RISAn Updated Blizzard Climatology of the Contiguous United States (1959–2014): An Examination of Spatiotemporal Trends
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lizzards are extreme winter storms that are defined by strong winds and falling or blowing snow that significantly reduces visibility for an extended period of time. For the conterminous United States, blizzard occurrence ...
Ohio River Valley Winter Moisture Conditions Associated with the Pacific–North American Teleconnection Pattern
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relationship between the Pacific?North American (PNA) teleconnection pattern and Ohio River Valley (ORV) winter precipitation and hydrology is described. The PNA is significantly linked to moisture variability in an ...
A Synoptic Climatology of the Central United States and Associations with Pacific Teleconnection Pattern Frequency
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A synoptic climatological weather classification scheme incorporating both surface and upper-air data is developed for the central United States based on an automated two-step cluster analysis. It employs daily NCEP?NCAR ...
Development and Validation of a Framework for Predictive Simulation of Treadmill Gait
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Treadmill training is a common intervention to promote healthy walking function for individuals with pathological gait. However, because of the heterogeneity of many patient populations, determining how an individual will ...
We Will, We Will Shock You: Adaptive Versus Conventional Functional Electrical Stimulation in Individuals Post-Stroke
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is often used in poststroke gait rehabilitation to address decreased walking speed, foot drop, and decreased forward propulsion. However, not all individuals experience clinically ...
Adaptive Functional Electrical Stimulation Delivers Stimulation Amplitudes Based on Real-Time Gait Biomechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is often used in poststroke gait rehabilitation to decrease foot drop and increase forward propulsion. However, not all stroke survivors experience clinically meaningful improvements ...
Comparison of MRI-Based Estimates of Articular Cartilage Contact Area in the Tibiofemoral Joint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) detrimentally impacts the lives of millions of older Americans through pain and decreased functional ability. Unfortunately, the pathomechanics and associated deviations ...
Evaluation of a Long-Term (1882–2005) Equivalent Temperature Time Series
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 124 (1882?2005) summer record of total surface energy content consisting of time series of surface equivalent temperature (TE) and its components T (mean air temperature) and Lq/cp (moist enthalpy, denoted Lq) is developed, ...
Weathering the Storm: Revisiting Severe-Weather Phobia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
How Important is Position in Adaptive Treadmill Control?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To more closely mimic overground walking, researchers are developing adaptive treadmills (ATMs) that update belt speed in real-time based on user gait mechanics. Many existing ATM control schemes are solely based on position ...
