A kinematical model of the ski jumper's body pose at the beginning of take-off was proposed. A method of measuring skier's body coordinates based on the results of video recordings and office information technologies was created. Kinematical parameters of the skier's body pose at the beginning of take-off were determined using sport competition results of 33 ski jumpers. Five parameters of the ...

An open channel flow can change from a supercritical to subcritical flow with a strong dissipative process: a hydraulic jump. Herein some new measurements of free-surface fluctuations next to the jump toe and integral turbulent scales in the roller are presented with a focus on turbulent hydraulic jumps with a marked roller. The results highlighted the fluctuating nature of the impingement peri...

Futures contract is one of the most important derivatives that is used in financial markets in all over the world to buy or sell an asset or commodity in the future. Pricing of this tool depends on expected price of asset or commodity at the maturity date. According to this, theoretical futures pricing models try to find this expected price in order to use in the futures contract. So in this ar...

introduction althoughthere is a consensus that the economic burden of burn injury is high, but few studies have conducted about cost of burns injury among pediatric in developing countries. we explored the main factors influencing on hospital costs and length of stay (los) associated with pediatric burns injury in kermanshah, iran. methods and material we performed a review ofmedical records fr...

It is shown that particles undergoing discrete-time jumps in three dimensions, starting at a distance r(0) from the center of an adsorbing sphere of radius R, are captured with probability (R-c sigma)/r(0) for r(0)>>R, where c is related to the Fourier transform of the scaled jump distribution and sigma is the distribution's root-mean square jump length. For particles starting on the surface of...

We consider a random walk on the support of an ergodic simple point process on R d , d ≥ 2, furnished with independent energy marks. The jump rates of the random walk decay exponentially in the jump length and depend on the energy marks via a Boltzmann–type factor. This is an effective model for the phonon–induced hopping of electrons in disordered solids in the regime of strong Anderson locali...

For each function on bit strings, its restriction to bit strings of any given length can be computed by a finite instruction sequence that contains only instructions to set and get the content of Boolean registers , forward jump instructions, and a termination instruction. Backward jump instructions are not necessary for this, but instruction sequences can be significantly shorter with them. We...
