A Special Laboratory Method to Prepare Colored Ceramic Glazes Without Lead, Using a traditional Glazing Technique

In this research, an ancient Iranian ceramic technology, which was published previously for the first time, has been used to produce various colored ceramic glazes.  The color of such ancient glazes was always blue and the suitable body for that is unique due to high quartz content. There is no report of other color productions in productive workshop and scientific publications. The basic purp...

Optimal technique for maximal forward rotating vaults in men's gymnastics.

In vaulting a gymnast must generate sufficient linear and angular momentum during the approach and table contact to complete the rotational requirements in the post-flight phase. This study investigated the optimization of table touchdown conditions and table contact technique for the maximization of rotation potential for forwards rotating vaults. A planar seven-segment torque-driven computer ...

Decision-making related to manual therapy interventions has traditionally been based on biomechanical theoretical constructs. Most approaches generally advocate that the practitioner should accurately identify a segmental dysfunction based on the assessment of intersegmental motion or alignment, towards which a specific manual therapy intervention is then directed to ameliorate the underlying d...
