Neuromechanical interference of posture on movement: evidence from Alexander technique teachers rising from a chair
While Alexander technique (AT) teachers have been reported to stand up by shifting weight gradually as they incline the trunk forward, healthy untrained (HU) adults appear unable to rise in this way. This study examines the hypothesis that HU have difficulty rising smoothly, and that this difficulty relates to reported differences in postural stiffness between groups. A wide range of movement d...
متن کاملBiomechanical analyses of rising from a chair.
Quantification of the biomechanical factors that underlie the inability to rise from a chair can help explain why this disability occurs and can aid in the design of chairs and of therapeutic intervention programs. Experimental data collected earlier from 17 young adult and two groups of elderly subjects, 23 healthy and 11 impaired, rising from a standard chair under controlled conditions were ...
متن کاملRising from a chair. Influence of age and chair design.
We studied the effect of age on the act of rising from a standard armchair in a younger (means = 24 years) and an older (means = 75 years) group of healthy adult women. Rising from a standard armchair and an armchair specially designed for comfort in sitting of the elderly was studied in the older group to determine the influence of the special chair. We used electrogoniometry, EMG, and videota...

اتانول کاربردهای متنوعی در صنایع لاستیک سازی، رنگسازی، حلالها ومکمل سوخت خودرو دارد. اتانول برخلاف نفت از جمله مواد تجدیدپذیر محسوب می شود که مشکلات زیست محیطی و آلودگی نیز ایجاد نمی کند. استفاده از اتانول به عنوان مکمل سوختخودروها از جمله مهمترین مصارف صنعتی این ماده بشمار می رود. با توجه به این موضوع تحقیق و توسعه در زمینه تولید اتانول با درجه خلوص بالا در سطح جهان، و نه تنها در کشور های پیشر...
