The purpose of this study was to develop a novel protocol to be used in assessing performance outcomes in projectile sports. This study also wanted to establish if variability within a movement pattern (throwing) is detrimental to the outcome of that skill and to assess the validity of current methods used to measure performance. Single subject analysis was undertaken as 4 Wilson Trainer TM ten...

A 1:20 scaled three-bladed horizontal-axis tidal turbine is positioned in the wake flows of two wall-mounted obstacles: a square cylinder and combination cube front cylinder. The turbine's induction effects are examined with upstream flow measurements without operating at its optimal regime. In (at 0.07D hub extremity, D diameter), mean axial vertical velocities modified by whatever complexity ...

In this work, we carried out roughness-resolved direct numerical simulations of cube-roughened turbulent channel flows to investigate the effects aligned and staggered arrangements, element spacings, orientations on statistics rough-wall turbulence. The results show that equivalent sandgrain roughness, Reynolds stresses dispersive are affected by spacings arrangements in different ways dependin...

We studied the impact of different visual objects such as a moving hand and a moving cube on the bioelectrical brain activity (i.e., electroencephalogram; EEG). The moving objects were presented in a virtual reality (VR) system via a head mounted display (HMD). Nine healthy volunteers were confronted with 3D visual stimulus presentations in four experimental conditions: (i) static hand, (ii) dy...
