Conceptual design and multidisciplinary optimisation of power device for solar powered aircraft [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Solar-powered aircraft is propelled by a photovoltaic cell that converts solar energy into electrical energy. The extra energy is stored in a rechargeable battery for later use when solar energy is not available. The performance of solar-powered aircraft

Low energy availability in female athletes: From the lab to the field

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, 2021
ABSTRACTDecades of laboratory research have shown impairments to several body systems after only 4–5 days of strictly controlled consistent low energy availability (LEA); where energy availability (EA) = Energy Intake (EI) − Exercise Energy Expenditure (EEE)/Fat‐Free Mass.

Measurement of Energy Intake Using the Principle of Energy Balance Overcomes a Critical Limitation in the Assessment of Energy Availability

open access: yesSports Medicine - Open, 2023
Prolonged low energy availability, which is the underpinning aetiology of the Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport and the Female and Male Athlete Triad frameworks, can have unfavourable impacts on both health and performance in athletes.

Energy Expenditure, Availability, and Dietary Intake Assessment in Competitive Female Dragon Boat Athletes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dragon boat racing requires high physical activity levels during competition and training. The female athletic triad refers to a number of negative health consequences (e.g., amenorrhoea, low bone mineral density, and low energy availability) that may ...

Unexpected patterns of plastic energy allocation in stochastic environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
When environmental conditions vary stochastically, individuals accrue fitness benefits by exhibiting phenotypic plasticity. Such benefits may be counterbalanced by costs of plasticity that increase with the exhibited degree of plasticity.

Low energy availability and low body fat of female gymnasts before an international competition [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, 2014
AbstractThe purpose of the present study was to evaluate dietary intake and body composition of elite rhythmic gymnastics (RG) athletes prior to a competition event. Sixty‐seven rhythmic gymnasts (18.7 ± 2.9 years old) of high performance level, with 36.6 ± 7.6 h of training/week were evaluated in order to collect training and competition data, medical

Study on the correlation between energy availability and subclinical menstrual disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundThere are few studies on the correlation between energy availability (EA) and subclinical menstrual disorders (SMD) in female athletes. This study aims to explore the differences in EA between female athletes with eumenorrhea and those with SMD,

New perspectives in functional hypogonadotropic hypogonadism: beyond late onset hypogonadism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Functional hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (FHH) is an increasingly frequent condition, whose pathological mechanisms are not yet fully clarified. The concept of FHH has now completely replaced that of late onset hypogonadism, that only concerned the ...

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.
