Wheel profile is a very important factor that helps the steering performance of railway vehicle. However, during operation, wheel tends to vary inconsistently due frictional contact at wheel-rail interface. This paper focuses on problem wheelset and its alteration affects Signal-based indirect estimation technique using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) proposed establish relationship between dynami...

To verify the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and body fat in women. Evaluations were performed on 229 women with ages ranging between 50 and 84 years. Anthropometric assessment was performed and waist/hip ratio and conicity index values were obtained. The cardiorespiratory fitness was evaluated by the six minutes walk test and one pedometer was used to evaluate the speed, length...

The aim of the present work was the evaluation of measures of total body fat and distribution of adipose tissue, including the new conicity index, and their correlation with total body fat (in kg and %) estimated by means of the impedance method. Moreover, attention was paid to the bilateral differentiation of fat distribution. The basis for the analyses and comparisons was a group of 186 femal...

Central obesity is closely related to various metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM). Several studies examined the correlation between central parameters waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-height ratio (WtHR) with fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels. One of that still rarely used in Indonesia a conicity index (CI). This study analyzed CI, WC, WtHR FBG levels among 59 subjects aged ...

INTRODUCTION Abdominal fat mass is an important risk factor of inflammation in the general population as it is in haemodialysis (HD) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of adiposity using the conicity index (Ci) with nutritional-inflammatory markers and to analyse whether these factors were related with the clinical outcome in HD patients. METHODS A cross-sectio...
