This paper presents a kinetic analysis of the whole reaction course, i.e. of both the transient phase and the steady state, of open multicyclic enzyme cascade systems. Equations for fractional modifications are obtained which are valid for the whole reaction course. The steady state expressions for the fractional modifications were derived from the latter equations since they are not restricted...

Herein a quenched-flow kinetic technique was applied to calculate the rate constants of 1-hexene and 1-octene oligomerization catalyzed by the Cp2ZrCl2 and Cp2HfCl2/MAO catalyst systems, and subsequently a mechanism for the higher α-olefin oligomerization reaction was proposed. The oligomerization results showed that Zr-based catalyst in the oligomerization of 1-octene had the highest activity ...

Background. Effective kick-topspin serving in tennis requires power to transfer mechanical energy through a kinematic chain from different parts of the body that is directly related to the kinetics of the joints. Energy flow analysis is a powerful tool for observing the mechanical energy transfer through the body parts. Objectives. This research aimed to study the correlation and predictive ab...

The effort–motion method, which describes the dynamics of openand closed-chain topologies of rigid bodies interconnected with revolute and prismatic pairs, is interpreted geometrically. Systems are identified for which the simultaneous control of forces and velocities is desirable, and a representative open-chain system is selected for use in the ensuing analysis. Gauge invariant transformation...

Recent studies on myosin V report a number of kinetic differences that may be attributed to the different heavy chain (chicken vs mouse) and light chain (essential light chains vs calmodulin) isoforms used. Understanding the extent to which individual light chain isoforms contribute to the kinetic behavior of myosin V is of critical importance, since it is unclear which light chains are bound t...

Multivinyl monomers that react to form highly crosslinked, biodegradable networks are being developed as scaffolds for tissue engineering and vehicles for drug delivery; however, this work demonstrates their usefulness in characterizing better the complexities of the kinetics and structural evolution during crosslinking photopolymerization. The molecular weight distributions (MWDs) of the degra...

[Purpose] The muscle strength of the quadriceps muscle is critical in patellofemoral pain syndrome. The quadriceps muscle supplies the power for dynamic patellar movement, and the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) enable the patella to stabilize during tracking. We followed the theories about open and closed kinetic chain exercises to design two exercises, sling open chain...
