Jumping performance in the highly aquatic frog, Xenopus tropicalis : sex-specific relationships between morphology and performance [PDF]
, 2014 Frogs are characterized by a morphology that has been suggested to be related to their unique jumping specialization. Yet, the functional demands associated with jumping and swimming may not be that different as suggested by studies with semi-aquatic ...

Science, 2005 Flat gold nanostructures on inert substrates like glass or graphite were illuminated by single intensive laser pulses with fluences above the gold melting threshold. The liquid structures produced in this way are far from their equilibrium shape, and a dewetting process sets in.

The jumping champion conjecture [PDF]
, 2012 An integer $d$ is called a jumping champion for a given $x$ if $d$ is the most common gap between consecutive primes up to $x$. Occasionally several gaps are equally common. Hence, there can be more than one jumping champion for the same $x$.

MECHANICAL LOWER LIMB MUSCLE FUNCTION AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH PERFORMANCE IN ELITE TEAM GYMNASTS
Science of Gymnastics Journal, 2019 TeamGym (TG) differs from individual gymnastics as it is performed in teams including 6-12 participants competing in acrobatic performance in three disciplines: trampette jumping, tumbling track jumping, and floor exercises.

Review of the Insect-Inspired Robots: from Single to Multi-Modal Locomotion [PDF]
한국정밀공학회지, 2018 This paper introduces an entire development trend of the bio-inspired robots, details of the single locomotive robots, and multimodal robots. Unlike general robots that utilize rigid structures and complex control techniques, creatures have compliant and

Breast support garments are ineffective at reducing breast motion during an aqua aerobics jumping exercise [PDF]
, 2015 The buoyant forces of water during aquatic exercise may provide a form of ‘natural’ breast support and help to minimise breast motion and alleviate exercise induced breast pain. Six larger-breasted females performed standing vertical land and water-based

Cubic symmetroids and vector bundles on a quadric surface [PDF]
, 2012 We investigate the jumping conics of stable vector bundles $\Ee$ of rank 2 on a smooth quadric surface $Q$ with the Chern classes $c_1=\Oo_Q(-1,-1)$ and $c_2=4$ with respect to the ample line bundle $\Oo_Q(1,1)$. We describe the set of jumping conics of $

Royal Society Open Science, 2021 We investigate theoretically the ballistic motion of small legged insects and legless larvae after a jump. Notwithstanding their completely different morphologies and jumping strategies, some legged and legless animals have convergently evolved to jump ...
