Force direction and physical load in dynamic pushing and pulling.
In pushing and pulling wheeled carts, the direction of force exertion may, beside the force magnitude, considerably affect musculoskeletal loading. This paper describes how force direction changes as handle height and force level change, and the effects this has on the loads on the shoulder and low back. Eight subjects pushed against or pulled on a stationary bar or movable cart at various hand...
متن کاملThe Effects of Direction of Exertion, Path, and Load Placement in Nursing Cart Pushing and Pulling Tasks: An Electromyographical Study
The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of direction of exertion (DOE) (pushing, pulling), path (walking in a straight line, turning left, walking uphill), and load placement (LP) (the 18 blocks were indicated by X, Y and Z axis; there were 3 levels on the X axis, 2 levels on the Y axis, and 3 levels on the Z axis) on muscle activity and ratings of perceived exertion in nursing car...
متن کاملPushing and Pulling in Prokaryotic DNA Segregation
In prokaryotes, DNA can be segregated by three different types of cytoskeletal filaments. The best-understood type of partitioning (par) locus encodes an actin homolog called ParM, which forms dynamically unstable filaments that push plasmids apart in a process reminiscent of mitosis. However, the most common type of par locus, which is present on many plasmids and most bacterial chromosomes, e...
متن کاملSpindle Positioning: Actin Mediates Pushing and Pulling
To divide asymmetrically, the mitotic spindle is moved from the cell center to the cortex, a process that requires astral microtubules and the microtubule-based motor dynein. New work examining spindle positioning in large oocytes shows that in these cells actin and actin polymerization plays a key role.
متن کاملPulling, Pushing, and Grouping for Image Segmentation
This paper presents a novel computational visual grouping method, termed pulling, pushing and grouping, or PPG for short. Visual grouping is formulated as a functional optimisation process. Our computational function has three terms, the first pulls similar visual cues together, the second pushes different visual cues apart, and the third groups spatially adjacent visual cues without regarding ...
