From brain to motion: harnessing higher-derivative mechanics for neural control
25 novembre 2025, HE Louvain en HainautCeREF SantéCeREF TechniqueArticle scientifiqueOptimal Feedback Control provides a theoretical framework for goal-directed movements, where the nervous system adjusts actions based on sensory feedback. This theory assumes that there exists a cost function that is optimized throughout one's movement. It is natural to assume that mechanical quantities should be involved in cost functions, but this does not imply that the mechanical principles that ... -
Solving Raven’s Matrices While Walking on a Treadmill: Insights into Cognitive-Motor Interference Patterns in Dual-Task
30 septembre 2025, ESTISIMArticle scientifiqueThis study investigates cognitive-motor interference by combining Raven’s Progressive Matrices Test (RPMT) with treadmill walking. Two groups of healthy adults—20 young adults (born after 1995) familiar with treadmill walking and 18 older adults (born before 1980) without treadmill experience—completed both single-task and dual-task conditions. Cognitive performance (RPMT score) and gait ... -
Stress on the stride: How treadmill walking reveals gait variability differences in children, young adults, and seniors?
25 septembre 2025, CeREF SantéArticle scientifiqueThe assessment of gait variability is a valuable approach for characterizing an individual’s walking pattern over extended time scales. Variability parameters, such as the coefficient of variation, the Hurst exponent, and the Minkowski fractal dimension of the attractor, are influenced by factors like age, dual-task performance, and neurodegenerative conditions. Treadmill walking, a compact and ... -

The Two-Thirds Power Law Derived from a Higher-Derivative Action
11 novembre 2024, HE Louvain en HainautArticle scientifiqueThe two-thirds power law is a link between angular speed ω and curvature κ observed in voluntary human movements: ω is proportional to κ2/3. Squared jerk is known to be a Lagrangian leading to the latter law. However, it leads to unbounded movements and is therefore incompatible with quasi-periodic dynamics, such as the movement of the tip of a pen drawing ellipses. To solve this drawback, we ... -
Combien de temps mettrait Usain Bolt au 100 m sur la Lune ?
01 septembre 2025, HE Louvain en HainautPublication d'intérêt général/presseQuestion de Roland Ghelardi, Miramas (13) : Combien de temps mettrait Usain Bolt au 100 m sur la Lune ? Des calculs de biomécanique permettent de fournir une réponse précise. -
Boson stars and black holes with complex and real scalar hair
08 avril 2025, CeREF TechniqueArticle scientifiqueWe discuss boson stars and black holes with scalar hair in a model where the complex scalar field forming the boson star and the hair on the black hole, respectively, interacts with a real scalar field via a H´enon-Heiles-type potential. We demonstrate that black holes and boson stars carrying only a real scalar field with cubic self-interaction are possible and that black holes with both real ... -
Evaluating cervical spine mobility and Fitt’s law compliance: The DidRen laser test adapted for virtual reality with age and sex effects
28 août 2024, CeREF SantéCeREF TechniqueArticle scientifiqueCervical spine mobility assessment is crucial in rehabilitation to monitor patient progress. This study introduces the DidRen VR test, a virtual reality (VR) adaptation of the conventional DidRen laser test, aimed at evaluating cervical spine mobility. We conducted a cross-sectional study involving fifty healthy participants that underwent the DidRen VR test. The satisfaction of Fitts’ law within ... -
Q-balls and charged Q-balls in a two-scalar field theory with generalized Henon-Heiles potential
30 avril 2024, CeREF TechniqueArticle scientifiqueWe construct Q-ball solutions from a model consisting of one massive scalar field ξ and one massive complex scalar field ϕ interacting via the cubic couplings g1ξϕ ϕ þ g2ξ3, typical of Henon-Heiles-like potentials. Although being formally simple, these couplings allow for Q-balls. In one spatial dimension, analytical solutions exist, either with vanishing or nonvanishing ϕ. In three spatial ... -

Evaluating the additive diagnostic value of DidRen LaserTest: Correlating temporal and kinematic predictors and patient-reported outcome measures in acute-subacute non-specific neck pain
12 mars 2024, CeREF SantéArticle scientifiqueThis study aims to investigate the relationships between altered kinematic parameters, as assessed by the DidRen laser test, and PROMs. Using a multivariate logistic regression (LR) model, we sought to identify the best predictors for discriminating ANSP patients from HCP. We hypothesized that the DidRen laser test would reveal different relationships between kinematic parameters and PROMs ... -
Hamilton, Lagrange, le chaos. Cette Mécanique dans nos mouvements.
20 février 2024, CeREF SantéAutreLa compréhension des principes fondamentaux régissant les mouvements observés dans la Nature est un objectif fondamental de la science. Après les travaux pionniers de Newton (1643-1727), la Mécanique a considérablement évolué grâce aux reformulations de Lagrange (1736-1813) et de Hamilton (1805-1865). En invoquant un principe de moindre action, Lagrange a remplacé l'équation de Newton par la recherche ... -
Occupational Risk Factors for Musculoskeletal Disorders among Workers in Dairy Diversification
11 janvier 2024, CeREF SantéArticle scientifiqueAbstract Background: In a changing European agricultural context, diversification of dairy farms is gaining attention. This study seeks to (1) assess musculoskeletal pain prevalence associated with tasks such as butter, yogurt, and cheese production; and (2) analyze associated risks. Methods: Observing 31, mostly female, workers, we utilized the ERGOROM questionnaire, a methodology adapted from ... -
