Abstract:
Context:Some researchers have suggested that an alteration of stretch perception could be responsible for the success of the contract-relax (CR) stretch, a stretch technique derived from proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF).Objective:This study was conducted to determine if the alteration of the stretch perception is a possible explanation for the range of motion (ROM) gains of the CR stretch.Participants:Eighteen subjects performed two stretches in randomized order: the slow stretch and the CR stretch.Main Outcome Measure:The stretch intensity was controlled. The stretch force was

Abstract:
The effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) on joint range of motion (ROM) for older adults are unknown, and few studies have investigated changes in joint ROM associated with age. This study examined PNF stretch techniques' effects on knee-joint ROM in trained (T) and untrained (UT) older adults. Knee-joint ROM was tested in T and UT adults age 45–55 and 65–75 years using 3 PNF stretch techniques: static stretch (SS), contract-relax (CR). and agonist contract-relax (ACR). The 45–55 UT group achieved significantly more ROM than did the 65–75 UT group, suggesting an age-relat

Context:Literature supports habitual stretching for increasing an individual’s flexibility; however, immediate gains in range of motion have received limited investigation.Objective:The purpose of this study was to determine the retention of active knee extension range of motion (AKE ROM) after a single bout of stretching.Design:Subjects participated in three experimental stretching groups: contract-relax, agonist contract (CRAC); static stretch; and active control stretch. AKE ROM was measured by an analog inclinometer fixed to a modified Orthotron II for pretreatment and posttreatment measur

Abstract:
Abstract Spasticity-an increased stretch resistance of the passive skeletal muscle with exaggerated tendon jerks-is a common neurologic symptom in palliative care and can result from any lesion (e.g. due to a stroke or a brain tumor) of the long corticospinal tract. The clinical variety of spastic syndromes results from the topology of the CNS lesion and the subsequent differential involvement of the descending pathways. The overall approach to the management of spasticity includes reversing any noxious stimulus, using physical interventions before adding pharmacotherapy, and reserving more in

Abstract:
We introduce an index matching technique which exploits the waveguiding properties of sapphire fibers, reduces the stray light level, and allows for the enhancement of Raman scattering signal- noise ratio. Raman scattering of sapphire fibers was conducted at room temperature using the 476.5 argon laser line. Red shifts were observed under tensile stress for both A1 g and E g phonon modes. The stress-induced Raman shifts for the A1 g modes are in good agreement with the theoretical calculations. The deformation potential constants used in these calculations were obtained from the literature of

Abstract:
As a typical muscular conduit artery, the renal artery manifests an active response when the vascular smooth muscle is stimulated to contract. To present there are few experimental data [1] and no constitutive formulation of the renal arterial tissue that accounts for the active stress developed when the smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are stimulated to contract. Most studies identify the circumferential and axial active stresses by processing the in-vitro experimentally recorded change in diameter and axial force in a tubular arterial specimen inflated by an internal pressure, kept at constant axi

Abstract:
This paper presents preliminary analytical and numerical procedures for the analysis of the motion of extensible belt/pulley systems. These procedures can be used to accurately predict the change in the belt velocity, tension force, normal force, friction force and the cross section deformations along the belt length at the steady state condition. The methods used in this paper relax the assumption of constant shear and internal moment along the belt length, leading to more accurate results as compared to the results obtained using previous models. The analytical solution obtained in this pape
