The peak forces exerted on soft and rigid samples by a force microscope have been modeled by performing numerical simulations of the tip motion in liquid. The forces are obtained by using two contact mechanics models, Hertz and Tatara. We present a comparison between the numerical simulations and...
Peak expiratory flow (PEF) is a useful outcome measure that is solely determined by the force of exhalation and unlike MEP PEF is a brief forceful maneuver as opposed to a more sustained maneuver. This may explain the lower coefficient of variation if PEF compared to MEP. It also has been...
What is peak force in biomechanics?Muscle Injuries:Muscles can become injured when exercising, leading to a potentially lengthy recovery. In order to avoid injury, care must be taken to avoid overly stressing the muscle, and relying on a gradual increase in strength when necessary....
The slope of the contact point is now negative, meaning that rather than having a restoring force with inherent stabilizing attributes, we now have an “amplifying force“, (Vector C), that acts in conjunction with the forces driving the system rightward (Vector A). This then accelerates the...

exercise that relies heavily on glycogen, may be important if methods of water loss are to effect a favorable loss of ECW relative to ICW (ECW > ICW) such that muscle size is retained while interstitial ECW is preferentially lost, potentially enhancing the appearance of muscle “definition...
Bodybuilding is a competitive endeavor where a combination of muscle size, symmetry, “conditioning” (low body fat levels), and stage presentation are judged. Success in bodybuilding requires that competitors achieve their peak physique during the day o
The computed value of rms acceleration is dependent on the specific definition of duration used to measure it—an ambiguity that has limited its use by the engineering community. One of the simplest measures of duration is bracketed duration, defined as the time between the first and last ...
there was a lack of killer applications to drive the fast development of PON access networks for residential users. The fast evolving wireless networks are now becoming a driving force for the developments of new fiberaccess technologiesand standards, especially in the WDM domain. To support very ...
