Comparing swimsuits in 3D.
In competitive swimming, suits have become more important. These suits influence friction, pressure and wave drag. Friction drag is related to the surface properties whereas both pressure and wave drag are greatly influenced by body shape. To find a relationship between the body shape and the drag, the anthropometry of several world class female swimmers wearing different suits was accurately d...
متن کاملValidation of Contract Decomposition by Testing
In this cand.scient. thesis we propose a strategy for testing validity of decomposition of contract oriented specifications. The strategy is based on Abadi and Lamport’s Composition Theorem for the Temporal Logic of Actions and test case generation from executable specifications. A composition rule, inspired by the Compositon Theorem, is formulated in a semantics based on timed streams. A subse...
متن کاملTesting of elastomeric liners used in limb prosthetics: classification of 15 products by mechanical performance.
The mechanical properties of 15 elastomeric liner products used in limb prosthetics were evaluated under compressive, frictional, shear, and tensile loading conditions. All testing was conducted at load levels comparable to interface stress measurements reported on transtibial amputee subjects. For each test configuration, materials were classified into four groups based on the shapes of their ...
متن کاملDiagnostic performance and validation of autoantibody testing in myositis by a commercial line blot assay.
OBJECTIVE Serological testing for myositis-specific or associated autoantibodies [myositis-specific antibody (MSA) and myositis-associated antibody (MAA)] is useful for the diagnosis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs). However, available assays are neither standardized nor validated. The objective is to evaluate the accuracy of a commercial line blot assay for myositis diagnosis. ME...
متن کاملValidation of vibration testing for the assessment of the mechanical properties of human lumbar motion segments.
Experimental modal analysis is a non-destructive measurement technique, which applies low forces and small deformations to assess the integrity of a structure. It is therefore a promising method to study the mechanical properties of the spine in vivo. Previously, modal parameters successfully revealed artificially induced spinal injuries. The question remains however, whether experimental modal...
