The effects of ball impact position on shoulder muscle activation during spiking in male volleyball players

JSES International, 2020
Background: The ball impact position during spiking in volleyball may influence the pattern of activation of shoulder girdle muscles and, therefore, could be a significant risk factor for shoulder injury. Methods: Activation of 10 muscles in the dominant

Direct Formation of Structural Components Using a Martian Soil Simulant. [PDF]

, 2017
Martian habitats are ideally constructed using only locally available soils; extant attempts to process structural materials on Mars, however, generally require additives or calcination.

Acoustic Measures Capture Speech Dysfunction in Spinocerebellar Ataxia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are hereditary cerebellar degenerative disorders with a common feature of dysarthria, involving impaired phonatory and articulatory control of speech, thereby affecting social communication. In this study, we investigated whether acoustic measures could objectively measure speech dysfunction and identify

Impact of Lateral Pipe Curtains on Land Subsidence in PBA Metro Station

Chengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
[Objective] Shallow-buried metro stations constructed by PBA (pile-beam-arch) method are prone to significant strata settlement. Though lateral pipe curtains are convenient for construction, the optimization of their parameters for controlling land ...

A double-blinded randomised controlled trial exploring the effect of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation and uni-lateral robot therapy for the impaired upper limb in sub-acute and chronic stroke [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND:Neurorehabilitation technologies such as robot therapy (RT) and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) can promote upper limb (UL) motor recovery after stroke.

DYNAMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS METHOD FOR THE PEAK VALUE STAGE OF CONCRETE-FILLED STEEL TUBE BEAMS UNDER LATERAL IMPACT

, 2019
This paper proposes a dynamic response analysis method of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) beams at the peak value stage under lateral impact load. Targeted calculation of the peak value stage, finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out to determine ...

Association of Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry With Ambulatory Ability After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ambulatory ability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important to patients. We tested whether asymmetry between ipsi‐ and contra‐lesional corticospinal tracts (CSTs) assessed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is associated with post‐ICH ambulation.

Refractory Status Epilepticus Treated With Bilateral Pulvinar Deep Brain Stimulation—A Case Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) arises without an identifiable cause or prior epilepsy history, with a 16%–27% mortality rate and significant long‐term neurological sequelae. Neuromodulation such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the anterior and centromedian thalamic nuclei has shown promise when the traditional ...

Neutral-cluster implantation in polymers by computer experiments

, 2013
In this work we perform atomistic model potential molecular dynamics simulations by means of state-of-the art force-fields to study the implantation of a single Au nanocluster on a Polydimethylsiloxane substrate. All the simulations have ben performed on
