We describe a physical approach to biological functions, with the emphasis on the motor
and sensory functions. The approach assumes the existence of biology-specific laws of …

Behavior of biological systems is based on basic physical laws, common across inanimate
and living systems, and currently unknown physical laws that are specific for living systems …

Physics of Biological Action and Perception helps researchers interested in exploring
biological motor control from a physics or alternative viewpoint perspective. The book …

Previous reports show that the forces produced by the fingers of one hand drop
exponentially over time in the absence of visual feedback on the forces. We study the force …

A number of notions in the fields of motor control and kinesthetic perception have been used
without clear definitions. In this review, we consider definitions for efference copy, percept …

We applied the theory of synergies to analyze the processes that lead to unintentional
decline in isometric fingertip force when visual feedback of the produced force is removed …

The review covers a range of topics related to the role of the antagonist muscles in agonist–
antagonist pairs within the theory of the neural control of movements with spatial referent …

We combined the theory of neural control of movement with referent coordinates and the
uncontrolled manifold hypothesis to investigate multifinger coordination. We tested …

The authors explored the phenomenon of unintentional changes in the equilibrium state of a
multijoint effector produced by transient changes in the external force. The subjects …

We investigated stability of action by a multifinger system with three methods: analysis of
intertrial variance, application of transient perturbations, and analysis of the system's motion …
