RISLocal Dynamic Stability of Spine Muscle Activation and Stiffness Patterns During Repetitive Lifting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To facilitate stable trunk kinematics, humans must generate appropriate motor patterns to effectively control muscle force and stiffness and respond to biomechanical perturbations and/or neuromuscular control errors. Thus, ...
Meteorological Support to the Earthwinds Transglobal Balloon Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The collocation of the Weather Forecast Office and the Desert Research Institute in Reno, Nevada, has fostered a National Weather Service (NWS)?University collaborative effort that provided meteorological forecasting and ...
Local Dynamic Joint Stability During Human Treadmill Walking in Response to Lower Limb Segmental Loading Perturbations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Our purpose was to quantify changes in local dynamic stability (LDS) of the lumbar spine, hip, knee, and ankle in response to changes in lower limb segment mass, as well as to quantify temporal adaptations to segment loading ...
Fiber Type and Size as Sources of Variation in Human Single Muscle Fiber Passive Elasticity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Studies on single muscle fiber passive material properties often report relatively large variation in elastic modulus (or normalized stiffness), and it is not clear where this variation arises. This study was designed to ...
Lidar Method to Estimate Emission Rates from Extended Sources
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractPollutant emissions to the atmosphere commonly derive from nonpoint sources that are extended in space. Such sources may contain area, volume, line, or a combination of emission types. Currently, point measurements, ...
