Stair Negotiation in an older adult population: Analysis of the lower limb
… limb during stair negotiation in an older adult population. It has been identified that more research is needed to determine key determinants of difficulty and safety on stairs. The objective of this thesis was to investigate lower limb kinematics and kinetics during stair negotiation and …

Single Unit and Population Analysis of Saccade-related Fastigial Nucleus Activity in the Alert Monkey
… from contralateral ones. Individual neurone analysis as well as population burst analysis based on averaging the data across neurones, show that neither the vertical nor the horizontal component of the initial eye position substantially influences saccade-related bursting of the FOR neurone …

An adaptive image processing algorithm for field plant population analysis based on UAV imaging system
Plant population is among the most important items of agricultural data. In crop science, plant population determines canopy closure time, plant spacing, and weeds competition. For farmers, if plant population can be obtained in time, it can help in crop management decisions on replanting, …

Estimate of size and interaction of the South African anchovy and pilchard populations
… size of the South African anchovy and pilchard population was estimated using Virtual Population Analysis (Gulland 1965). These estimates were used to test classical stock recruit models as well as to investigate possible stock interactions. The population biomass of the pilchard indicated a …

Nutritional adequacy comparison of Paleo and healthy U.S. dietary patterns followed by athletic adults
… followed through self-adherence in an American population. Analysis of week-long diet journals of six healthy, physically active, young adults (HUS, <em>n</em> = 4; Paleo, <em>n</em> = 2) showed similar dietary quality between the groups with sub-optimal intake of several micronutrients. …

The effect of mobilisation on pressure pain thresholds in the lumbar spine
… (PPT) in the lumbar spine in an asymptomatic population. Analysis of pre and post intervention PPT values showed that there was only minimal increase in PPT in the mobilisation group and a decrease in the sham group. Paired t-tests indicated that there was no significant change following …

A computer simulation of the population dynamics of the Cape hakes (Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus)
… model was designed to investigate the hake population. Where appropriate, available data have been included in the model; however, some further research was required: 1. The monthly pattern of availability for 1974-76 was examined using South African data; it was found to be similar to that …

A study on the effect of lateral interactions on methanation over Fe(100)
… configuration were identified using the Mulliken population analysis and the Bader population analysis. These gave insights into configurations which displayed large electrostatic lateral interactions. Lateral interactions were investigated using larger unit cells than typically utilized in …
