Specific characteristics of speed skating

open access: yesMedicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1987
Fourteen well-trained speed skaters performed all-out exercise tests during ice speed skating, low walking (walking-like movement in skating position), and dry skating (side to side deep sitting push-offs). These dry land training activities, widely used by speed skaters during the summer period, are compared to speed skating in relation to the concept

Two-speed cell specification [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2006
Neuron subtypes are specified through diversity: each subtype gets its own transcription factor. But in the lateral glia of Drosophila, specification of all glial cell types is controlled by a single fate-determining gene called Glide/Gcm (gcm). How can just one gene make many glial cell types?

Flow in a Low Specific Speed Centrifugal Pump Using PIV

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
The interflow plays important roles in centrifugal pump design. In order to study the effect of rotation and z -axis on internal flow, two-dimensional particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements have been performed to measure the steady velocity field ...

Performance of Very Low Specific Speed Centrifugal Pumps with Circular Casing

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2007
Efficiency of a centrifugal pump is known to drop rapidly with a decrease of specific speed ns in the range of ns ≤ 100 [m,m3/min,min-1]. However, below ns = 60, the pump efficiency is not yet clear, and the spiral angle of a volute casing becomes too

Validity of a squash-specific test of change-of-direction speed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose: We examined the validity and reproducibility of a squash-specific test designed to assess change-of-direction speed. Methods: 10 male squash and 10 male association-football and rugby-union players completed the Illinois agility run (IAR) and a ...

Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia Mediates the Relation Between “Specific Math Anxiety” and Arithmetic Speed

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
There is a growing consensus that math anxiety highly correlates with trait anxiety and that the emotional component elicited by math anxiety affects math performance. Yet few studies have examined the impact of “specific math anxiety” (high math anxiety
