1 This study assesses the safety effectiveness of widening shoulder widths by developing crash 2 modification factors (CMFs) and crash modification functions (CMFunctions). This study first 3 evaluates the CMFs for widening shoulder widths on rural multilane roadways using the 4 observational before-after with the empirical Bayes (EB) method to check the overall safety effects. 5 Secondly, the ...

The objective of this work was to estimate genetic parameters and evaluate trends over 26 years for morphometric traits in Mangalarga Marchador horses. Twelve were evaluated (withers croup heights; length head, body, shoulder, croup, neck, back, loins; width head cannon bone thorax perimeters). These 38,341 animals born between 1987 2012 with a relationship matrix 77,719 animals. Gibbs sampler ...

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...

Skin and leather characteristics of hair-type goats were studied in relation to their sex and age, using 100 randomly-selected skin from goats reared in east west Iran. Mean weights of skin and leather were 859.2±35.2 and 357.4±16.2 g, and the length and width of leather ranged from 60 to 121 and 41 to 87 cm, respectively. Age had a significant effect on the weight and area of skin and leather....

TH E R E are four factors which are generally accepted as governing the purchase of lamb and mutton. The first and perhaps the most important is " f o rm. " The best formed lambs have good width in proportion to length with smooth, compact, even outlines. This insures a thick loin, with well meated ribs, a ful l thick middle from shoulder to leg, with evenly covered shoulders. The legs are full...

In this article we propose the novel approach to measure anthropometrical features such as height, width of shoulder, circumference of the chest, hip and waist. The sub-pixel processing and convex hull technique are used to efficiently measure the features from 2d image. The SVM technique is used to classify men and women based on measured features. The results of real data processing are prese...

In this paper we present a simulation study of water-like anomalies in core-softened system introduced in our previous papers. We investigate the anomalous regions for a system with the same functional form of the potential but with different parameters and show that the order of the region of anomalous diffusion and the region of density anomaly is inverted with increasing the width of the rep...

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to analyze the joint space width of the humeral head and glenoid fossa during traction under 2 grade conditions (grade 2/grade 3). [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 20 healthy male adults who had not experienced any shoulder injury. Three radiographs were obtained with the subjects in the supine position (resting, grades 2 and 3). The glenohumeral join...
