The two R codes are related to the feasible balance region calculations for Figures 2, 3, and 4 in the paper.
The MATLAB codes are related to the simulations of the recoverable initial quasi-static states, the results of which are shown in Figure 5 of the paper.

Investigating minimum human reaction times is often confounded by the motivation, training, and state of arousal of the subjects. We used the reaction times of athletes competing in the shorter sprint events in the Athletics competitions in recent Olympics (2004-2016) to determine minimum human reaction times because there's little question as to their motivation, training, or state of arousal.
The reaction times of sprinters however are only available on the IAAF web page for each individual heat, in each event, at each Olympic. Therefore we compiled all these data into two separate excel sheets which can be used for further analyses.
