Muscles that Move the Arm

4.8K
Nine muscles are involved in arm movements. Two of these, the pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi, originate from the axial skeleton and are called axial muscles. The other seven originate from the scapula and are called the scapular muscles.
The pectoralis major has two origins. Its clavicular head originates on the medial half of the clavicle. In contrast, the sternocostal head originates on the costal cartilages of ribs 1-6, the sternum, and the aponeurosis of the external oblique of the...

Time-Domain Interpretation of PD Control01:07

Time-Domain Interpretation of PD Control

396
Proportional-Derivative (PD) control is a widely used control method in various engineering systems to enhance stability and performance. In a system with only proportional control, common issues include high maximum overshoot and oscillation, observed in both the error signal and its rate of change. This behavior can be divided into three distinct phases: initial overshoot, subsequent undershoot, and gradual stabilization.
Consider the example of control of motor torque. Initially, a positive...

Time and frequency -Domain Interpretation of PI Control

410
Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers are essential in many control systems to improve stability and performance. They are commonly used in everyday devices like thermostats to enhance system damping and reduce steady-state error. When the zero in the controller's transfer function is optimally placed, the system benefits significantly in terms of stability and accuracy.
Acting as a low-pass filter, the PI controller slows the system's response and extends settling times. This requires...

Anatomical Movements00:51

Anatomical Movements

15.6K
Anatomical movements refer to the various actions or motions that can be performed by the body's joints and muscles. These movements are described using specific terms to provide a standardized way of discussing and understanding the range of motion at different joints.
Here are some common anatomical movements:
Flexion and extension motions are in the sagittal (anterior–posterior) plane of motion. These movements take place at the shoulder, hip, elbow, knee, wrist,...

Time and frequency -Domain Interpretation of Phase-lead Control

450
Phase-lead controllers are commonly used in various control systems to enhance response speed and stability. Adjusting the brightness on a television screen offers a practical example of phase-lead control. When contrast is enhanced, a phase-lead controller is employed. Mathematically, phase-lead control is identified when the first parameter is smaller than the second.
The design of phase-lead control involves the strategic placement of poles and zeros to balance steady-state error and system...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Motor Control
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Rhythmic motor behaviors, such as locomotion, rely on both visual and nonvisual cues for spatial and temporal regulation.
  • The precise role of nonvisual feedback (auditory and haptic) in controlling rhythmic arm movements remains less understood compared to visual feedback.
  • Previous research highlights vision's importance, but the contribution of other sensory pathways to motor control requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the specific functions of nonvisual sensory feedback in the context of rhythmic arm control.
  • To differentiate the roles of spatial accuracy and timing regulation in motor behavior.
  • To determine if auditory and haptic feedback can independently guide motor timing.

Main Methods:

  • A virtual reality paddle juggling task was employed, requiring participants to bounce a ball to a target height using a physical handle.
  • Visual feedback was minimized, focusing on spatial accuracy, while auditory and haptic feedback were provided at ball-paddle collisions.
  • Independent perturbations of spatial dimensions and feedback timing were applied to assess their distinct effects on motor control.

Main Results:

  • Separately perturbing spatial and timing information led to dissociable effects on movement accuracy and timing, respectively.
  • This confirms that rhythmic tasks involve distinct processes for spatial error correction and feedback timing synchronization.
  • Auditory and haptic feedback were found to be sufficient for timing synchronization, acting as metronome-like cues for hand movement initiation.

Conclusions:

  • Nonvisual sensory feedback (auditory and haptic) plays a critical role in synchronizing the timing of rhythmic arm movements.
  • Visual feedback is primarily utilized for correcting spatial errors in motor tasks.
  • Nonvisual event cues serve as essential timing regulators, resetting movement phases and complementing visual guidance.
