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 ...

In this work, I construct a model of the TC, FS, and RS cells comprising a single barrel system-the model incorporates realistic synaptic connectivity and dynamics and simulates both angular direction ...

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 ...

A new interferometric method for ultra-precise measurement of laser-beam angular deflection is proposed. The angular tilt of a measuring device in relation to the beam axis also can be measured. The ...

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 ...

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 ...

Here, denotes that particle ℓ at position is in its excited state , while the other N – 1 particles remain in the ground state as illustrated in Fig. 1b. The excitation energy of particle ℓ is ħω ℓ, ...

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 ...
