The Margin of Stability During a Single-Turn Pirouette in Female Amateur Dancers: A Pilot Study

Applied Sciences
Balance control in pirouettes has previously been characterized by constraint of the topple angle. However, there is a paucity of research using the margin of stability (MoS) as a dynamic measure of balance related to pirouettes.

Investigation of photon interaction parameters in Human Body Tissues using GAMOS, FLUKA, and XCOM Studies

Nuclear Analysis
This study aims to evaluate different photon interaction parameters of human body organs at nine photon energies (0.021 keV–1.25 MeV) using GAMOS and FLUKA Monte Carlo codes. The Mass attenuation coefficients, Mean Free Path, Half Value Layer, Tenth Value Layer, and Mass absorption coefficients of the breast, lung, kidney, pancreas, liver, eye lens ...

Photon and neutron shielding performance of boron phosphate glasses for diagnostic radiology facilities

Results in Physics, 2019
This study focuses on radiation shielding characteristics of Li2O, Al2O3 and ZnO-doped boron phosphate glasses containing PbO and Bi2O3. Mass attenuation coefficient (μ/ρ) values of the glasses have been calculated using MCNPX code at various photon ...

Ambulatory Estimation of XCoM using Pressure Insoles and IMUs

, 2018
Ambulatory gait assessment using minimal sensors has quite an impact for different applications requiring localised sensing. ForceShoes™ was developed as one such solution. It consists of two IMUs, and two 6DoF force and moment (F&M) sensors on each foot1. Additionally, an ultrasound system was added 2.

Z archiwum XCOM : jak pokonać kosmitów i zachować rozsądek

, 2016
XCOM: Enemy Unknown, a 2012 video game (actually a reboot of a game released nearly two decades earlier), presents players with a relatively stereotypical task - they must defeat cosmic invaders. It also proposes a clear, linearly-presented plot and an intriguing mechanism of concern for the individual soldiers who are fighting the ignoble aliens.
