Biodegradable thermoplastics stay strong

Outcomes of Stay Strong, Stay Healthy in community settings.

UNLABELLED Loss of muscle strength, flexibility, and balance are strong predictors of falls in the elderly. OBJECTIVES The goal of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of a 10-week, strength-based exercise program delivered by Extension professionals. METHODS Matched pair t tests were used to compare differences in five measures of fitness collected from 808 participants (mean...

Effectiveness of Advanced Stay Strong, Stay Healthy in Community Settings

The goal of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of the 10-week, University of Missouri (MU) Extension strength training program Advanced Stay Strong, Stay Healthy (ASSSH). It was hypothesized that the program can improve strength, balance, agility, and flexibility-all physical measures of falling among seniors. Matched pair t tests were used to compare differences in five physica...

Stay Strong, Stay Safe – Enhancing Reliability of a Secure Operating System

Current research in operating systems focuses either on security or on reliability. However, modern embedded platforms demand solutions that suit both kinds of requirements. In this paper, we present L4ReAnimator, a framework that allows restarting crashed applications and reestablishing lost communication channels on top of the Fiasco.OC microkernel. It therefore effectively combines the alrea...

Photochemical Copper Coating on 3D Printed Thermoplastics

3D printing using thermoplastics has become very popular in recent years, however, it is challenging to provide a metal coating on 3D objects without using specialized and expensive tools. Herein, a novel acrylic paint containing malachite for coating on 3D printed objects is introduced, which can be transformed to copper via one-step laser treatment. The malachite containing pigment can be use...
