Although previous studies have demonstrated that skeletal muscle adaptations were specific to the types of stimuli, eccentric training studies presented controversial results concerning strength gains in eccentric, isometric and concentric tests. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate torque-velocity adaptations following isokinetic eccentric training protocol using the quadriceps as a model. Twenty physically active men were randomly assigned to a control group (CG; n=10) or to an eccentric training group (ETG; n=10). Knee extensor torque-velocity relationship including isometric tests and isokinetic tests at 60°/s, 120°/s, 180°/s, 240°/s and 300°/s in concentric and eccentric modes, were assessed before and after a 12-week period of eccentric training (3 sessions/week; 2–5 sets of 7–9 maximal repetitions per session performed at 60°/s along a range of motion 90°). Isokinetic eccentric training significantly increased the knee extensor torque at the training velocity (59%) and at the adjacent velocities (24% at 120°/s and 29% in the isometric test). These results demonstrate the specificity of strength gains in isokinetic eccentric training in relation to contraction type and to angular velocity.

Authors: Koç Hürmüz , Aycan Kenan
Published: October 2018

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine hand grip strength in individuals with and without the palmaris longus (PL) muscle.

Method: Sixty-eight participants from different sports volunteered to participate in this study. The mean age of participants with PL (PL+) or without (PL-) was almost identical, 21.9 ± 1.9 y and 21.7 ± 1.5 y, respectively. Length of dominant arm, width of elbow, wrist and hand grip strength of the subjects were measured using measuring tape whereas a hand grip dynamometer was used to measure hand grip strength.

Results: The wrist-width, forearm flexion position and the hand grip strength differed significantly between the groups (p < 0.05).

Conclusion: This result indicates that the PL may enhance hand grip strength.
Differences in muscle activation patterns among the quadriceps femoris muscles during fatiguing isokinetic leg extensions
Authors: Beck Travis W. , Stock Matt S. , DeFreitas Jason M.
Published: October 2018

The purpose of this investigation was to use electromyography (EMG) combined with pattern classification procedures to examine differences in activation among the superficial quadriceps femoris muscles during fatiguing concentric isokinetic muscle actions. Ten men (mean ± SD age=22.4 ± 1.2 yrs) and six women(mean ± SD age=23.0 ± 2.1 yrs) performed 50 consecutive maximal concentric isokinetic muscle actions of the dominant leg extensors at a velocity of 180°/s. During each muscle action, bipolar surface EMG signals were detected from the vastus lateralis (VL), rectus femoris (RF), and vastus medialis (VM). These signals were then processed with a wavelet analysis, and the resulting intensity patterns were classified using pattern classification procedures. The results demonstrated that the EMG intensity patterns could be separated into muscle-specific groups with rates ranging from 89–100% and classified with accuracy levels between 84% and 100%. These findings showed muscle-specific activation patterns in the quadriceps femoris muscles, despite common femoral nerve innervation. These differences in activation likely reflected the different roles of each muscle during leg extension. Future studies need to be done to further examine these differences during other activities that include movement at the hip joint, such as running and cycling.
Concentric and eccentric isokinetic knee extension: A reproducibility study using the IsoMed 2000-dynamometer
Authors: Dirnberger Johannes , Kösters Alexander , Müller Erich
Published: October 2018

The purpose of this study was to determine relative as well as absolute reproducibility for the IsoMed 2000-dynamometer in measuring Peak Torque (PT) during concentric and eccentric maximum knee extension at two angular velocities. Thirty five physically active male subjects (mean age: 23.7 years) with no prior experience of isokinetic exercise were measured on three occasions (T1–T3), separated by 48–72 h. Detection of systematic errors was performed using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni post hoc adjustments. Further statistical calculations were done between consecutive pairs of sessions (T1–T2; T2–T3). Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC 2,1) were calculated to assess relative reproducibility, whereas absolute reproducibility was determined by the standard error of measurement (SEM). A highly significant systematic error was found for the eccentric measurements with values on the first visit being around 5% lower than corresponding values on the second and third visit. ICC values of 0.907–0.955 and 0.968–0.984 with corresponding values of SEM of 7.4–19.1 and 4.5–10.9 Nm were found for T1–T2 and T2–T3, respectively. In conclusion, high reproducibility was shown for the IsoMed 2000-dynamometer in measuring PT during concentric and eccentric knee extension. However, due to a systematic practice-based improvement found for eccentric measurements, we suggest to do a familiarisation session prior the actual testing sessions in practice.
Elbow and shoulder muscles strength profile in judo athletes
Authors: Ruivo R. , Pezarat-Correia P. , Carita A.I.
Published: October 2018

