Science and Skiing VI
The book contains the proceedings of the Sixth International Congress on Science and Skiing, which was held at St. Christoph am Arlberg, Tyrol, Austria, in December 2013. The conference was organized and hosted by the Department of Sport Science at the University of Salzburg, Austria. It was also part of the programs of the steering group “Science and Skiing” of the World Commission of Sports Science and contains a broad spectrum of current research work in Alpine and Nordic skiing and in snowboarding. In the proceedings of this congress, the keynotes as well as the oral presentations are published. The manuscripts were subject to peer review and editorial judgment prior to acceptance.
Electrodiagnosis in Diseases of Nerve and Muscle
Intended for clinicians who perform electrodiagnostic procedures as an extension of their clinical examination, and for neurologists and physiatrists who are interested in neuromuscular disorders and noninvasive electrodiagnostic methods, particularly those practicing electromyography (EMG) this book provides a comprehensive review of most peripheral nerve and muscle diseases, including specific techniques and locations for performing each test.
Intermediate Mechanics of Materials
This book covers the essential topics for a second-level course in strength of materials or mechanics of materials, with an emphasis on techniques that are useful for mechanical design. Design typically involves an initial conceptual stage during which many options are considered. At this stage, quick approximate analytical methods are crucial in determining which of the initial proposals are feasible. The ideal would be to get within 30% with a few lines of calculation. The designer also needs to develop experience as to the kinds of features in the geometry or the loading that are most likely to lead to critical conditions. With this in mind, the author tries wherever possible to give a ph...
The Contribution of Postural Adjustments to Body Balance and Motor Performance
The control of balance by the central nervous system is crucial to maintain our posture and perform efficiently our daily motor tasks. This control requires the development of dynamical phenomena sub-served by highly-coordinated patterns of muscle activation/deactivation disseminated throughout the whole-body and called “postural adjustments”. Establishing the interaction between balance control, locomotion and cognition has important clinical implication, especially in term of falls prevention, and will improve our knowledge on the underlying neural correlates. This Research Topic provides an up-to-date picture of the relationship between postural adjustments, body balance and motor per...
Similar Patterns of Tendon Regional Hypertrophy After Low-load Blood Flow Restriction and High-load Resistance Training
Abstract: Purpose Recent evidence indicates that low-load blood flow restriction (LL-BFR) training elicits an anabolic response in tendinous tissue. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the hypertrophic pattern induced in the Achilles tendon by LL-BFR, in comparison with the regional hypertrophy typically observed with conventional high-load (HL) resistance training. Methods N = 40 male participants were randomly and concealed allocated to one of two groups: LL-BFR training (20-35% one-repetition maximum/1RM) or HL training (70-85% 1RM). The training was completed three times per week for a total of 14 weeks. Before and after the training period, Achilles tendon morphology was...
