En

by John J. J. Kim, Laurence R. Harris

Spatial updating, the ability to track the egocentric position of surrounding objects during self-motion, is fundamental to navigating around the world. However, people make systematic errors when updating the position of objects after linear self-motion. To determine the source of these errors, we measured errors in remembered target position with or without passive lateral translations. Self-motion was presented both visually (simulated in virtual reality)... Читать дальше...

Splitting grouting is widely used to reinforce unfavorable soil stratum. Inclined steel grouting pipe is a type of structure which can achieve splitting grouting in soil stratum. It has been successfully utilized in argillaceous sandstone stratum, but its application in loess stratum has rarely been studied directly. This research aims to compare and analyze the bearing capacity and effective anchorage lengths of inclined steel grouting pipes with anchorage lengths of 6 m... Читать дальше...

In the process of pushing the limits of human performance, competitive sports are dedicated to the pursuit of excellence. In this context, the concept of "momentum" has gained significant attention, as it is widely acknowledged to influence the outcomes of competitions. The question of whether momentum affects sports psychology and the mechanisms underlying its generation and influence merits thorough investigation. In this paper, taking the 7,284...

Introduction

Digital media have become integral to schoolchildren’s lives, both within educational and non-educational settings. Educators emphasize the importance of bridging the gap between school learning and children’s out-of-school activities. To identify potential variations and commonalities, we investigated key situations with digital media among lower secondary schoolchildren in Germany, aiming to determine which themes are especially relevant in different settings.
