Establishing a reproducible protocol for measuring index active extension strength

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2016
The goal of this study was to establish a reproducible protocol to measure active extension strength in the index finger. The secondary objectives consisted in correlating the independent or associated index extension strength to the other fingers force of contraction of the extensor indicis propius with hand dominance. The population studied consisted

Characterization and Strength Activity Index of Eggshell Powder and Silica Fume as Partial Cement Replacement

Key Engineering Materials, 2023
The rapid construction activity in Malaysia has increased the demand of concrete. One of the key ingredients in concrete is cement. The production of cement emits carbon dioxide (CO2) which is harmful to the environment. To overcome this issue, waste materials such as eggshell powder (ESP) and silica fume (SF) are incorporated in concrete as partial ...

Validating variation in radio-signal strength as an index of aquatic fauna activity

Australian Journal of Zoology, 2010
Studying biological rhythms of activity and determining the external factors that influence behaviour of animals can be challenging in many aquatic habitats. We investigated the validity of using variations in radio-signal strength to quantify changes in activity of radio-tagged aquatic fauna on a small spatial scale under controlled conditions in the ...

Pozzolanic reactivity and strength activity index of mortar containing palm oil clinker pretreated with hydrochloric acid

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2020
Palm oil clinker powder (POCP) is an agro waste material that is often overlooked due to its low pozzolanic reactivity and contaminated with impurities and organic carbon. Therefore this study was proposed to enhance the pozzolanic reactivity of palm oil clinker powder through a chemical pre-treatment process.

Sensitivity to ionic strength of MgCa-enhanced ATPase activity as an index of myofibrillar ageing in beef

Meat Science, 1984
Modifications of MgCa-enhanced ATPase activity and its sensitivity to ionic strength were studied during the conditioning of beef Longissimus dorsi muscle, together with the changes in the mechanical properties of the myofibrillar structure assessed instrumentally by a compressive test.

Comparison of ASTM C311 Strength Activity Index Testing versus Testing Based on Constant Volumetric Proportions

Journal of ASTM International, 2011
Abstract Currently, the (pozzolanic) strength activity indices of fly ashes and natural pozzolans are typically evaluated using the procedures outlined in ASTM C311 [“Standard Test Methods for Sampling and Testing Fly Ash or Natural Pozzolans for Use in Portland-Cement Concrete,” Annual Book of ASTM Standards, ASTM International, West ...

Change of Quadriceps Muscular strength and Muscle Activity According to Knee Extension Angle and body Mass Index

Medico-Legal Update, 2019
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on muscle strength and activity according to the knee angle. Muscle activity of vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), and rectus femoris (RF) was measured for 48 healthy adults. Isokinetic equipment was used to measure the isometric strength of the knee extensors at

Strength, Physical Activity, and Body Mass Index: Relationship to Performance‐Based Measures and Activities of Daily Living Among Older Japanese Women in Hawaii

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1998
OBJECTIVES: Remaining strong, lean, and physically active may contribute to successful aging, both by maintaining function and by enabling more independent living. The study objective was to investigate this hypothesis among a long‐lived population of older Japanese women.
