Effects of sport on static balance in athletes with visual impairments.

Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness, 2019
BACKGROUND Proper balance is crucial for postural control and physical activity performance. Issues related to balance as well as effects of various factors on balance are in the centre of attention of specialists in a number of fields including sport ...

Static balance and developmental coordination disorder

Human Movement Science, 2003
The development of static balance is a basic characteristic of normal motor development. Most of the developmental motor tests include a measure of static balance. Children with a developmental coordination disorder (DCD) often fail this item. Twenty-four children at risk for DCD with balance problems (DCD-BP) and 24 matched control children in the age

Implementing a structured exercise program for persistent concussion symptoms: a pilot study on the effects on salivary brain-derived neurotrophic factor, cognition, static balance, and symptom scores

Brain Injury, 2018
Primary objective: Persistent concussion symptoms (PCS) affect 10–30% of individuals after sports-related concussion. This study evaluated the effect of exercise-based rehabilitation on symptom scores, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cognitive ...

The static balancing of the industrial robot arms

Mechanism and Machine Theory, 2000
The paper presents some new constructional solutions for the balancing of the weight forces of the robot arms, using the elastic forces of the helical springs. The balancing is exactly realised in all points of work field by using the elastic system which contains the high pair mechanisms. For the performance study of the static balancing mechanisms, a

Research of the Static Balance for Spherical Rotor

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2007
For spherical rotor of gyroscope and some other high speed rotor, static balance is important. The paper introduces a static balance method for spherical rotor: the position of the spherical rotor is fixed by the use of the special clamp apparatus, and then determines the unbalance mass using the electronic balance.

The Effect of Single-Leg Stance on Dancer and Control Group Static Balance

International Journal of Exercise Science, 2016
The purpose of this study was to compare kinetic differences of static balance between female dancers (D) with at least seven years of dance experience and female non-dancers (ND) who were typical college students.

Static balancer for the rectilinear motion

2013 13th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS 2013), 2013
This paper presents static balancers for a rectilinear motion using springs. A slider-crank mechanism is adopted as a base mechanism and is considered as a two-link and two-dof (degree of freedom) manipulator with an external load at the end-effector. The design of a gravity compensator is considered as mapping unit spring balancers to the slider-crank

Calibration Algorithm of a Spring Static Balancer [PDF]

International Journal of Precision Engineering and Manufacturing, 2018
This paper proposes a calibration algorithm of a spring static balancer to overcome uncertainties of link parameters or spring constants. The location of the spring attachment is adjusted in this paper considering unbalancing torques. Various algorithms are suggested to determine the location of the spring attachment: 1) an estimation algorithm for ...

Static and dynamic balances of patients with acromegaly and impact of exercise on balance

Pituitary, 2019
Patients with acromegaly may have balance abnormalities due to changes in body composition. We aim to compare static and dynamic balances in patients with acromegaly and healthy volunteers, and to evaluate the effects of exercise on balance in patients with acromegaly.This prospective study included 25 patients with acromegaly followed at endocrinology
