Two important stimulus features represented within the rodent barrel cortex are velocity and angular direction of whisker deflection. Each cortical barrel receives information from thalamocortical (TC ...

Abstract: A high-precision angular rate sensitive method of spacecraft based on deflection current and deflection angle measurement is proposed in this paper, in the view of this problem that the ...

The torsion pendulum is widely employed in gravitational experiments as a weak force sensitive instrument, and its resolution is limited by the thermal noise of the pendulum and detection noise of ...

To examine the active properties of layer 4 spiny stellate dendrites in the rodent barrel cortex and their role in synaptic integration, we first characterized layer 4 dendrites in vitro and then ...

An electrostatic torsion pendulum aiming at improving angulardeflection sensitivity without increasing torque noise floor ispresented. Theoretical analysis shows that this scheme could beused to relax ...

I was the engineering manager at Charmilles Technology Manufacturing Corp. (CTMC) in Owosso, Mich., where we produced a wide range of electrical discharge machining machine tools that included both ...
