Abstract:

The monograph presents the results of experimental and theoretical studies conducted using models of driven piles and tape dies. The influence of the cross-section size, length, shape of the trunk and the lower end of the piles on their submergability, energy intensity of driving and load-bearing capacity was evaluated. The design and technological features of new types of piles are considered. A method for determining the load-bearing capacity of a pile model based on the results of dynamic tests has been developed. Similarity conditions and formulas are presented that provide modeling of the

Climate change is escalating the frequency and intensity of natural disasters faced by communities across Australia, challenging our ability to plan for and respond effectively.

In this chapter the current evidence for regular aerobic exercise in primary prevention is discussed and recommendations for exercise interventions in the general population are given. Regular physical exercise is an established therapeutic strategy in a number of cardiovascular diseases and with stable chronic heart failure. In these disease entities moderate-intensity aerobic endurance training is the basis of most training programmes. However, high-intensity interval training is more effective in improving cardiovascular exercise capacity without any measurable additional risks. Resistance

Abstract:

The ability to change swiftly from peace, or prolonged low intensity conflict, to the high intensity of war and succeed in the initial engagements is usually discussed in terms of readiness, capabilities, and capacity, and their related materiel, personnel, doctrine, and training.

This book deals with important, complementary, but generally neglected "soft" aspects of moving from peace to war, such as the mental ability to shift from one reality to another; consolidating a coherent doctrine when war eru

Abstract:

Major features of tetrapod sensory structures are well developed in fish which also have lateral lines, and some have electroreceptors and possibly magnetoreceptors. Receptors may be categorized according to the type of stimulus to which they respond: photoreceptors, chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, temperature receptors and nociceptors. Adaptations to aquatic habitats are described for examples from each category. Each type of receptor has the capacity to transduce (transform) its specific sensory stimulus into receptor potentials which initiate or modulate activity in sensory neurons to the

In children with congenital heart disease, exercise testing is frequently performed to measure cardiorespiratory function and to assess abnormalities of cardiac rhythm. In paediatric cardiology, a reduced exercise capacity is common. This relates not only to the underlying heart defects, but often also to a low level of physical activity in daily life. Exercise training interventions to increase physical activity have been shown generally to be safe and beneficial in increasing exercise capacity. Therefore, except for some cases with medically imposed restrictions of intensive physical exercis

The pathophysiological processes that result in weaning failure are complex and result of an imbalance between the neural respiratory drive, respiratory muscle load, and capacity.
