This article reviews the current techniques of surface electromyography (SEMG) assessment. Discussed are static, dynamic, and combination assessment techniques and the rational for their use.

In this research, the thermodynamic investigation of the tri-generation system is performed by the first and second law of Thermodynamics. The trigeneration system under study consists of three subsystems including the solar subsystem, Kalina subsystem and lithium bromide-water absorption chiller subsystem. The proposed system generates power, cooling and hot water using solar energy. The syste...

A triangular model base on an investigation which has done by Sinha et al. has been developed for evaluating embedded crack localization in beam-column structures. In the assessment of this member’s behavior, the effects of displacement slope are necessary. In order to propose a crack localization method for embedded crack, an efficient static data based indicator is proposed for this crack in ...

agricultural crops and food materials exert frictional forces on agricultural machinery elements and on storage walls during their harvest, transportation, processing and storage. coefficient of friction is an important parameter to be predetermined in designing equipments and evaluating processes. an assessment of the coefficient of friction for agricultural materials is usually done through s...

BACKGROUND The aim of our study was an objective integrated assessment of the functional outcomes of reduction mammaplasty. METHODS The study involved 17 women undergoing reduction mammaplasty from March 2009 to June 2011. Each patient was assessed before surgery and 2 months postoperatively with the original association of 4 subjective and objective assessment methods: a physiatric clinical ...