In this case control study we aimed at characterizing elbow and shoulder muscular strength profile in male judokas. Isokinetic variables pertaining to shoulder internal and external rotation and elbow flexion and extension were measured at 60 and 180°/s, in a group of 22 national male judokas and in a control group of 22 healthy participants. The judo athletes were significantly stronger than the non-athletes. The mean values of ER:IR ratio observed in the judokas group were lower than in the control group. The mean values of elbow Flex:Ext ratio were similar in both groups at 60°/s, but significantly higher at 180°/s in the judokas group. These findings indicate sport specific muscular adaptations in the dominant shoulder and elbow in male judo athletes. The results of this study provide information that may be of importance for developing training and rehabilitation programs for judo athletes.

Authors: Dirnberger Johannes , Wiesinger Hans-Peter , Kösters Alexander , Müller Erich
Published: October 2018

The present study was conducted to evaluate the relative and absolute reproducibility of the IsoMed 2000-dynamometer in measuring Peak Torque (PT) during maximum isometric and isokinetic (60 and 120°/s) knee flexion and extension. Thirty four physically active male subjects (mean age: 23.2 years) were measured in three sessions (T1–T3), 48–72 h apart. Repeated measures analysis of variance(ANOVA) with Bonferroni post hoc adjustments revealed significant systematic errors for isokinetic flexion measurements with mean values on the second and third visit being around 3–5% than the corresponding values obtained in the first visit. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC 2,1) of 0.90–0.98 and 0.94–0.98 combined with values of standard error of measurement (SEM) of 5.5–9.1 and 4.0–9.0 Nm were found for T1–T2 and T2–T3, respectively. Based on the systematic errors found for flexor measurements and a clear improvement in reproducibility parameters from T1–T2 to T2–T3 for nearly all measurements, we recommend the use of a familiarisation session prior to actual testing.
Surface electromyographic alterations of the knee extensor musculature based on contraction intensity and velocity
Authors: Croce R.V. , Miller J.P. , Smith W.J. , Horvat M.
Published: October 2018

The effect of contraction intensity (100%-, 75%-, 50%-, and 25%-maximum voluntary contraction [MVC]) and movement velocity (0°, 100°, 200°, 300°, and 400°/s) on the root mean square amplitude(SEMG-RMS) and median frequency power spectrum (SEMG-MPF) of the surface electromyography of the vastus medialis (VM) and rectus femoris (RF) muscles during isokinetic extension movements was investigated. Eight healthy female university students (age=23.1 ± 2.6 yrs., mean height=161.8 ± 6.8 cm, mean weight=64.6 ± 6.1 kg) with no known knee pathologies participated in the study. Peak moment (PM), SEMG-MPF, and SEMG-RMS were analyzed using separate repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results indicated (p⩽ 0.05): (1) an inverse relationship between PM and movement velocity, which was consistent with the literature and the force-velocity curve; (2) an increase in VM and RF SEMG-RMS across all isovelocity movements compared to isometric, with highest values occurring at 200°/s; (2) a linear increase in SEMG-RMS as force levels increased from 25%-MVC to 100%-MVC; and, (3) an increase in SEMG-MPF values during isovelocity movements compared to that found during isometric contractions, with highest values at 50°/s, suggesting isovelocity movements facilitated a greater recruitment of fast-twitch fibers. It appears that the degree to which the central nervous system activates muscle is based on the interplay of both contraction intensity and velocity needed to complete the required motor task.

