多
