Application of Instrumented Paddles in Measuring On-Water Kinetics of Front and Back Paddlers in K2 Sprint Kayaking Crews of Various Ability Levels

This study used instrumented paddles to obtain on-water kinetic variables of two-seater (K2) crews during sprint kayaking.A total of 74 male kayakers of various ability levels (national team: 9, recreational club: 38, school team: 27) comprising 39 K2 crews were recruited.Both the front and back paddlers were provided with an instrumented paddle to

On Properties of Distance-Based Entropies on Fullerene Graphs

In this paper, we study several distance-based entropy measures on fullerene graphs.These include the topological information content of a graph I a ( G ) , a degree-based entropy measure, the eccentric-entropy I f σ ( G ) , the Hosoya entropy H ( G ) and, finally, the boxes radial centric information entropy H e c c.We compare these measures

Reconciliation of measurements of hygroscopic growth and critical supersaturation of aerosol particles in central Germany

Aerosol physical, chemical and hygroscopic properties were measured in a range of airmasses during COPS (Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study) ground-based in June and July of 2007 at the Hornisgrinde mountain site in the Black Forest, Southwest Germany.Non-refractory aerosol composition was measured with an Aerosol Mass Spectr

Impact of a multifaceted and multidisciplinary intervention on pain, agitation and delirium management in an intensive care unit: an experience of a Canadian community hospital in conducting a quality improvement project

Background Clinical guidelines suggest that routine assessment, treatment, and prevention of pain, agitation, and delirium (PAD) is essential to improving patient outcomes as delirium is associated with increased mortality and morbidity.Despite the well-established improvements on patient outcomes, adherence to PAD guidelines is poor in community i
