AbstractThe objective of the present study was to analyze (based on gender and the style of swimming) the kinematic parameters of the transition phase between underwater swimming and surface swimming after the push-off start in competitive national swimmers. Seventy-four swimmers participating in the Spanish Swimming Championships were filmed and analyzed by DLT-2D photogrammetry during the start with the push-off in crawl, backstroke and butterfly styles. Between genders there were small differences in the distance and speed of transition. The male swimmers travelled greater distances (0.84 ±

Abstract:
Abstract Objective. In healthy gait a forceful push-off is needed to get an efficient leg swing and propulsion, and a high heel lift makes a forceful push-off possible. The power of the push-off is decreased with increased age and in persons with impaired balance and gait. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether a wearable equipment (Striton) and algorithms to estimate vertical heel-height during gait from a single optical distance sensor is reliable and feasible for clinical applications. Approach. To assess heel-height with the Striton system an optical distance sensor was used to meas

Abstract:
Accurate and reliable stride length estimation modules play a significant role in Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) systems, but the accuracy of stride length calculation suffers from individual differences. This paper presents a stride length prediction strategy for PDR systems that can be adapted across individuals and broad walking velocity fields. It consists of a multi-gait division algorithm, which can divide a full stride into push-off, swing, heel-strike, and stance based on multi-axis IMU data. Additionally, based on the acquired gait phases, the correlation between multiple features of

Abstract:
Abnormal gait is a common initial symptom of Wilson’s disease, which responds well to therapy, but has not been analyzed in detail so far. In a pilot study, a mild gait disturbance could be detected in long-term treated Wilson patients. The question still is what the underlying functional deficit of this gait disturbance is and how this functional deficit correlates with further clinical and laboratory findings. In 30 long-term treated Wilson patients, the vertical component of foot ground reaction forces (GRF-curves) was analyzed during free walking without aid at the preferred gait speed ove

Abstract The ability for quick multidirectional accelerations is crucial for athletic performance in team and racquet sports. So far, there has been little research dedicated to different initial step patterns usually applied by players.

Abstract:
Because turning can account for one-third of breaststroke race time in 25 m pools, it is possible that enhancing turning techniques can improve performance significantly. Underwater video cameras and a force platform were used to analyze turning techniques of 23 age-group breaststrokers during three 50 m push-start, maximum-effort swims. The criterion measure was the time elapsed between passing the 5 m mark on the approach and departure from the wall (5 m round-trip time [RTT]). Correlations revealed significant commonality of variance (p < .01) between the 5 m RTT and the 2.5 m RTT, 50 m

The identity is transmitted by what is called a signal and the relationship between the signals and the information they represent is called a code (as distinct from a cipher). Certain types of numbers are commonly used to identify items of information, because they are universally known and endless in quantity: the information, processors, and processing are then said to be digital.

Abstract Physics differs from mathematics in which, to quote Bertrand Russell, ‘we never know what we are talking about, nor whether what we are saying is true’, and from cosmology in which we push our questions back to such great distances and early times that our observations become highly distorted and lose information. By contrast, physics generally works in the here and now. It tries to find mathematical relations among measurable phenomena and quantitative concepts. In this, physics is generally regarded as being extraordinarily successful, an archetype of science. And now I’m going to l

"FIG. 1.8. The subject’s response console for (A) SRT, (B) CRT, (C) DRT (odd man out). The black dot in the lower center of each panel represents the home button. The open circles, 6 inches from the home button, are green, underlighted translucent push-buttons. In the SRT and CRT conditions (i.e., A and B), only one button lights up on each trial; on the DRT task, three buttons light up simultaneously on each trial, with unequal distances between them (shown in C), the remotest button from the other two being the odd man out, which the subject must touch. The response console is 13 in. by 17 in., painted flat black, and tilted at a 30° angle. At the lower center is the home button (black, 1 in. diameter), which the subject depresses with the index finger while waiting for the reaction stimulus. The small circles represent translucent pushbuttons (green, ½ in. diameter, each at a distance of 6 in. from the home button); each button can be lighted independently. Touching a lighted button turns off the light. A test trial begins with the subject depressing the home button (black dot); 1 sec. Later, a preparatory stimulus (beep) of 1 sec. duration occurs; then, after a 1 to 4 sec. random interval, one of the translucent buttons lights up, whereupon the subject’s index finger leaves the home button and touches the lighted button. RT is the interval between a light-button going on and the subject’s lifting the index finger from the home button; MT is the interval between releasing the home button and touching the underlighted button."

ABSTRACT Push-the-bit rotary steerable system (RSS) is a guide technology that realizes directional drilling by controlling the eccentric mechanism to push against the borehole wall. However, the control effect of push-the-bit RSS is often not satisfactory in many interference factors, such as rock anisotropy and trajectory deviation. An intelligent switch control algorithm based on push RSS is proposed to achieve a smooth trajectory, stable control, and efficient decision-making.

Abstract A well with a malfunctioning tubing retrievable sub surface safety valve (TRSSSV) was shut in until a lock-out operation could be undertaken, one which would secure the valve in a fully open position, enabling subsequent intervention programs to be carried out and the well put safely back on production. The TRSSSV design utilized a flapper valve with a power spring mechanism which forces the valve to a normally closed position. Control to the flapper had been lost as the hydraulic communication had been cut off. Repeated attempts to lock open the valve using the conventional lock out
