During constant-velocity rotation about a tilted axis (OVAR), the VOR and the rotation perception last indefinitely, but show a striking dependency on tilt angle. We show that, during OVAR, a variety of motions can account for the head motion relative to gravity. Some of these are in conflict with canal signals, but correspond to a lower angular velocity; we suggest that the brain performs a trade-off in order to select the best motion. We show that this theory explains the effect of tilt angle on velocity estimation during OVAR.

Molecular arrangement in the chiral smectic phases of the glassforming (S)-4'-(1-methylheptylcarbonyl)biphenyl-4-yl 4-[7-(2,2,3,3,4,4,4-heptafluorobutoxy) heptyl-1-oxy]benzoate is investigated by X-ray diffraction. An increased correlation length of the positional short-range order in the supercooled state agrees with the previous assumption of the hexatic smectic phase. However, the registered X-ray diffraction patterns are not typical for the hexatic phases.

Flat bands have empowered novel phenomena such as robust canalization with strong localization, high-collimation and low-loss propagation. However, the spatial symmetry protection in photonic or acoustic lattices naturally forces flat bands to manifest in pairs aligned at an inherently specific angle, resulting in a fixed bidirectional canalization. Here, we report an acoustic flat-band metasurface, allowing not only unidirectional canalization at all in-plane angles but also robust tunability in band alignment.

Purpose: To clarify the location of the popliteal artery (PA) is relative to the tibial osteotomy plane in patients with medial and lateral unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (KOA) undergoing UKA.
Methods: Preoperative MRI and postoperative radiographs obtained from 50 patients with unicompartmental KOA who underwent fixed-bearing UKA were analyzed. The amount of tibial resection was determined from the surgical records, and a line was drawn parallel to the tibial posterior tilt angle on the sagittal MR image to create a virtual tibial cut line.

With the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, data monitoring and collecting in the manufacturing process become essential. Pointer meter reading recognition (PMRR) is a key element in data monitoring throughout the manufacturing process. However, existing PMRR methods have low accuracy and insufficient robustness due to issues such as blur, uneven illumination, tilt, and complex backgrounds in meter images.