Published: October 2018

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between the free-throw percentage, joint position sense, and muscle torque in professional basketball players.

Methods: Eleven professional basketball players participated in the study, with each subject acting as their own internal control by using the non-dominant side. Knee and shoulder joint of the players were evaluated bilaterally. Flexion and extension peak torque of the knee were evaluated isokinetically system. In addition flexion/abduction/external rotation (F/ABD/ER) and extension/adduction/ internal rotation (E/ADD/IR) diagonal pattern peak torque of the shoulder were measured. The joint position sense of both knees and shoulders were evaluated using an active angle reproduction. Thirty, 45, 60 and 75° target angles were used for knee and 160, 135, and 120° target angles were used shoulder. The free-throw percentage of the players for 40∼matches in the 2009–2010 season was taken from the Turkish Basketball League official website. The relationship between the peak torque of the muscles, joint position sense, and the free-throw percentage was evaluated.

Results: There were no significant differences in the peak torques of the knee and shoulder muscles and joint position sense between the dominant and non-dominant sides (p> 0.05). There was a significant correlation between the free-throw percentage and the peak torque of the shoulder muscles during the F/ABD/ER pattern at 60°/s in the dominant side of the players. There was a borderline trend to significance between the free-throw percentage and the shoulder joint position sense (eyes-closed and at 160°) in the dominant side. There was a borderline significant correlation between the free-throw percentage and the knee joint position sense (eyes-open and at 75°) in the dominant side.

Conclusions: The effect of proprioceptive and strengthening exercises on the free-throw percentage is still unknown. Further comprehensive studies are warranted to analyze the effect of proprioceptive and strengthening exercises on the free-throw percentage in elite basketball players.
The effects of intracerebroventrically administered opioid peptide receptor antagonists on exercise performance

Published: October 2018

Physical exercise increases the level of endogenous opiates that possibly play a major role for integration of hormonal and metabolic responses to exercise. Increased endogenous opioids in response to physical activity may enhance the performance through decreasing pain perception. However, what possible effect the opioid peptides have on physical exercise at the level of central nervous system remains to be elucidated. In this study, naloxone (N=6), and naltrindole (N=8) were administered intracerebroventrically to rats. A physiologic saline group (N=10) and a control group (N=8) were also included in the study. All groups were then subjected to exhaustive exercise on a treadmill. Besides recording the exhaustion time, blood glucose and lactate levels were measured before and after exercise. Treatments with naloxone and naltrindole had no effect on the exhaustion time. In comparison with pre-exercise period, lactate levels increased, while glucose levels decreased significantly in the blood of all animals during post-exercise period. However, decreased level of glucose in the post-exercise period was statistically significant only in those treated with naltrindole, compared with the other groups. Our findings indicate that the central endogenous opioid peptides may have a role in the regulation of glucose metabolism during exhaustive exercise. This effect can be mediated via delta opioid receptors, although they exert no effect on the performance, namely, on the exhaustion time.

Aim: To evaluate bone mass in female basketball players and the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and isokinetic muscle strength.

Methods: We investigated 29 female basketball players, age 21.9 ± 9.1 years, training for about 6–8 hours per week. The reference group consisted of 22 non-active female, age 21.4 – 1.5 years. BMD was measured using dual-energy-X-ray absorptiometry in total body, lumbar spine, the whole femur and humerus. Isokinetic peak torque of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles were measured at 60 and 180°/s. Osteocalcin (OC) and cross-linked C-telopeptide (CTX) were measured by radioimmunoassay and electrochimiluminescence, respectively.

Results: Compared to the controls, the basketball group had significantly (P <0.001) a higher BMD in the total body (11.6%), the lumbar spine (9.83%), the dominant femur(16.8%), the non-dominant femur (15.8%) and the dominant humerus(8.47%). The female basketball players had also significantly higher peak torques at both isokinetic velocities (60 and 180°/s) and for both lower limbs. All muscle peak torque measured for the female basketball players were significantly correlated with correspondent leg BMD and for both velocities tested. However, no significant correlations were noted for the control group. Values of formation (OC) and resorption (CTX) markers were significantly higher in the athletic females (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively).

