The aim of the present study was to find a more optimal blade design for rowing performance than the Big Blade, which has been shown to be less than optimal for propulsion. As well as the Big Blade, a flat Big Blade, a flat rectangular blade, and a rectangular blade with the same curvature and projected area as the Big Blade were tested in a water flume to determine their fluid dynamic characte...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 4-weeks rehabilitation, electrotherapy and kinesiotherapy programs on range of motion shoulder pain in men with idiopathic frozen shoulder. methods & materials: this was a semi experimental study on 18 patient (means±sd age 56.4±6.7 year, height 175.1±5.3 cm, weight 73.1±7.5 kg, history patient 9.2±5.1 month) who referred to...

Mr. George H. Porter, Sargeon-in-Ordinary to the Queen in Ireland, deposed, in reply to the Coroner.?'By direction of the Coroner I made a post mortem examination of the remains at the Chief Secretary's Lodge yesterday, assisted by Mr. Hamilton, surgeon to the hospital, Mr. Ormsby, Mr. Myles, and Dr. Tweedy. I first examined the body of Mr. Burke, and found his clothes were removed. I found sev...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes of arthroscopic treatment for refractory rotator cuff calcific tendinitis of the shoulder. METHODS Subjects were 37 patients (35 women and 2 men; mean age, 47.8 years; age range 34-61 years) who had undergone arthroscopic treatment for calcific tendinitis of the shoulder. Despite sufficient nonsurgical tre...

Notalgia paresthetica is a chronic sensory neuropathy characterized by pruritus of the upper to middle back, typically below the left shoulder blade. Symptoms may include pain, hyperesthesia, paresthesia, and hyperpigmentation of the affected area. Although the etiologic process of this condition is poorly understood, recent correlations with degenerative spinal changes suggest that spinal nerv...

in this paper, the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon and the research history are described. then due to the complex and specific working conditions of a turbine blade, we have investigated the phenomenon on this subject. the fluid-structure interaction on a turbine blade model has been simulated by using structural and fluid flow section of ansys software. a model of turbine blade with ai...

The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between foot type and posture. Subjects were 49 elderly people from a Catholic Church in the Seoul area. 13 subjects were men, and 36 were women. Questionnaire was used to identify injuries, blood pressure, history and location of pain, wallet carrying habits for men (left or right side). Resting Calcanel Stance Position (RCSP) was used ...

We give a simple argument proving the lonely runner conjecture in the case where the speed of the runners forms a certain lacunary sequence. This improves an earlier result by Pandey, and is then used to derive that for each number of runners the lonely runner conjecture is true for a set of nonzero measure in a natural probability space.

An investigation was made on the relationship between music practice and musculo-skeletal disorders among piano students, with the main aim of developing health education programmes that would improve the performance and health of the students. The investigation covered three areas: (a) Analysis of study organization and main musculo-skeletal complaints achieved by a questionnaire distributed t...

In this research, a gas turbine blade cascade was investigated. Flow analysis around the blade was conducted using RSM and RNG.K-ε turbulence modeling and it is simulated by Fluent software. The results were considered for the cases as Mach number loss at the trailing edge of blade caused by vortexes that were generated at the end of blade. Effect of cooling flow through the trailing edge on th...
