Authors: Freeman Matthew , Stewart Debra , Cunningham Charles E. , Gorter Jan Willem 
Published: August 2018

AbstractThe transition to adulthood is a developmental phase which occurs as young people move from adolescence into adulthood. Young people with disabilities, including cerebral palsy (CP), and their families have reported challenges during the transition to adulthood because they are required to move to adult supports and services, which are often fragmented and bring about new questions and expectations to find necessary supports. Young people and their parents have been found to lack information about where to find services in adulthood, how to access the services and what to ask during the transitional process. The aim of this scoping review was to explore the information needs of young people with CP and their families during the transition to adulthood. The goal is to map the current published evidence within the transition to adulthood literature base to explore what is known about information needs during the transition to adulthood of young people with CP and their parents. This review seeks to synthesize what is known about information content, timing, methods of provision and delivery. Databases searched were OVID Medline, CINAL, ERIC, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Social Science Abstracts and Sociological Abstracts. Initially 675 articles were retrieved. Four hundred and forty-two articles were selected for title review. Two hundred and five articles remained for abstract review. Seventeen articles were included for full-text review. Eleven articles were included in this review. Data were organized into five themes: (1) identified information needs during the transition to adulthood (content), (2) identified recommended providers of information during the transition to adulthood (who), (3) identified delivery methods of information during the transition to adulthood (how), (4) identified timing of information delivery of information during the transition to adulthood (when) and (5) location of information provided during the transition to adulthood (where). This review found that young people with CP, their families and adult providers all possess information needs during the transition to adulthood. Young people with CP and their families seek information about what adult services will look like and how to access supports. Adult providers require information about CP. Youth with CP prefer individualized information be delivered to them when needed rather than presented in group sessions or via paper handout. Other recommendations included the development of parent support networks to assist parents in the transition to adulthood. The opportunity to learn from real-life experiences was also viewed as an important source of information as well as method to provide information.

Published: August 2018

Abstract
The present study focuses on the fabrication and analyses of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) based films blended with polymers, such as starch and protein. The aim is to improve the moisture absorption, solubility, mechanical and thermal properties of PVA by blending it with various polymers. The thermal cross-linking of the films has been studied by heating the films at 120°C for 4 h. The result shows that PVA was completely soluble in water, while post-blending solubility and moisture absorption of blended films decreased. The tensile strength of blended films was significantly higher (4%–29%) as compared to neat PVA, while thermally cross-linked films showed much higher strength (8%–174%). Blended films were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to confirm the formation of hydrogen bonds. Thermogravimetric analysis showed the increase in degradation temperature post-blending as compared to neat PVA. The viscoelastic behavior of the material as well as glass transition temperature was studied using dynamic mechanical analysis. Creep and recovery behavior were examined to study the effect of stress and temperature on creep strain. The biodegradability of the blended films was increased post-blending. This study showed that PVA based blend films can replace non-biodegradable plastics and hence are necessary for the development of environmentally friendly materials.

Abstract

Background
Many publications described sodium thiosulfate used to prevent the renal toxicity induced by cisplatin hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. After around 60 or 90 minutes of hyperthermic chemotherapy, cisplatin was drained and then, sodium thiosulfate was infused by intravenous route. Sodium thiosulfate is used in two steps: a first step, at 9 g/m2 in 250 mL of 0.9 % sodium chloride over 10 minutes followed by a second step, at 12 g/m2 in 1000 mL of 0.9 % sodium chloride over 6 hours. The purpose of this work was to study the stability of sodium thiosulfate at 16 mg/mL in 0.9 % sodium chloride polyolefin bags 1000 mL and at 72 mg/mL in 0.9 % sodium chloride polyolefin bags 250 mL, at 25 °C, protected or unprotected from light.

Methods
Chemical stability was analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to a photodiode array detector after preparation and after 6-hour or 24-hour storage. The method was validated according to the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH). Physical stability was evaluated by visual and subvisual inspection (turbidimetry by UV spectrophotometry at 550 nm). Three bags for each condition were prepared. On each time of the analysis, three samples were prepared for each bag and analysed by HPLC. pH values were evaluated on each moment of the analysis.

Results
Sodium thiosulfate solutions diluted in 0.9 % sodium chloride at 16 and 72 mg/mL retained more than 95 % of the initial concentration during 24 hours. Concerning pH measurements, the maximum variation was 0.24 pH unit. No visual modification such as colour change, precipitation or gas formation was observed. The absorbance at 550 nm obtained for each sample was less than 0.010 AU.