Conclusion: Our results show clearly that practice of basketball is associated with the improvement of bone mass. In addition, the most important finding of our study is that isokinetic muscle strength seems to be correlated with correspondent BMD in female basketball players.

Published: October 2018

Frequency and temperature dependence of the hysteresis loops (both major and minor hysteresis loops) of well-known materials such as pure Fe and pure Ni in the as-cast state and after a heat treatment, were measured and analyzed. Furthermore temperature dependent magnetostriction of the as-cast and annealed Ni sample were measured and residual stresses were estimated by assuming the magnetoelastic energy as the origin of coercivity H c. The hysteresis measurements were made on fully automized hysteresigraph which is handled by a labview program. The system works with ring- or frame-shaped samples in the frequency range from 0.1 Hz to 2 kHz and in the temperature range from −77 K to 493 K.

In scientific publications and conducted studies, the possibility of representing logical functions (LF) in alternative forms of representation is demonstrated, the characteristic feature of which is a polynomial entity, which reduces to the representation of LF in the form of series different from the traditional classical  representation by adding members of a series - in particular, for an algebraic form, the addition is carried out algebraically with weight coefficients, and in the case of the use of the Reed-Muller form addition is made for mod 2. The results of complete sets of logical functions studies proved that the traditional classical form does not always ensure the minimality of indicators for the structural complexity of  the logical functions implementation, which makes relevant further steps in determining the optimal forms for representing logical functions in the problems of discrete devices analysis and synthesis. The implementation of the combination scheme for a given logical function from n arguments is carried out by some set of variants of structures. In problems of analysis and synthesis of combinational circuits of discrete devices it is necessary to evaluate the quality of their possible structures, to provide identification and selection of the most successful or optimal ones. The concept of the logical functions optimal form of representation is presented in the article as an important direction of structural perfection of discrete devices on the basis of their logical functions realization in alternative forms of representation. The existence of the OFR-concept, which takes into account different forms of representation, makes it highly efficient to use alternative forms of logical functions representation from the point of the structural complexity parameters of the combinational schemes implementation in comparison with traditional classical form. The article outlines the factors for the further improvement of the OFR-concept by filling it with new scientific achievements, which will allow to completely or partially remove difficulties with the introduction of the optimal FR into broad engineering practice

The requirements to the quality of higher education in Ukraine and in the world are rising. This means that the quality of strategic management of HEIs is a guarantee of successful implementation of the state reform of higher education in Ukraine. In this conditions, there is no doubt that the adjustment of the universities’ strategies is inevitable if they are going to adapt to new challenges. The article is devoted to the evaluation from the process approach of the management of effectiveness of the university's strategy as a project-oriented organization. the matrix "competitive position / growth trend" for the universities of the Kharkiv region in 2017 was constructed. A comparative assessment of the activities of universities of the Kharkiv region in 2017 has been carried out for three components: quality of scientific and pedagogical potential; quality of training; international recognition. The paper investigates the hypothesis of a connection between the position in the official rating of universities and the quality of its strategic plan. The data of the Consolidated rating of Ukrainian universities and the rating of CEDOS for 2015-1017 are used. Correlation connection with time lag between these indicators is proved. The rank correlation increases with the increase of the time lag (in this paper the range of the time lag {0; 1; 2} was investigated, due to the availability of empirical data). The research evaluated the degree of correlation of the observed phenomena (the content of the strategic plan and the university’s position in the rating) by Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. The colligation of the studied factors was assessed applying the Chaddock’s scale.  The results of the correlation analysis of the relationship between the group of indicators "The main management processes of the university" and the group of calculated indicators in the structure of the indicator "Content of the strategic plan" confirmed the correctness of the using the rating methodology by the CEDOS Center. The authors conclude that the management of an organization such as a university is advantageously carried out from the standpoint of the process approach

