The cricketing shoulder: biomechanics and analysis of potential injury risk factors to the shoulder in elite cricketers
… of motion (ROM), GH internal rotation deficit (GIRD) in the absence of external rotation gain (ERG); and global weakness of the rotator cuff and scapula stabilising muscles. Further, dominant shoulder supraspinatus tendon (SsT) thickness ≥5.85mm (sensitivity: 72%, specificity: 63%) and …

EXAMINING THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN SHOULDER AND ELBOW SOFT-TISSUE PROPERTIES, THROWING MECHANICS, AND RANGE OF MOTION IN ADULT BASEBALL PITCHERS
… of the medial elbow or UCL. Pitchers with GIRD and TRM were found to have significantly stiffer supraspinatus muscle than pitchers without GIRD or TRM deficits and a significant interaction was found between Arm and GIRD for supraspinatus tendon stiffness. Additionally, interactions between …

Caution Light: The Anik E2 Solar Disruption And Its Effect On Telesat Canada
… implications for satellite companies looking to gird themselves against the effects of solar storms. The aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of what was learned from the near-loss of Anik E2 and to provide information for broadcast professionals, satellite technicians and policy makers …

Methodology on Trial: The Rhetorical Function of Toulminian Warrants in Expert Testimony
… defend the scientific methodologies that under-gird the evidence they present to the jury. To analyze these statements, I combine a Toulminian coding system with one developed to analyze assertions of expertise made in non-academic contexts. I identify four distinct challenges expert witnesses …

The history of Spokane Falls W.T. 1871-1891, an example of a colonial built environment
… where the city's layout existed within the gird system of the speculative real estate market where geography was the original commodity throughout resettlement. Understanding these spaces' development is possible through the physical documents created simultaneously with the city's physical …

Recovery Techniques For Finite Element Methods And Their Applications
… eigen- value problems by taking advantage of two-gird method, two-space method, shifted- inverse power method, and gradient recovery enhancement. Theoretical and numer- ical results reveal that the proposed methods provide superconvergent eigenfunction approximation and ultraconvergent eigenvalue …

Enabling wind turbine generators to participate in power grid frequency regulation for enhanced stability
… with the capability to participate in restoring gird frequency. With the proposed controllers, the wind plant can operate as a synchronous generator and is able to output larger or smaller amounts of power as required so as to contribute to grid frequency restoration. The controllers are tested …

Acute effects of self-myofascial release and static stretching on shoulder range of motion and performance in overhead athletes with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit
… with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD).</p> <p>Methods: The sample consisted of 12 male amateur softball players (age: 36.92 ±11.17 years; height: 177.42 ±6.30cm; mass: 87.58 ±18.39kg) who exhibited ≥20° less internal rotation range of motion (ROM) in the throwing shoulder compared …

Matrix-free time-domain methods for general electromagnetic analysis
… arbitrary contrast ratios between the normal gird and the subgrid. Although the resulting system matrix is unsymmetric, we develop a time marching method to overcome the stability problem without sacrificing the matrix-free merit of the original FDTD. This method is general, which is also …

Development of a multi-port DC-DC converter for a magnetically-coupled residential micro-grid
… inverter is designed to link the proposed micro-gird to the main grid. The inverter is controlled by a second DSP at the device level and by the EMU at the system level. The proposed micro-grid is able to operate in different operation modes based on the power flow directions and energy …

Metamodel-based inverse uncertainty quantification of nuclear reactor simulators under the Bayesian framework
… Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE), Sparse Gird Stochastic Collocation (SGSC) and GP were applied respectively for these three problems to replace the full models during MCMC sampling. We proposed an improved modular Bayesian approach that can avoid extrapolating the model discrepancy that …
