Abstract:
Drowning is among the top three leading causes of unintentional death worldwide, accounting for over 8% of all injury-related deaths. Annually, over 22,000 deaths occur due to drowning in adults, teenagers, and children. The highest rate is among children aged 0–15 years. Available solutions to this murder (drowning) involve traditional fencing of swimming pools, the use of wrist bands with RF connections, heartbeat sensors, monitoring systems using LASER and LDR, etc. These methods are not sufficient to solve the problems, as past methods involve wearable buildings systems.

Abstract:
This study was performed to determine myofilament overlap during swimming in carp. By using frozen sections, we found that sarcomere lengths of the red and white muscle could be related to the curvature of the backbone. Sarcomere length (SL) during swimming was calculated from an analysis of backbone curvature in high-speed motion pictures. Because carp have the same myofilament lengths as frogs, we related force generation to SL using the frog SL-tension curve. At slow swimming speeds, the red fibers are used at a SL of 1.91-2.22 microns, where force generation is calculated to be no less tha

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to develop an algorithm for a wearable device that would prevent people from drowning in swimming pools. The device should detect pre-drowning symptoms and alert the rescue staff. The proposed detection method is based on analyzing real-time data collected from a set of sensors, including a pulse oximeter. The pulse oximetry technique is used for measuring the heart rate and oxygen saturation in the subject’s blood. It is an optical method; subsequently, the measurements obtained this way are highly sensitive to interference from the subject’s motion. To elimin

Abstract:
Undulate fin is the main propelling organ of MPF mode fish, which could produce propelling wave continually and controllabily while swimming, and this propelling mode has characteristics of high efficiency and low disturbance to fluid field. In this paper, biological structure of “Nilotic Ghost” fish’s long flexible fin(Undulate Fin) is studied with physiological anatomizing and X-ray perspectiving means. Then motion characteristics of the undulate fin are revealed with pictures from fish’s swimming video. Under the bionical conclusions, a hydraulic-driven bionic joint for undulating thruster

Abstract:
ContextAlterations to upper extremity physical characteristics of competitive swimmers (posture, range of motion [ROM], and subacromial-space distance) are commonly attributed to cumulative training load during a swimmer's competitive career. However, this accepted clinical belief has not been established in the literature. It is important to understand whether alterations in posture and associated physical characteristics occur as a result of sport training or factors other than swimming participation to better understand injury risk and possible interventions.ObjectiveTo compare posture, sub

Abstract:
Optical motion capture systems are the gold standard for collecting three-dimensional kinematic data in sports. However, while their use in flow channels is somewhat practical, they are difficult to employ in swimming pools, e.g. due to camera placement and the dynamic refraction of light and air bubbles. IMUs can circumvent these problems, but have so far primarily been used to calculate relatively condensed information such as distance per stroke or lap counts (Magalhaes et al., 2015). Additionally, current commercially available IMU-based systems for the collection of segment orientations a

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate how fish locomote at different muscle temperatures. Sarcomere length excursion and muscle shortening velocity, V, were determined from high-speed motion pictures of carp, Cyprinus carpio (11–14 cm), swimming steadily at various sustained speeds at 10, 15 and 20°C. In the middle and posterior regions of the carp, sarcomeres of the lateral red muscle underwent cyclical excursions of 0.31 μm, centred around the resting length of 2.06 μm (i.e. from 1.91 to 2.22 μm). The amplitudes of the sarcomere length excursions were essentially independent of swimming spee

Propulsive morphology and swimming performance were compared for the odontocete cetaceans Delphinapterus leucas, Orcinus orca, Pseudorca crassidens and Tursiops truncatus. Morphological differences were apparent among the whales. The general body contour and low-aspect-ratio caudal flukes of D. leucas indicated that this species was a low-performance swimmer compared with the other species. Propulsive motions were video-taped as animals swam steadily in large pools. Video tapes were analyzed digitally using a computerized motion-analysis system. Animals swam at relative velocities ranging from

The statics and dynamics of supercooled water in the hydration layer of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) were studied by a combination of quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Two samples, that is, hydrogenated PEG/deuterated water (h-PEG/D2O) and fully deuterated PEG/hydrogenated water (d-PEG/H2O) with the same molar ratio of ethylene glycol (EG) monomer to water, 1:1, are compared. The QENS data of h-PEG/D2O show the dynamics of PEG, and that of d-PEG/H2O reveals the motion of water. The temperature-dependent elastic scattering intensity of both samples

Although drowning is a common phenomenon, the behaviour of drowning persons is poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to provide a quantitative and qualitative analysis of this behaviour. This was an observational study of drowning videos observed by 20 international experts in the field of water safety. For quantitative analysis, each video was analysed with Lince observation software by four participants. A Nominal Group Technique generated input for the qualitative analysis and the two principal investigators conducted a post-hoc analysis. A total of 87.5% of the 23 videos showed d

This thesis questions the reality of such a statement, using the examples of the EU, the U.S. and Canada.<br>The author first explains the mechanism of co-production within the framework of a presentation of the methods of film financing.

This dissertation examines sensation in twentieth-century narratives of London and argues that vulnerability is a constitutive experience of the post-imperial city. Sensations of vulnerability in London arise because of the built environment of the city: its status as an imperial center and a global capital create important intersections of local, national, and global concerns which render the city itself vulnerable. I chart the trajectory of vulnerability as an affective history of London that is documented in cultural texts ranging from fiction and film to political debates and legal materi
