the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a selected motor program (as a motor experience) on manipulative skills in 4-6-year-old boys. 40 subjects were selected randomly using a personal information questionnaire. after the pretest, the ulrich's test of gross motor development (2000) including fundamental motor skills, locomotors skills, manipulative skills and controllin...

induction motors are the most commonly used in the traction industries and electric vehicles, due to their low primary cost, low maintenance costs, and good performance. speed identification is needed for the induction motor drives. however, using of speed sensors in the induction motor drives is associated with problems such as, extra cost, reduced reliability, added mounting space, etc.. ther...

The switched reluctance motor is a simple and robust machine, which has found application over a wide power and speed ranges in different shapes and geometries. This paper introduces a new configuration for a two phase unidirectional switched reluctance motor/field assisted generator. The proposed novel motor/generator consists of two magnetically independent stator and rotor sets (layers), whe...

background tyrosinase is a copper-containing enzyme, which is widely distributed in microorganisms, animals and plants. it is also a key enzyme in melanin biosynthesis, which plays a crucial role in determining the color of mammalian skin and hair. in addition, unfavorable enzymatic browning of plant-derived foods by tyrosinase causes a decrease in nutritional quality and economic loss of food ...

abstract background and purpose: aging is associated with brain changes and reduction in motor skill acquisi­tion that can limit its functional capacity. one of the effective interventions is using transcranial direct current stimulation (tdcs). the aim of this systematic review was to assess the effect of tdcs on learning and motor skill in healthy older adults. materials and methods: a litera...

background: motor vehicle crashes (mvc) are considered to be the most common safety challenge, causing more than a million deaths worldwide annually. objectives: the current study was aimed at identifying the etiological role of human and vehicle safety factors in road crashes, and their effects on the severity of injury and fatality in the sistan and baluchistan province, south east iran. pati...

Objectives: Motor therapy plays a key role on the bilateral coordination skills and motor activities of children with Intellectual Disability (ID). The present research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of motor therapy on motor skills and bilateral coordination skills of students with ID.  Methods: This was a quasi-experimental research with pre-test and post-test and control group desig...

The Brushless DC (BLDC) motor is a simple robust machine which has found application over a wide power and speed of ranges in different shapes and geometry. This paper briefly reviews the fundamentals behind the motor and also the different types of BLDC motors with different geometries and then presents a new configuration for BLDC motor/generator, which does not use a permanent magnet in the ...

motor units (mus) reflect the function of the central nervous motor system. thus, the estimated mu number is a good option to investigate the functional movement disorder in the parkinson’s disease (pd). the purpose of this study was to compare the estimated mus number in the medial gastrocnemius (mg) muscle of the normal rats and those with the parkinsonism. the mg muscle of two age-matched gr...

objective the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and the most common risk factors of motor developmental delay in infants. materials & methods following ethical approval, a study was carried out on the prevalence and risk factors of infants with motor developmental delay. the first stage was conducted through a cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence of motor develo...
