a fundamental assumption in prosthetic dentistry is that the axis-orbital plane will usually be parallel to the horizontal reference plane. most articulator systems have incorporated this concept into their designs and use orbitale as the anterior reference point for transferring the vertical position of the maxilla to the articulator. clinical observations of cantonese patients suggest that in...

The hind legs of Issus (Hemiptera, Issidae) move in the same plane underneath the body, an arrangement that means they must also move synchronously to power jumping. Moreover, they move so quickly that energy must be stored before a jump and then released suddenly. High speed imaging and analysis of the mechanics of the proximal joints of the hind legs show that mechanical mechanisms ensure bot...

Roll forming process is used for manufacturing sheet metal parts by successive bending and creating the final shape with gradual deformation. In this article, deformation of a pre-punched sheet due to the roll forming process was studied. Two main defects in the roll forming process are ovality of holes and bow defect. The ovality of the hole is influenced by the process parameters including sh...

This thesis addresses sound production in bowed-string instruments from two perspectives: the physics of the bowed string, and bow control in performance. Violin performance is characterized by an intimate connection between the player and the instrument, allowing for a continuous control of the sound via the main bowing parameters (bow velocity, bow force and bowbridge distance), but imposing ...

The dynamics of the frictional force between the bow hair and the string causes the bow to oscillate in its longitudinal direction during the bow stroke. Under certain conditions, such oscillations in the bow enhanced by the bow resonances can be observed in the spectrum of the frictional force between bow and string, and also in the velocity spectrum at the bridge. The present study discusses ...

Bow-tie antenna is one of wideband antennas [1]. It has been reported that the bow-tie antenna has been miniaturized by adding folded elements [2]. In this paper, it is shown that bending the bow-tie antenna with folded elements is effective method for miniaturization. The bent bow-tie antenna with folded elements can be more miniaturized than conventional bow-tie antenna with folded elements, ...

Stringed instrument bowing is a complex coordinative motor skill acquired though years of intense practice. We apply a novel "freezing" analysis to investigate how movement at different joints contributes to bow transport (movement amplitude), stabilization of bow parameters (angle, velocity) during bow movements, and quick reversals of bow direction (acceleration amplitude). Participants were ...
