Current Views of Scapular Dyskinesis and its Possible Clinical Relevance by Aaron Sciascia, W. Ben Kibler

“…These conflicting views have not provided clear recommendations for optimal evaluation and treatment methods. The authors’ experience and scholarship related to scapular function and dysfunction support that scapular dyskinesis is an impairment that has causative factors, that a pathoanatomical approach should not be the primary focus but should be considered as part of a comprehensive examination, that a qualitative examination for determining the presence or absence of a scapular contribution to shoulder dysfunction is currently the best option widely available to clinicians, and that rehabilitation approaches should be reconsidered where enhancing motor control becomes the primary focus rather than increasing strength.…”

Rehabilitation Following Posterior Shoulder Stabilization by Brandon T Goldenberg, Pamela Goldsten, Lucca Lacheta, Justin W Arner, Matthew T Provencher, Peter J Millett

“…In most cases, primary surgical treatment for posterior shoulder instability—a posterior labral repair—is indicated for those patients who have failed conservative management and demonstrate persistent functional limitations. In order to optimize surgical success and return to a prior level of function, a comprehensive and focused rehabilitation program is crucial. …”

Cooperative Guidance of Seeker-Less Missiles for Precise Hit by Jianbo Zhao, Fenfen Xiong

“…Within the proposed cooperative scenario, the classic leader-follower framework is utilized, and a two-stage cooperative guidance law is derived for the seeker-less missile. Linear-quadratic optimal control and biased proportional navigation guidance (PNG) are employed to develop this two-stage cooperative guidance law to minimize the control cost in the first stage and to reduce the maximum acceleration command in the second stage when the acceleration command is continuous. …”