Global climate changes and the increasing impact of mankind on nature have a stressful effect on biological objects. In the current situation, it is necessary to develop technologies for protecting biological objects and correcting their condition. In the presence of several alternative corrective facilities, arises the task of developing an information technology for choosing the optimal one for a given biological object in a particular situation. In this work, mathematical and methodological support of such technology is offered. The logical rules for each of the possible corrective facilities are formulated. To synthesize logical rules, it is suggested to use the method of forming a probabilistic conclusion. A context diagram and a first level decomposition diagram of the information technology for choosing the corrective facilities under stress impact on the biological object, which describes the input, output, control actions, functional information processes, data storage devices, external entities and the flow of data flows between them. The work of the proposed information technology is based on eight interrelated subprocesses. The information-logical model of data is constructed that reflects all objects and events, the information about which it is necessary to store, and the connections between them. Based on the developed information technology, the structure of the information system is proposed, which will allow to automatize the procedure of selecting corrective facilities. The structure of the system is five interrelated modules that perform the functions of the system. The strengths and weaknesses of the development have been identified. The opportunities of development and possible threats that may arise when implementing it are analyzed. The use of the developed information technology on the example of the choice of anesthetic support for a traumatologic operation will allow to automate the process of choosing an anesthetic support for a traumatological operation, facilitate the work of a doctor and improve the quality of medical care for patients

The generalized structure of the electromagnetic field in the registration area is considered in the case of the solution of problems of remote sensing of the underlying surfaces. Examples of the existing radar and optical coherent devices are given. Analytical expressions for the electromagnetic field in the reception area when sounding is carried out in a near-field Fresnel region, in the assumption that the size of the field of registration and radiation is considerably less than a distance between them, are concretized. It is shown the main operations that are necessary for the recovery of coherent images in a near-field Fresnel region by the methods of multichannel signal processing. Research shows that as the amplitude-phase distribution of the registration field is necessary to choose the classical basic function of Fresnel transformation with the reversed sign in the exponent power. Formally, in an infinite range, the Fresnel transform is invertible, i.e. in the ideal case, the function can be completely restored. However physically to Fresnel's region satisfies area with finite sizes. From the analysis of the obtained operations over the received field, it follows that the radar or optical system forms an estimate of the coherent image in the form of a convolution of a true image of the underlying surface with an ambiguity function. Generally, this function contains two multipliers, one of which determines the resolution of recovery of the coherent image. In that specific case, when the linear sizes of the field of registration go to infinity, ambiguity function takes a form of delta function and the required image can be restored without distortions. It is offered to determine resolution by the width between first zeros of ambiguity function. For rectangular area ambiguity function has the form of two sinc functions which width is directly proportional to wavelength, to the height of sounding and is inversely proportional to the linear sizes of receiving area on the corresponding coordinates. Finally, it is mentioned that for the higher-quality coherent imaging with good resolution by the same receiving area it is necessary to perform scanning and movement in space

Authors: Benli Merve
Published: October 2018

Objective: The objective of this in-vitro study was to evaluate the marginal and internal fit of a lithium disilicate inlays fabricated by two CAD/CAM systems (extra-oral and intra-oral scanning), and conventional heat-press technique. Materials and methods: Mandibular first molars were used for inlay restorations in a typodont model. Three groups (n=12 each) of inlays were fabricated by Computer Aided Design/ Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology using intraoral and extraoral scanning devices, and conventional heat-press method. Replica technique was used to assess the discrepancies. Internal and marginal gaps were measured at 4 points on each side with stereomicroscope at 200x magnification. One-way variance analysis test (ANOVA) and paired-samples t-test were used for analyzing the results. Results: The fit values were statistically significantly influenced by the production method in total discrepancy comparisons (p= .000). Intraoral scanner group demonstrated the lowest marginal and internal gap values whereas conventional heat-press group showed the highest results. Statistically significant differences were found for fit values with respect to the groups (p<.001). Conclusion: Within the limitations of the study, restorations fabricated via complete digital workflow demonstrated better marginal and internal accuracy than silicone impressions with conventional heat-press technique.?

