Experience in Action: Incorporating Somatic Education into the General Music Classroom
… relies on the skeletal structure rather than muscular effort, thus preventing common pains and music-related performance injuries.</p>

Analysis, Design, and Control of Supernumerary Robotic Limbs Coupled to a Human
… Limbs (SuperLimbs), on the wearer’s total muscular effort. SuperLimbs brace the human’s body while they work at floor-level, leaving both of their natural limbs free to complete tasks. Their effectiveness varies depending on how they attach to the human (harness design), are coupled to the …

Design of a quasi-passive parallel leg exoskeleton to augment load carrying for walking
… energy throughout the gait cycle. To reduce knee muscular effort, a variable damper is implemented at the knee to support body weight throughout early stance. In this thesis, I hypothesize that a quasi-passive leg exoskeleton of this design will improve metabolic walking economy for carrying a …

Lower body mechanics of golf swing and its association with maximum clubhead speed in skilled golfers
… The skilled golfers relied especially more on muscular effort from the right hip and left knee joints in the sagittal plane. Therefore,the right hip extensor and left knee extensor moments were considered as the good consistent indicator in generating higher clubhead speed in skilled golfers.

Affective And Motivational Components Of The Flow State: Rock Climbing Revisited
… unrelated to the fear, pain and strenuous muscular effort involved in the facilitation of the necessary focal intensity and was reported by all informants as a post hoc evaluation of a positive experience or outcome. Flow received endorsement as a motivational variable, yet was not …

The effect of supplementary Elliptical training protocols on running performance in trained runners
… stepper, and treadmill, and a decrease in muscular effort of lower extremity muscles when exercising at similar intensities on the elliptical trainer and stepper in comparison to treadmill running. It was therefore suggested that the elliptical trainer and stepper could be useful …

Respiratory constraints on speech production at prosodic boundaries
… of recoil forces of the chest wall, net muscular forces, and the area of the airway constriction. Data are presented from four subjects (two men, two women), all native speakers of American English. Perceptual ratings for initial and final prominent syllables and the locations of pauses …

Die Bedeutung des Quotienten aus maximaler Sauerstoffaufnahme und maximalem Laktatwert für die Leistungsdiagnostik
Hochleistungssportler verschiedener Sportarten (Sprinter, Marathonläufer, Radrennfahrer) und Nichtsportler wurden mittels Ergospirometrie miteinander verglichen. Dabei wurde v.a. der Quotient aus maximaler Sauerstoffaufnahme und maximalem Laktatwert genauer betrachtet. Dabei fanden wir Ergebnisse, …

Assessment of joint kinetics in elite sprint cyclists
… very high pedalling rates. The ability to assess muscular function through the course of the sprint would aid training practices for high-level performers. Inverse dynamics provides a non-invasive means of estimating the net muscle actions acting across any joint contributing to movement. However, …
