Post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) protocols do not further increase jumping performance beyond warm-up effe...
Published in Frontiers in Physiology
Introduction: Post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) cannot be clearly distinguished from and may be explained in large by warm-up effects. To disentangle PAPE from a systemic warm-up effect, we conducted three randomized crossover trials (RCT). Methods: Each RCT consisted of a familiarization/one-repetition-maximum (1RM) assessment session...
Relationship between sleep quality and quantity and lower-body neuromuscular performance characteristics in semi-profess...
Published in Frontiers in Sports and Active Living
Sleep has been recognized as one of the most essential recovery methods necessary for achieving optimal performance. However, there is still a lack of scientific literature focused on examining its impact on one of the most prevalent skills in the game of basketball, the countermovement vertical jump (CVJ). Therefore, the purpose of the present stu...
Does the short-term learning effect impact vertical jump performance assessment on a portable force plate system?
Published in Frontiers in Sports and Active Living
One of the reoccurring questions that arises during the countermovement vertical jump (CVJ) assessment is whether the learning effect has an impact on the accuracy of the results obtained. Thus, the purpose of the present investigation was to examine the impact of the short-term learning effect on the assessment of lower-body neuromuscular performa...
Experiential disparities in social VR: uncovering power dynamics and inequality
Published in Frontiers in Virtual Reality
Social Virtual Reality (SVR) offers new forms of social interaction, identity expression, and embodied experiences, but it has also revealed significant issues related to social inequalities and unequal power dynamics within virtual worlds. Employing a critical, intersectional approach, we investigate how existing power dynamics and inequalities sh...
Converting compression ignition engine to dual-fuel (diesel + CNG) engine and experimentally investigating its performan...
Published in Open Agriculture
One of the suitable solutions for burning natural gas in diesel engines is the use of dual-fuel technology. In this study, the MT440C compression ignition engine has been converted to dual fuel (diesel + CNG) simultaneously combustion of diesel fuel and natural gas, with the least amount of engine changes and using the most amount of natural gas. T...
Production and Investigation of the 150 CC Engine Performance with Bioethanol from Manihot Esculenta Cassava and RON 92 ...
...
Published in IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
This study aimed to determine bioethanol’s characteristics in the form of ethanol content, density, and pH, as well as the effect of a mixture of perlite and bioethanol fuel on torque, power, and the best composition. The approach used is quantitative, in the form of a true experimental design, namely the posttest-only control design, and uses desc...
La puissance de la Russie face à ses évolutions démographiques
La Russie demeure sur le continent européen le seul pays à compter plus de 100 millions d’habitants et donc le plus peuplé. Le « rideau de fer » politique, économique, financier et sportif instauré depuis l’invasion de l’Ukraine du 24 février 2022 n’est pas de nature à faire disparaître sa puissance démographique relative d’autant que les autres pa...
Analysis of Engine performance and Emission of HPLPM Exhaust with Catalytic Converter Distance Variation
...
Published in IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
This research aims to measure the performance and emission of motorcycle engines using three types of mufflers. Original Equipped manufacturer (OEM), High Performance Low Pollution Muffler (HPLPM), and free flow exhaust were used in this research with various placement distances of the catalytic converter. This research utilized a quantitative meth...
Power over and power with: integrating the concept of power into design team and stakeholder interactions
Published in Frontiers in Education
As professionals in the workplace, engineers often have high levels of power or social influence over other people or groups they work with, including in decision-making, project planning, and other professional activities. The concept of power has received considerable attention in the social sciences and humanities but has received less attention...
