Raw Acceleration from Wrist- and Hip-Worn Accelerometers Corresponds with Mechanical Loading in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesSensors, 2023
The purpose of this study was to investigate associations between peak magnitudes of raw acceleration (g) from wrist- and hip-worn accelerometers and ground reaction force (GRF) variables in a large sample of children and adolescents.

Theoretical backgrounds of durability analysis by normalized equivalent stress functionals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Generalized durability diagrams and their properties are considered for a material under a multiaxial loading given by an arbitrary function of time. Material strength and durability under such loading are described in terms of durability, safety factor ...

Dynamic and Residual Static Behavior of Axially Loaded RC Columns Subjected to Low-Elevation Impact Loading

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Columns can suffer heavy damage due to dynamic impact effects, which are ignored during their design. The impact effect could be a vehicle crash to columns of streetside buildings, parking garages or bridges.

A kinetic comparison of back-loading and head-loading in Xhosa women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this study was to compare the kinetic responses associated with ground reaction force measurements to both head-loading and back-loading in a group of Xhosa women. Altogether, 16 women were divided into two groups based on their experience

Scale effects on the response of composite structures under impact loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For several years, composite materials have taken a significant part in the realization of structures designed for transport (aeronautical, nautical, automotive. . .). In order to qualify the behavior of such structures, preliminary validation tests have

Comparison of the effect of preload and curvature of composite laminate under impact loading [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2016
In this paper, the effect of preload on impact response of composite laminates is considered. To this aim, three specimens were manufactured and tested under 4 different impact conditions: 1- A curved laminate without preload.

Shock Acceleration and Attenuation during Running with Minimalist and Maximalist Shoes: A Time- and Frequency-Domain Analysis of Tibial Acceleration

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Tibial shock attenuation is part of the mechanism that maintains human body stabilization during running. It is crucial to understand how shock characteristics transfer from the distal to proximal joint in the lower limb.