Conclusions
Sodium thiosulfate solutions at 16 mg/mL in 1000 mL 0.9 % sodium chloride and at 72 mg/mL in 250 mL 0.9 % sodium chloride are stable physically and chemically over a period of 24 hours at 25 °C, with or without protection from light. This stability study allows the use of sodium thiosulfate in renal protection protocols during cisplatin hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Published: August 2018

AbstractThe drilling process of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) is the main secondary processing in the entire production cycle. However, there is no standard theory that could be used to estimate the hole quality and to quantify the assessment. Therefore, in this article, several influential factors of drilling quality, such as drilling parameters and materials, were utilized to establish the classification tree model. A comprehensive evaluation model [three-dimensional (3D) evaluation factor] was presented to measure and quantify the quality of the hole. Then a series of experiments were designed based on existing conditions. Further, a mathematical software (Origin) was used to fit and analyze the relationships of the drilling parameters and the 3D evaluation factor. Then a user-friendly drilling database system of CFRP was established based on the historical data of drilling experiments and the fitting function. In addition, in order to contrast the optimization results of the fitting function, the drilling experiments have been conducted, and the results have verified that the drilling database system could optimally predict the drilling schemes with a minor error.

Published: August 2018

Abstract
The face-to-face collision of ion acoustic solitons (IASs) in superthermal plasmas composed of positive and negative ion fluids and superthermal electrons is investigated for different geometrical configurations. For the generic case, the extended Poincaré-Lighthill-Kuo (EPLK) analysis is employed to obtain the extended Korteweg-de Vries (EKdV) equations and phase shift equations. The non-linear propagation and the face-to-face collision of bright and dark IASs are studied. In addition, when the concentration of ion reaches the critical value, the EPLK method is applied to obtain the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations and the phase shift relations, which govern the excitation and the face-to-face collision of bright and dark IASs. Appropriately, the effects of several parameters such as the electron concentration, the superthermality of electrons and the diversity in the system’s geometry under consideration on the trajectories of IASs after the collision are discussed. Numerical calculations lead to some highlights on the properties of bright and dark IASs (e.g. in laboratory plasmas such as laser–matter/plasma interaction experiments and in astrophysical environments such as lower part of magnetosphere).
Parametric Instability of a Rotating Axially Loaded FG Cylindrical Thin Shell Under Both Axial Disturbances and Thermal Effects
Authors: Li X. , Xu Q. , Li Y.H. 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
Parametric instability of a rotating functionally graded (FG) cylindrical thin shell with axial compression under various boundary conditions is studied in this article. In particular, the shell is subjected to both axial periodic displacement disturbances and a thermal environment. The initial hoop tension and Coriolis effects due to rotation are also considered. The coupled dynamic equations of the shell under multiple conditions are formulated based on Love’s thin-shell theory. The instability boundaries of the shell with different boundary conditions considering thermal factors, axial disturbances, and other system parameters are obtained analytically under the case of primary and combination resonance; numerical illustrations are also given. It is found that high temperature weakens the stability of the system, while axial disturbances show stronger influence on the instability regions of the shell compared to other parameters such as thermal factors and the angular rotation velocity.

Abstract
A new modification of the homometallic silver(I) cluster [Ag4Br4(PPh3)4] has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, UV/Vis and IR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The tetramer shows a polycyclic structure with a chair conformation. The bromine atoms adopt μ
2- and μ
3-bridging modes. The shortest Ag–Ag distance in the cluster is 3.159(2) Å, which indicates significant Ag–Ag interactions. A supramolecular structure is arranged by hydrogen bonds (C–H···Br). Cyclic voltammograms of the cluster indicate a quasi-reversible Ag+/Ag couple. The fluorescence properties of the ligand and the Ag(I) cluster were studied in the solid state. The emission peaks of the Ag(I) cluster are attributed to ligand-centered luminescence.

AbstractRice, PE, Gurchiek, RD, and McBride, JM. Physiological and biomechanical responses to an acute bout of high kicking in dancers.J Strength Cond Res32(10): 2954–2961, 2018—High-kick precision competitive dance involves the integration of kicking inline, jumping, and turning during a 3-minute routine and causes a disturbance to both aerobic and anaerobic systems. However, no known study has quantified the effect of a hick-kick–specific protocol on blood lactate (BL), heart rate (HR), and countermovement jump (CMJ) performance. A group of adolescent high-kick dancers (n= 20; age = 15.0 ± 1.8 years; height = 161.5 ± 8.2 cm; body mass = 56.3 ± 11.0 kg; and dance team/weight lifting experience = 2.1 ± 0.9 years) participated in this investigation. Participants' BL was collected, and 3 CMJ trials were performed before (PRE) and after (POST) completing the high-kick protocol. The high-kick protocol consisted of intermittent running and kicking in place for a total of 1:45 at a tempo of 160 b·min−1, while average and peak HR (HRavg; HRpeak) were recorded. Jump height (JH), maximal trunk flexion (MTF), take-off angle (TOA), and relative peak power (PP) were determined from PRE and POST CMJ trials. During kicking, HRavgand HRpeak (n= 13) were 172.4 ± 15.7 b·min−1and 207.0 ± 23.0 b·min−1, respectively. Dancers' (n= 20) BL significantly (p≤ 0.05) increased from 1.5 ± 0.5 to 8.6 ± 1.5 mmol·L−1, and JH and PP significantly decreased from 0.42 ± 0.08 to 0.36 ± 0.04 m and 41.3 ± 5.5 to 38.5 ± 4.0 W·kg−1, respectively, from PRE to POST. No significant changes occurred in MTF and TOA measurements from PRE to POST. The demands introduced during a high-kick–specific protocol can therefore be recognized as a metabolic and mechanical stimulus for fatigue; however, esthetics seem to be unaffected. Such findings may indicate that this modality of dance necessitates supplemental strength and conditioning training similar to other sports to sustain the loads of high-kick dance.

