Mechanical Properties and Thermal Decomposition Mechanism of Glycidyl Azide Polyol Energetic Thermoplastic Elastomer Binder with RDX Composite.

To improve the reinforcement effect between a binder and high solid filler in a propellant formula, grafting the bonding group into the binder to form a neutral polymeric is a practically novel approach to improving the interface properties of the propellant. In this work, a glycidyl azide polyol energetic thermoplastic elastomer binder with a -CN bonding group (GAP-ETPE) was synthesized, and the mechanical and thermal decomposition mechanism of GAP-ETPE with Hexogeon (RDX) model propellants were studied. The stress-strain results indicated that the tensile strength and strain of GAP-ETPE/RDX model propellants were 6.

Sensorized T-Shirt with Intarsia-Knitted Conductive Textile Integrated Interconnections: Performance Assessment of Cardiac Measurements during Daily Living Activities.

The development of smart wearable solutions for monitoring daily life health status is increasingly popular, with chest straps and wristbands being predominant. This study introduces a novel sensorized T-shirt design with textile electrodes connected via a knitting technique to a Movesense device. We aimed to investigate the impact of stationary and movement actions on electrocardiography (ECG) and heart rate (HR) measurements using our sensorized T-shirt.

Features of Thermomechanical Stability of Anionic-Cation Exchange Matrix "Polikon AC" on Viscose Non-Woven Materials.

The thermomechanical stability of the anion-cation exchange matrix "Polikon AC" on viscose nonwoven materials is investigated. In this work, a molecular model of a solvation environment for experimentally obtained "Polikon AC" mosaic membranes is refined. Mosaic membranes on a viscose fiber base were fabricated by the method of polycondensation filling.

Preparation, surface activity and colloidal properties of the ionic complex of chitosan with hexadecyl-oligo-oxyethylene hemisuccinate.

Chitosan polyelectrolyte complex with high surface activity has been prepared by salt complexation of chitosan with hexadecyl-oligo-oxyethylene hemisuccinate (HOS), an anionic surfactant. Physicochemical properties of chitosan-HOS complex can be explained by unusual structure of HOS which has the polyoxyethylene chain located between the polar carboxyl head group and the hydrophobic alkyl tail. Aqueous solutions of chitosan-HOS complex are structured systems with pronounced thixotropic properties.

Crosslinking of Chitosan with Dialdehyde Derivatives of Nucleosides and Nucleotides. Mechanism and Comparison with Glutaraldehyde.

In medical and pharmaceutical applications, chitosan is used as a component of hydrogels-macromolecular networks swollen in water. Chemical hydrogels are formed by covalent links between the crosslinking reagents and amino functionalities of chitosan. To date, the most commonly used chitosan crosslinkers are dialdehydes, such as glutaraldehyde (GA).

Time to Tango: expertise and contextual anticipation during action observation.

Predictive theories of action observation propose that we use our own motor system as a guide for anticipating and understanding other people's actions through the generation of context-based expectations. According to this view, people should be better in predicting and interpreting those actions that are present in their own motor repertoire compared to those that are not. We recorded high-density event-related potentials (ERPs: P300, N400 and Slow Wave, SW) and source estimation in 80 subjects separated by their level of expertise (experts, beginners and naïves) as they observed realistic videos of Tango steps with different degrees of execution correctness.

Effects of changes in arousal level by continuous light stimulus on contingent negative variation (CNV).

The purpose of the present study was to investigate an inverted-U relationship between contingent negative variation (CNV) and arousal level which was influenced by extraneous environment. As an extraneous stimulant, stimulation by light was adopted, and five levels of luminance conditions, 10 cd/m2, 100 cd/m2, 320 cd/ m2, 1,000 cd/m2, and 1,800 cd/m2 were provided randomly. Under five luminance conditions, seven subjects who had been accustomed a measurement of CNV executed simple reaction time tasks to evoke CNV.

The effects of preceded fatiguing on the relations between monopolar surface electromyogram and fatigue sensation.

Relations between surface electromyogram (EMG) and fatigue sensation was compared between the first fatiguing contraction and the following contractions with insufficient rests. Six male subjects performed static contractions of the elbow flexors at 8 and 13% MVC with the forearm semipronated and at 13% MVC with the forearm supinated. Contractions were repeated 6 (13% MVC) or (8% MVC) times (C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6) with rests of 5 min (13% MVC) or 10 min (8% MVC).

Difference in changes of surface EMG during low-level static contraction between monopolar and bipolar lead.

The changes in surface electromyogram(EMG) during sustained contractions were compared between monopolar and bipolar lead. Ten subjects performed static elbow flexion at contraction levels of 10 and 40% of maximum voluntary contraction(MVC). Seven subjects performed static knee extension at contraction levels of 3, 8, and 15%MVC.

The relationships between lumbar curves, pelvic tilt and joint mobilities in different sitting postures in young adult males.

The lumbar lordosis and pelvic tilt of twenty male subjects were measured in standing and in three different sitting postures with the trunk-thigh angles of 120 (sitting A), 90 (sitting B), and 60 (sitting C) degs and the knee angle was constant at 90 deg. Ten more male subjects participated in the supplemental study, in which additional condition of the knee angle was employed in postures of the trunk-thigh angles of 90 and 60 degs. Some joint mobilities were also measured to investigate the relations of the mobilities to lumbar lordosis and pelvic tilt.

Effects of the direction and distance of horizontal arm movements on local muscular strain--a fundamental study on the teller workplace in bank.

This study was conducted to examine the relative differences in the muscular strain of the hand-arm-shoulder system in the repetitive arm movements which would directly depend on the layout of devices at teller counter. The subjects were five young male adults. The manual handling task was standardized and the repetition frequency was in self-pace.

Changes in relations between surface electromyogram and fatigue level by repeating fatiguing static contractions.

Changes in relations between surface electromyogram (EMG) and fatigue level estimated by fatigue sensation were studied during repeated fatiguing static contractions. Six male subjects performed elbow flexion of 13-15%MVC. Contractions were repeated 5 times (C1, C2, C3, C4, C5) with 5 min intervals of rests.

Effects of contraction level on the changes of surface electromyogram during fatiguing static contractions.

Changes of the surface electromyogram (EMG) during a fatiguing static contraction were studied at contraction levels of 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50% of the maximum voluntary contraction (MVC). Seven subjects performed the static contractions of the elbow flexion and 6 subjects performed those of the planter flexion. Bipolar surface EMG was led from biceps brachii (BB) in the elbow flexion and from soleus in the planter flexion.
