The aim of this study has been to determine the relationship between the shape of the thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis and sagittal trunk inclination, and the longitudinal and transverse arches of the feet, the position of the hallux and the fifth toe in women with normal and excessive body weight. Material and methods: Eighty nine women aged from 57 to 84 were studied. The shape of the spine was examined using the Zebris pointer ultrasound system, and the shape of feet was evaluated with a podoscope with a 3D scanner.

Abstract:
Professional divers were instructed to adopt a vertical posture under water with their feet fixed to the ground and to perform a fast forward or backward upper trunk bending movement in response to a tone. Kinematic and EMG analyses were performed. It was first noted that the divers adopted a forward inclined, erect posture, suggesting that the verticality was misevaluated, although the effects of gravity were still exerted on the otoliths. Second, the upper trunk movements were still accompanied by opposite movements of lower segments and, as a result, the center of gravity displacement was s

Abstract:
Fast forward and backward upper trunk movements were analyzed and compared under microgravity and under preflight and postflight conditions. The kinematic analysis showed that the upper trunk movements were accompanied by hip and knee movements in the opposite direction both under microgravity and under normal gravitational conditions. This suggests that the center of mass position with respect to the feet is still regulated under microgravity when the feet are attached to the floor. The EMG analysis during backward movements shows that under preflight conditions a set of muscles (ErSp, BF, So

Abstract:
The Speculative Trunk is concerned with the body. Where poems are ideas they are also things always. The physical body of a poem receives certain treatment by the human body engaged in consuming it. But, speaking generally, the bodies of poems have tended to be dictated, not by play within a vital contextual space, but by tradition and the limitations of material means of replication. The Speculative Trunk is an adventure; a mess; a re-fleshing of the body of the poem. This concern extends beyond to text to the human bodies that handle a work, or your hand.

While military body armor is used among warfighters for protection on and off the battlefield, it has been suggested to impede performance and act as a risk factor for the development of musculoskeletal disorders, especially low back pain. Apart from personal suffering, low back pain in soldiers is a great economic burden on the US economy.

Elements of an individuals occupational exposure, such as their posture can affect their comfort during work, and also their long term musculoskeletal health.

In many situations the exposures interact, and even if the effects of individual exposures are understood, the interactions are often less so.

Abstract:
Abstract A two-car full-scale collision test was conducted on April 4, 2000. Two coupled rail passenger cars impacted a rigid wall at 26 mph. The cars were instrumented with strain gauges, accelerometers, and string potentiometers, to measure the deformation of critical structural elements, the longitudinal, vertical, and lateral car body accelerations, and the displacements of the truck suspensions. Instrumented crash test dummies were also tested in several seat configurations, with and without lap and shoulder belts. The objectives of the two-car test were to measure the gross motions of th

Abstract:
During the installation of a gas main line, tap valve assemblies can be provided at strategic locations along the pipeline to allow lateral lines to be tied-in. In existing main lines that do not have a tap valve assembly, a lateral tie-in can be made with a hot tap to the main line. The underwater branch connection then consists of the tee or hot tap fitting on the main line plus valves and other fittings as required. The design of underwater branch connections for gas transmission pipelines must comply with the requirements set out in the applicable design codes and regulations. This informa