Decolonial Queer Feminism in Donna Haraway's ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ (1985)
Authors: Cox Lara
Published: October 2018

This article explores the queer qualities of feminist scientist Donna Haraway's ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ (1985). In the first part, the article investigates the similarities between ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ and the ideas circulating in queer theory, including the hybridity of identity, and the disruption of totalizing social categories such as ‘Gay man’ and ‘Woman’. In the second part, it is argued that ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ evinced a decolonial feminist form of queerness. The article references the African-American, Chicana and Asian-American feminist sociology, theory, literature and history that ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ takes up. The article does not wish to position Haraway's white-authored text as an authoritative voice on decolonial feminist queerness, instead arguing for the role of ‘A Cyborg Manifesto’ as a bibliographical work that readers may reference in their exploration of decolonial feminist beginnings of queer theory.
Queering Sexism and Whiteness with Marilyn Frye
Authors: Dahl Ulrika
Published: October 2018

This article discusses the importance of geopolitical specificity in discussions about waves in feminism and investigates the (proto-)queer potential of Marilyn Frye's second-wave work on sexism and white supremacy. It argues that Frye's understanding of sexism relies on the figure of the genderqueer individual and that Frye's critique of reproductive heterosexuality has implications for analyses of both sexism and racism. Finally, it asks what would happen to the contemporary #metoo movement in Sweden if it returned to Frye's radical lesbian feminism as emblematic of the second wave, rather than to the figure of the white, middle-class, heterosexual woman.
Beyond Utopia: Building Socialism Within and After Capitalism
Authors: Quirico Monica , Ragona Gianfranco
Published: October 2018

The article focuses on several figures who are particularly interesting in terms of identifying a radical critique of capitalism that does not shrink from the possibility of designing and imaging a different future. Following Michael Löwy, in our study we have identified relationships of ‘elective affinity’ between figures who might appear different and dissimilar, at least at first glance: the Bolshevik Alexandra Kollontai, the German communist Paul Mattick, the Italian Socialist Raniero Panzieri and the French social scientist Alain Bihr. After providing some biographical information, we analyze their respective paths to a socialism based on, and achieved through, self-organization and self-government.We do not intend to build a new tradition with this review of thinkers, most of whom were also political militants; rather, more modestly, we hope to suggest a path forward for both research and political activism. In order to show how significant the questions raised by these four intellectuals-militants still are even today, in the Conclusions we analyze the social and political experiment carried out by the Movement for a Democratic Society of the Rojava region in Syrian Kurdistan.
The role of syntax in the productivity of German N+N compounds. A diachronic corpus study
Authors: Kopf Kristin
Published: October 2018

This paper studies the morphological productivity of German N+N compounding patterns from a diachronic perspective. It argues that the productivity of compounds increases due to syntactic influence from genitive constructions ("improper compounds") in Early New High German. Both quantitative and qualitative productivity measures are adapted from derivational morphology and tested on compound data from the Mainz Corpus of (Early) New High German (1500–1710).

Korpusbasierte Untersuchung der Wortbildungsaffixe im Luxemburgischen. Technische Herausforderungen und linguistische Analyse am Beispiel der Produktivität
Authors: Sirajzade Joshgun
Published: October 2018

The project WBLUX (Wortbildung des moselfränkisch-luxemburgischen Raumes) at the University of Luxembourg aims at the investigation of Luxembourgish word formation through different text sorts and genres. In order to achieve this goal the compilation of an annotated corpus is needed. This article gives an example for benefits of using a corpus with annotations like parts of speech, lemmata and word formation affixes in the analysis of productivity of some selected word formation affixes of Luxembourgish. Then it describes how one can achieve such a corpus from a technical point of view. This includes the choice of corpus format, of a database platform and the designing of programs needed for the annotation process of word formation itself. This article also suggests new corpus linguistic approaches for research of word formation like analyzing the usage of word formation bases in the entire corpus or performing context analysis in order to determine semantical functions of each suffix.
