Nerve Cross Sectional Area in Extremes of Height and Weight
Introduction: Cross-sectional nerve area reference values have been reported for many populations including pediatric, geriatric, and middle-aged, however few studies have investigated extremely tall and heavy individuals. Previous studies are conflicting; some suggest height and others weight as …

Spirometric and gas transfer measurements among normal adult South African men : an investigation into anthropoemtric, socio-economic, racial and environmental factors influencing lung function
… is a lack of consistent data regarding "normal" values in pulmonary function. Despite great progress in standardizing instrumentation, methodology and calculation of the lung function test, the interpretation of the test is complicated by the lack of standardized prediction values. The …

Auto-Calibration of WIM Using Traffic Stream Characteristics
… weights of vehicles from the traffic stream to reference values, using five-axle tractor-trailer configured trucks for comparisons, e.g. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Class 9. Parameters of the existing algorithms including the Front Axle Weight (FAW) reference value, the sampling …

Direct Power Control of AC Motors
… have been separately derived and evaluated. The reference values of control variables are discussed, and estimation of the actual values of those variables is provided. Simulation programs were written for the closed-loop speed control systems under various load conditions to verify the proposed …

Relations among biochemical, individual, and community indicators of stress in fish: stream degradation in the Clinch River drainage
… pristine sites (i.e., high IBI) were used as references to be compared with data obtained from fish sampled at sites suspected of human impact (low IBI). Results demonstrated variable bioindicator response to degraded sites. While bioindicators were elevated at certain sites, others were not …

The relationship between lower limb biomechanicalvariables during common screening tasks
… planes of movement. The second study established reference values for lower-limb biomechanical variables during these tasks in a large population sample (90 healthy participants). Furthermore, gender differences in biomechanical variables were also assessed. Significant differences were noticed in …
