Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare scapular kinematics during elevation phase of abduction, flexion, and scapular plane elevation phase between fifteen persons with shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) and thirteen persons without it. Methods: Values of scapular kinematics include scapular superior and lateral translations, upward rotation, external rotation, and posterior t...

We investigate the multi-Regge model in the kinematic region where the four momentum of one initial particle is large and spacelike. These kinematics occur in inelastic electron scattering through single virtual photon exchange. We predict a rapid fall off in the cross section as the virtual particle becomes more spacelike, contradicting present data. (Submitted to Phys . Rev. ) t Supported by ...

Abstract Many of the widely used models for description nonlinear surface gravity waves, in deep or shallow water, such as High Order Spectral Method (HOSM) and Boussinesq-type equations, rely on elimination vertical coordinate from basic three-dimensional Euler equations. From a numerical point view are often computationally efficient, which is one main reasons that many frequently studies wav...

The American lobster (Homarus americanus) displays a diverse set of locomotory behaviours that includes tail flips, walking and paddling. Paddling is carried out by the four pairs of paddle-shaped pleopods on the ventral abdomen. Although it is recognized that pleopod-generated fluid flows have some locomotory role in adults, reports on their relative importance in locomotion are inconsistent. ...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present an adaptive numerical algorithm for forward kinematics analysis of general Stewart platform. Design/methodology/approach – Unlike the convention of developing a set of kinematic equations and then solving them, an alternative numerical algorithm is proposed in which the principal components of link lengths are used as a bridge to analyze the for...

the management of road traffic accident and the care of casualties  has undergone many changes in recent years. to provide an uniform and systematic approach the ems, firefighters, red cross, red crescent and other rescuers must be updated to reduce entrapment times, and mortality rates, over better organisation and a methodical approach. the rescuers should not attempt to administer medical fi...

Following recent studies of non-relativistic reductions of the single-nucleon electromagnetic current operator, here we extend the treatment to include meson-exchange current operators. We focus on one-particle emission electronuclear reactions. In contrast to the traditional scheme where approximations are made for the transferred momentum, transferred energy and momenta of the initial-state s...

Crystals present a uniquely simple environment for the investigation of strong electromagnetic fields. When energetic charged particles are incident on crystals close to major crystallographic directions, their electromagnetic interactions depend crucially on the kinematic conditions. The coherence of the crystalline field can produce very strong electric fields in the rest frame of the particl...
