The data presented in this article are related to the research manuscript "Predictors of older drivers' involvement in rapid deceleration events", which investigates potential predictors of older drivers' involvement in rapid deceleration events including measures of vision, cognitive function and driving confidence (A. Chevalier et al., 2016) [1]. In naturalistic driving studies such as this, ...

Rapid acceleration and deceleration are vital for survival in many predator and prey animals and are important attributes of animal and human athletes. Adaptations for acceleration and deceleration are therefore likely to experience strong selective pressures--both natural and artificial. Here, we explore the mechanical and physiological constraints to acceleration. We examined two elite athlet...

OBJECTIVE To assess the relations between early filling deceleration time, left ventricular remodelling, and cardiac mortality in an unselected group of postinfarction patients. DESIGN AND PATIENTS Prospective evaluation of 131 consecutive patients with first acute myocardial infarction. Echocardiography was performed on day 1, day 2, day 3, day 7, at three and six weeks, and at three, six, a...

The Manne Siegbahn Laboratory is planning for the transfer of the CRYRING synchrotron and storage ring to the future FAIR facility, where it will be used for deceleration of antiprotons and heavy ions at FLAIR. The efficiency of the deceleration process, i.e. the minimization of particle losses, is important, and we show here a strong correlation between losses during the start of the decelerat...

‘Whiplash syndrome’ is a term commonly used to describe hyperflexion, hyperextension and other injuries to the spine, and, in particular, to the cervical region. It is not a universally accepted term, however, is commonly used in medical and legal settings. Cailliet (1991) reports that the term’‘whiplash’ was first coined by Dr. Harold Crowe (1928), who noted that acceleration-deceleration resu...
