The knee abduction moment (KM-Y) is a biomechanical risk factor for ACL injury, yet multi-planar loads are known to strain the ACL. The KM-Y alone is often used for injury screening and prediction. This study examined if the KM-Y alone would identify athletes with high knee moments. Forty five female participants performed a bilateral drop jump and single leg drop jump with each leg and their 3...

The problem of calculating the energy release rate for crack growth in an arbitrary composite in the presence of residual stresses is considered. First, a general expression is given for arbitrary, mixed traction and displacement boundary conditions. This general result is then applied to a series of specific problems including statistically homogeneous composites under traction or displacement...

currently cancer is considered as one of the main factors of mortality globally. many chemicals in our environment can cause genetic mutations and are potentially responsible for millions of cancer-related deaths. nowadays the scientists are looking for food materials which can potenthially prevent the cancer occurrence. the purpose of this research is to examine antimutagenicity and anticancer...

among the 30 strains of moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from the salty effluents of textile industries around qom city in central iran, a gram-negative rod shape bacterium designated as strain ip8 showed a remarkable ability in decolorizing of azo dyes over wide ranges of ph (7-11) and temperature (25-45 ºc), in presence of nacl and na2so4 (0.5-1.5 m) under anaerobic and aerobic conditi...

in order to investigate the effects of seed inoculation with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on germination components and seedling growth of corn (zea mays l.), a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the seed technology laboratory of mohaghegh ardabili university, iran, during 2008. studied factors were: corn cultiv...

This letter reports on a study of the impact of 110 uniaxial strain on the characteristics of InGaAs high electron mobility transistors HEMT by bending GaAs chips up to a strain level of 0.4%. Systematic changes in the threshold voltage and intrinsic transconductance were observed. These changes can be well predicted by Schrödinger–Poisson simulations of the one-dimensional electrostatics of th...

This paper reports on a study of the impact of <110> uniaxial strain on the characteristics of InGaAs high electron mobility transitors (HEMT) by bending GaAs chips up to a strain level of 0.4%. Systematic changes in the threshold voltage and intrinsic transconductance were observed. These changes can be well predicted by Schrödinger-Poisson simulations of the one-dimensional electrostatics of ...
