Kinematic analysis of the back squat at different load intensities in powerlifters and weightlifters by Valerio Giustino, Domenico Savio Salvatore Vicari, Domenico Savio Salvatore Vicari, Flavia Figlioli, Flavia Figlioli, Marco Gervasi, Eneko Fernández Peña, Naima Schifaudo, Mattia Tedesco, Patrik Drid, Antonio Paoli, Giuseppe Battaglia, Giuseppe Battaglia, Antonino Bianco, Antonino Patti

“…., 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100%) of the 1-RM. An action camera recorded the execution of each BS trial in the sagittal plane and, afterward, the videos were analyzed by measuring the range of motion (ROM) of hip, knee, and ankle for the angular kinematics, and the timing, distances, speeds, and accelerations of the barbell for the linear kinematics.ResultsRegarding the angular kinematics, no significant differences were found in the parameters in the starting and ending positions among the 5 trials, while a significant decrease was found in the hip relative angle (p = 0.026) in the maximum flexion position as load intensity increased. …”

A Review on the Friction Stir Brazing for Joining Dissimilar Materials by Akeel Dhahir Subhi

“…Sound interfacial bonding can be observed in the central zone of FSBed joints, where intermetallic compounds (IMCs) can be formed by direct diffusion among the dissimilar workpieces after extrusion of liquid phase rather than by mechanical mixing or solidification of braze material. Increasing the transverse speed at a constant rotational speed has an influence on the peak temperature, but it remarkably reduces the holding time owing to the increased cooling rate. …”