Abstract
Herrington, L, Ghulam, H, and Comfort, P. Quadriceps strength and functional performance after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in professional soccer players, at time of return to sport. J Strength Cond Res 35(3): 769–775, 2021—Poor quadriceps strength has been associated with poor outcome after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR). This study aims to assess quadriceps strength, muscle inhibition, and hop test performance in professional soccer players after ACLR. Fifteen professional soccer players (age 22.3 ± 3.1 years, body mass 81.0 ± 11.5 kg, and height 1.75 ± 0.1 m) who had undergone ACLR participated. Isometric, eccentric, and concentric quadriceps strength was assessed, along with quadriceps inhibition and single and cross-over hop performance, at the time of return to full-time unrestricted play. In comparison with the uninjured leg, the ACLR leg demonstrated large significant (d ≥ 0.84, p < 0.01) deficits in isometric, eccentric, and concentric quadriceps strength, quadriceps inhibition, and hop distance. Over 80% of the players failed to exceed the limb symmetry criteria of ≥90% for strength tests, although 75% of the cohort passed the ≥90% criteria for hop tests. The outcome from ACLR in professional soccer players who received full-time intensive rehabilitation has not previously been reported in detail. There were significant deficits in quadriceps strength at the time of return to sport, whereas hop testing, a commonly used outcome measure, failed to show the same levels of deficit. These deficits in quadriceps function may have implications for the development of ongoing knee symptoms and risk of future ACL injury. If this proves to be the case, then it would seem that greater attention should be paid to re-establishing full quadriceps strength before returning to unrestricted sporting activity.

Abstract
Jalilvand, F, Banoocy, NK, Rumpf, MC, and Lockie, RG. Relationship between body mass, peak power, and power-to-body mass ratio on sprint velocity and momentum in high-school football players. J Strength Cond Res 33(7): 1871–1877, 2019—The ability to rapidly shift one's body mass horizontally or vertically is common within American football irrespective of field position, and the capacity to generate power is a favorable physical quality. This requires analysis in high-school football players, especially considering the body mass disparities that exist in this population. Sixteen high-school players (7 backs and 9 linemen) completed the vertical jump (VJ) to determine jump height, peak anaerobic power measured in watts (PAPw), and power-to-body mass ratio (P:BM), and a 36.58-m sprint (0–4.57, 0–9.14, and 0–36.58-m intervals) to determine sprint velocity and momentum. Independent-samples t-tests (p < 0.05) determined differences in these variables between the backs and linemen. Pearson's correlations (r; p < 0.05) computed relationships between body mass, VJ height, PAPw, P:BM, with 36.58-m sprint velocity and momentum on the pooled data. Linemen were heavier, and slower in the 36.58-m sprint, but had greater PAPw and sprint momentum compared with backs. Body mass exhibited negative relationships to velocity across all sprint intervals (r = −0.55 to 0.70), and positive relationships with momentum across all intervals (r = 0.95–0.96). The VJ correlated with sprint velocity across all intervals (r = 0.51–0.83), but not momentum. PAPw was positively correlated with body mass and momentum across all intervals (r = 0.77–0.85), but not velocity. There were significant correlations between P:BM with velocity (r = 0.51–0.85) and momentum (r = −0.53–0.62) across all intervals. Heavier high-school players could focus on improving P:BM to positively influence jumping ability and sprint velocity.

Published: August 2018

Abstract
Physical modeling using transparent rock or soil surrogates and optical measurement is an effective way to obtaining the displacement and stresses within test specimens in geotechnical engineering. To apply the prospective modeling method to investigating the mechanism of excavation-induced failure of rock surrounding tunnels, a novel test system is developed for modeling tunnel excavation with transparent rock surrogate. The system includes three parts: one transparent acrylic chamber and its reinforcing units for containing scaled models, a dead-weight loading device consisting of levers and pulleys, and a three-dimension optical stressometer made of polyurethane block and fiber Bragg gratings. The test system is then employed to visualize the excavation of a round tunnel and some favorable results are gained. To some extent, the work in this article improves the physical modeling techniques and provides an effective method for the modeling research in rock tunnel engineering.
