Desigualdade estrutural discreta de membros inferiores é suficiente para causar alteração cinética na marcha de corredores? Is structural and mild leg length discrepancy enough to cause a kinetic change in runners' gait?

open access: yesActa Ortopédica Brasileira, 2008
Desigualdade de membros inferiores (DMI) está presente em cerca de 70% da população geral, podendo ser do tipo estrutural onde existe diferença no comprimento de estruturas ósseas, ou funcional, como resultado de alterações mecânicas dos membros ...

Closed‐form solutions for dynamic punching shear assessment in flat slabs subjected to sudden column removal

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Simplified closed‐form equations are commonly used in structural design to prevent punching shear failures of concrete flat slabs supported on columns in permanent and transient situations, whereas more advanced methods are generally used in verifications at accidental design situations due to the lack of suitable equivalent approaches ...

Mortal relationality: waria family care and the ethics of dying in Bali Relationnalité mortelle : soins familiaux des waria et éthique des mourants à Bali

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Can a good death occur for those who balance on the edges of grievability? In Bali, where death marks a transition within the cycles of reincarnation, a good death depends on the mortuary care performed by intimate others – care that may be foreclosed to those whose lives are shaped by stigma.

Leg Length Inequality [PDF]

open access: yesUpsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 1988
Within a prospective study of back function and pain before and after basic military training, the leg length inequality (LLI) was assessed, in steps of less than 0.5 cm. (equal), 0.5-1.5 cm, 1.6-2.5 cm, 2.6-3.5 cm and more than 3.5 cm. Around six hundred young men were examined three times over a period of four years. LLI of 0.5-1.5 cm was found in 32%

Political Recruitment and Pregnancy Resources: Anti‐Abortion Feminists Come to Campus, United States, 1990s

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines Feminists for Life's (FFL) rhetoric and activism on US college campuses in the 1990s as a case study into the complexities of organizing against abortion in a historical context whereby few supports existed for young pregnant women.

Working‐Class Muscles? Co‐Operative Gyms in Interwar Britain

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract The Health & Strength League's network of co‐operative gymnasiums constituted one of interwar Britain's most significant yet overlooked physical culture institutions, affiliating over 800 gyms across Britain and Ireland by 1939. Drawing on Health & Strength magazine's editorial content and reader contributions, this article argues that these ...

Factors Affecting Surgical Outcomes Following Rotationplasty in Paediatric Sarcoma: A Literature Review

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Rotationplasty is a durable limb‐salvage option for paediatric lower‐limb sarcoma. Across 58 studies and 1,217 patients, long‐term functional, psychosocial, and quality‐of‐life outcomes were favourable, often surpassing amputation and endoprosthetic reconstruction.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Optimization Of Thermo-Electric Coolers Using Hybrid Genetic Algorithm And Simulated Annealing

open access: yesArchives of Control Sciences, 2014
Thermo-electric Coolers (TECs) nowadays are applied in a wide range of thermal energy systems. This is due to their superior features where no refrigerant and dynamic parts are needed.

Tangent Blow‐Ups for Processing Non‐Manifold Geometry

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Many geometry processing pipelines implicitly assume their input data is a manifold, or is sampled from one, with a unique tangent plane at every point. Geometric data, however, routinely contains sharp features like edges, corners, self‐intersections, branching junctions, and other singularities, rendering standard methods ill‐defined at ...
