The purposes of this study were to compare the effects of two preload settings (0 N, 75 N) and two ranges of motion (5-90 degrees ROM, 25-70 degrees ROM) on torque output of the knee musculature. Twenty females were randomly assessed for isokinetic concentric (CON) and eccentric (ECC) torque of the knee extensor (EXT) and flexor (FLEX) musculature at a velocity of 1.62 rads.s-1. Two four-way AN...

The effect of Ag doping on the electronic structure of a stable thiolate-protected Au(25) cluster (Au(25)(SR)(18)) was studied by measuring the optical spectra of Au(25-n)Ag(n)(SC(12)H(25))(18) (n = 0-11) and the results reveal that the electronic structure of Au(25)(SC(12)H(25))(18) is sensitive to Ag doping and is continuously modulated by incorporation of Ag atoms.

For n ≤ 27 we present exact values for the maximum number h(n) of halving lines and eh(n) of halving pseudolines, determined by n points in the plane. For this range of values of n we also present exact values of the rectilinear cr(n) and the pseudolinear e cr(n) crossing number of the complete graph Kn. eh(n) and e cr(n) are new for n ∈ {14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27}, h(n) is new for...

nitrogen is one of the most limiting nutrients for cereal production in many parts of iran. the effects of crop residue incorporation [0 (control), 25 and 50% of wheat (triticum aestivum l.)] and nitrogen (n) levels (0, 150, and 300 kg ha-1) on corn (zea mays l.) grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency were investigated at agricultural research station, shiraz university, shiraz, iran for two y...
