  2. Core stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_stability

    In kinesiology, core stability is a person's ability to stabilize their core (all parts of the body which are not limbs). Stability, in this context, should be considered as an ability to control the position and movement of the core. Thus, if a person has greater core stability, they have a greater level of control over the position and ...

  3. Bistritz stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bistritz_stability_criterion

    [1] [2] The Bistritz test is the discrete equivalent of Routh criterion used to test stability of continuous LTI systems. This title was introduced soon after its presentation. [3] It has been also recognized to be more efficient than previously available stability tests for discrete systems like the Schur–Cohn and the Jury test. [4]

    In 1978, Harnad was the founder [13] of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, of which he remained editor-in-chief until 2002. [14] In addition, he founded Psycoloquy (an early electronic journal sponsored by the American Psychological Association), CogPrints (an electronic eprint archive in the cognitive sciences hosted by the University of Southampton), and the American Scientist Open Access Forum ...

  6. Limits of stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_stability

    The typical range of stable swaying is approximately 12.5° in the front-back (antero-posterior) direction and 16° in the side-to-side (medio-lateral) direction. [3] This stable swaying area is often referred to as the 'Cone of Stability', which varies depending on the specific task being performed. [3]

  7. Office for Science and Society - Wikipedia

    [3] The office pioneered the COursesOnline (COOL McGill) system, an initiative that started in 2000 with three professors and two programmers and now provides online versions of 350 courses. [4] The office is funded by McGill University. In 2011, the office received a $5.5-million grant from the Lorne Trottier Family Foundation. [1]

  8. Hardware stress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_stress_test

    A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
