The characteristics of the breaststroke pullout in elite swimming
Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2022 Since the rule change permitting the inclusion of one dolphin kick during the underwater breaststroke pullout phase following a swim start or turn, there has been an emergence of several different pullout techniques adopted by elite swimmers. The aim of this study was to characterize the underwater breaststroke pullout technique trends and to assess ...

A novel approach to characterize the direct shear pullout behavior of single hooked steel fibers
, 2021 Fibers crossing sliding crack planes have a positive influence on capacity because they can transfer shear load as dowels. Such behavior was evidenced by several researches that investigated the direct shear performance of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Arthroscopic Repair of Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear: Transtibial Fixation With 2 Lasso-Loop Sutures and 1 Samsung Medical Center Sliding Knot for Tensioning Secured by a Tibial Button. [PDF]
Arthrosc TechAbstract Medial meniscus posterior root tears disrupt the circumferential load‐transmission function of the meniscus and negatively affect knee biomechanics. This technical note describes a reliable and reproducible arthroscopic repair technique using 2 lasso‐loop sutures and 1 Samsung Medical Center sliding knot through a single transtibial tunnel ...

Multimodal Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.
