Intrarater and Inter-rater Reliability of Pinch Dynamometer for Toe Grip Strength: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Reduced Toe Grip Strength (TGS) is associated with an increased risk of knee pain. In India, toe grip is rarely examined and examination of TGS lacks quantifiable values.

Exercises using a touchscreen tablet application improved functional ability more than an exercise program prescribed on paper in people after surgical carpal tunnel release: a randomised trial [PDF]
Question: In people who have undergone surgical carpal tunnel release, do sensorimotor-based exercises performed on the touchscreen of a tablet device improve outcomes more than a conventional home exercise program prescribed on paper? Design: Randomised,

A conjecture on the infrared structure of the vacuum Schrodinger wave functional of QCD [PDF]
The Schrodinger wave functional for the d=3+1 SU(N) vacuum is a partition function constructed in d=4; the exponent 2S in the square of the wave functional plays the role of a d=3 Euclidean action.

Geometry‐driven thermal behavior in wire‐arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) influences microstructural evolution during nonequilibrium solidification of a chemically complex Fe–Cr–Nb–W–Mo–C nanocomposite system. By comparing different deposits configurations, distinct entropy–cooling rate correlations, segregation, and carbide evolution are revealed ...

Role of the tip vortex in the force generation of low-aspect-ratio normal flat plates [PDF]
We investigate experimentally the force generated by the unsteady vortex formation of low-aspect-ratio normal flat plates with one end free. The objective of this study is to determine the role of the free end, or tip, vortex.
