In Part II of the study, the British Olympic track (sprint) squad cyclists demonstrated reductions in body fat index, % body fat and endomorphy (p greater than .05), increased Hb and PCV % (p greater than .05), and lowered HR at rest and in warm-up exercise (p greater than .05), but no change in leg power. Repeated interval sprints of short duration, maximal exercise on an "ergowheel" ergometer...

This paper proposes RAGA-PPE comprehensive assessment model for power quality specific to highdimensional index system issue of comprehensive evaluation for power quality to realize continuous evaluation for power quality of multi-index regional power grid from three dimensions of index, time and region through adjustment of time factor size. The model adopts PPE to convert power index of multi...

We employ the DEMATEL-based analytic network process (D-ANP) to evaluate the weight of various factors on S&P 500 index futures. The general regression method is employed to prove the result. We then employed grey relational analysis (GRA) to examine predictive power of determinants suggested by 13 experts for fluctuations in S&P 500 index futures. This study yields a number of empirical result...

increasing the usage of electricity power illustrates its growing proportion and effective role in the energy economy. it also depicts the connection between using the electricity power and economic development. regarding the strategic role of power plants in the economic and social development, the absence of the environmental considerations in all phases, including site selection, planning, p...

In this paper, free vibration analysis and forced vibration analysis of FG doubly clamped micro-beams is studied based on the third order shear deformation and modified couple stress theories. The size dependent dynamic equilibrium equations and both the classical and non-classical boundary conditions are derived using a variational approach. It is assumed that all properties of the FG micro-be...

The studies of the behavior of fluid on the nano-level has shown to be an important means of influencing the characteristic of fluid must especially in the area of thermal conductivity. Giving relevance in numerous fields such as biomedicine, manufacturing, fuel cells and soon on. This article considers flow and heat transfer of viscous fluid conveying Gold nanoparticles through expanding or co...

In this paper, we prove that both problems for calculating the Banzhaf power index and the Shapley-Shubik power index for weighted majority games are NP-complete.

Purpose: previous studies have suggested that thigh muscle imbalance may be a risk factor for knee injury. The Present study aimed to compare Hamstring-to-Quadriceps (H:Q) Ratio and dynamic stability between the two lower limbs of elderly people. Methods: This was a correlational study and by nonprobability sampling 19 healthy community doweling elderly (age=65.93±3.53 yrs.) p...
