The Influence of Maturity Offset, Strength, and Movement Competency on Motor Skill Performance in Adolescent Males

open access: yesSports, 2019
This study aimed to examine the extent to which maturity offset, strength, and movement competency influences motor skill performance in adolescent boys. One hundred and eight secondary school boys completed anthropometric and physical testing on two non-

Insect jumping springs [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2018
How do some insects jump so quickly? As anyone who has tried to catch a grasshopper or a planthopper knows, many insects can jump very rapidly. A planthopper can accelerate in less than 1 millisecond to a take-off velocity of 5 m s–1, requiring a power output (energy per given time) of tens of thousands of Watts per kilogram of muscle.

The Effect of Ground Type on the Jump Performance of Adults of the Locust Locusta migratoria manilensis: A Preliminary Study

open access: yesInsects, 2020
The jump performance of locusts depends on several physiological and environmental factors. Few studies have examined the effects of different ground types on the jump performance of locusts.

The Hydraulic Jump in Liquid Helium

open access: yes, 2005
We present the results of some experiments on the circular hydraulic jump in normal and superfluid liquid helium. The radius of the jump and the depth of the liquid outside the jump are measured through optical means.

Consistency Problems for Jump-Diffusion Models

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper consistency problems for multi-factor jump-diffusion models, where the jump parts follow multivariate point processes are examined. First the gap between jump-diffusion models and generalized Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) models is bridged.

Detecting jumps from Lévy jump diffusion processes☆ [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Financial Economics, 2008
Abstract Recent asset-pricing models incorporate jump risk through Levy processes in addition to diffusive risk. This paper studies how to detect stochastic arrivals of small and big Levy jumps with new nonparametric tests. The tests allow for robust analysis of their separate characteristics and facilitate better estimation of return dynamics ...

Pricing European Vulnerable Options with Jumps and Stochastic Default Obstacles Barrier under Regime Switching

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In this paper, we propose an enhanced model for pricing vulnerable options. Specifically, our model assumes that parameters such as interest rates, jump intensity, and asset value volatility are governed by an observable continuous-time finite-state ...
