Interview with Julia Mobley Irwin
Julia Mobley Irwin
Jan 01, 0001
In her November 9, 1976 interview with Sally Tyler, Julia Mobley Irwin details her life as a day student in the early 1900s. Irwin recalls her favorite classes, describes uniforms, insists that there was never a swimming pool at...

A biomechanical approach to evaluate overload and specificity characteristics within physical preparation exercises

An essential component of any physical preparation programme is the selection of training exercises to facilitate desired performance outcomes, with practitioners balancing the principles of sports training to inform exercise...

Contributions of the non-kicking-side arm to rugby place-kicking technique
To investigate non-kicking-side arm motion during rugby place kicking, five experienced male kickers performed trials under two conditions, both with an accuracy requirement but one with an additional maximal distance demand....

Eight Weeks of Self-Resisted Neck Strength Training Improves Neck Strength in Age-Grade Rugby Union Players

BACKGROUND: Greater neck strength is associated with fewer head and neck injuries. Neck-strengthening programs are commonly burdensome, requiring specialist equipment or significant time commitment, which are barriers to...

IPR Policy Brief - Climate change regulation
Regulators’ efforts to shape business responses to climate change centre on the development of CO2 markets. These are designed to deliver significant CO2 emission reductions at the lowest possible cost to industry. However, the...

Joint kinetic determinants of starting block performance in athletic sprinting
The aim of this study was to explore the relationships between lower limb joint kinetics, external force production and starting block performance (normalised average horizontal power, NAHP). Seventeen male sprinters (100 m PB...
Lower limb joint kinetics in the starting blocks and first stance in athletic sprinting
The aim of this study was to examine lower limb joint kinetics during the block and first stance phases in athletic sprinting. Ten male sprinters (100 m PB, 10.50 ± 0.27 s) performed maximal sprint starts from blocks. External...

A biomechanical comparison of initial sprint acceleration performance and technique in an elite athlete with cerebral palsy and able-bodied sprinters
Cerebral palsy is known to generally limit range of motion and force producing capability during movement. It also limits sprint performance, but the exact mechanisms underpinning this are not well known. One elite male T36...
Imputation versus prediction
Imputation is a powerful statistical method that is distinct from the predictive modelling techniques more commonly used in drug discovery. Imputation uses sparse experimental data in an incomplete dataset to predict...

First and Second Step Characteristics of Amputee and Able-Bodied Sprinters
Context: In sprint events, the first 2 steps are used to accelerate the center of mass horizontally and vertically. Amputee athletes cannot actively generate energy with their running-specific prosthesis. It is likely that...

Genetically raised serum bilirubin levels and lung cancer
Background: Moderately raised serum bilirubin levels are associated with lower rates of lung cancer, particularly among smokers. It is not known whether these relationships reflect antioxidant properties or residual confounding....

Constraints on the Spindown of Fully Convective M Dwarfs Using Wide Field Binaries
Abstract M dwarfs remain active over longer timescales than their Sunlike counterparts, with potentially devastating implications for the atmospheres of their planets. However, the...
