We describe a method with which to measure the magnetic field orientation of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) using Faraday rotation (FR). Two basic FR profiles, Gaussian-shaped with a single polarity or N-shaped with polarity reversals, are produced by a radio source occulted by a moving flux rope, depending on its orientation. These curves are consistent with Helios observations, providing evide...

The study purpose was to identify the effects of a combination plyometric exercises in increasing leg and arm power abilities volleyball athletes. Materials methods. Forty students were involved this study. They who active practicing volleyball, then they divided into four groups 10 each, namely (1) Squat thrust jumps clap push-ups, (2) lateral (3) Rope push-ups; (4) push-ups. Then practiced pl...

Monkeypox (MPX) is a zoonotic disease endemic in Central and West Africa and is caused by Monkeypox virus (MPXV), the most virulent Orthopoxvirus affecting humans since the eradication of Variola virus (VARV). Many aspects of the MPXV transmission cycle, including the natural host of the virus, remain unknown. African rope squirrels (Funisciurus spp.) are considered potential reservoirs of MPXV...

BACKGROUND For patients with cryptogenic stroke (CS) and patent foramen ovale (PFO), it is unknown whether the magnitude of right-to-left shunt (RLSh) measured by contrast transcranial Doppler (c-TCD) is correlated with the likelihood an identified PFO is related to CS as determined by the Risk of Paradoxical Embolism (RoPE) score. Additionally, for patients with CS, it is unknown whether PFO a...

BACKGROUND The buttonhole technique is an alternative method of cannulating the arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in hemodialysis (HD), frequently used for home HD patients. However, the balance of risks and benefits of the buttonhole compared with the rope-ladder technique is uncertain. STUDY DESIGN A systematic review of randomized trials and observational studies (case reports, case series, stud...

Inserting an end of a rope through a loop is a common and important action that is required for creating most types of knots. To perform this action, we need to pass the end of the rope through an area that is enclosed by another segment of rope. As for all knotting actions, the robot must for this exercise control over a semi-compliant and flexible body whose complex 3d shape is difficult to p...

Research suggests that lead climbing is both physiologically and psychologically more stressful than top rope climbing for intermediate performers. This observation may not be true for advanced climbers, who train regularly on lead routes and are accustomed to leader falls. The aim of this study was to compare the psychophysiological stresses of lead and top rope on-sight ascents in advanced ro...

Wireless Rope aims to study large scale Bluetooth scanning for proximity detection with consumer devices and its effects on group dynamics during the conference. Participants can download a program for Java enabled phones, which collects information of surrounding devices by Bluetooth. Users can interact through a GUI with members of an existing group or form a new group. All connection informa...

We present a topological model for energy storage and subsequent release in a sheared arcade of either infinite or finite extent. This provides a quantitative picture of a twisted flux rope produced through reconnection in a two-ribbon flare. It quantifies relationships between the initial shear, the amount of flux reconnected and the total toroidal flux in the twisted rope. The model predicts ...

Automatic visual inspection of wire ropes is an important but challenging task, as anomalies in the rope are usually unobtrusive. Certainly, a reliable anomaly detection is essential to assure the safety of the ropes. A one-class classification approach for the automatic detection of anomalies in wire ropes is presented. Furthermore, the performance of different well-established features from t...
