Introduction: Muscular fatigue is a common phenomenon in daily sports activities and is worsening motor performance. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of neck muscular fatigue on static and dynamic postural control in elite male volleyball players. Correspondence: Maryam Mazidi, MSc.

This paper presents a fatigue life prediction model of post-impacted sheets considering the effects dent size and stress ratio. Low-velocity impact tests at four different energies were performed on specimens cut from 2524-T3 7075-T62 aluminium alloy. Following tests, static tensile uni-axial constant amplitude block spectrum experiments conducted. Numerical models generated to determine initia...

In this paper, individual and combined effects of distributed and local geometrical imperfections on the limit load of an isotropic, thin-walled cylindrical shell under axial compression are investigated. First eigen affine mode shape imperfection pattern (FEAMSIP) is taken as distributed geometrical imperfections and dent as local geometrical imperfections. Limit load of the cylindrical shells...

The effects of carbon content on the dynamic and static softening mechanisms of Ti microalloy steels were investigated both in ferrite and austenite regions. &#10The results obtained showed that recrystallization rate decreased as the percentage of carbon content was increased from 0.0035 to 0.110. This is due to the Ti(CN) and TiC precipitates and also the free carbon content. In the ferrite r...

the aim of this study was to evaluate sound and decayed wood of iranianbeech (fagus orientalis) with a nondestructive stress wave method. wood samples,with dimensions of 9 by 19 by 200 mm were decayed in laboratory soil-bed tests,based on european pre-standard env-807. the decay was evaluated by measuringbending dynamic modulus of elasticity (moed) and longitudinal dynamicmodulus of elasticity ...

abstract: in this paper, the results of experimental and numerical simulation of low velocity impact process have been carried out to investigate energy absorption of composite sandwich panels with 3d woven fabrics of glass fibers and epoxy resin. for this purpose, diagrams of force-displacement of the quasi-static and quasi-dynamic impact tests were studied. for the finite element simulation, ...

To explore the role of adiposity on hypertriglyceridemia associated with obesity, we examined the relation between triglyceride secretion rate (TGSR) and plasma leptin, insulin, or insulin resistance in ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH)-lesioned rats in the dynamic and static phases (2 and 14 wk after lesions, respectively). VMH-lesioned rats gained body weight (BW) at fivefold higher rates in th...
