- Terminals with
high force contact.
Not exact matches
This past weekend, the MInnesota State
High School League took an unprecedented step of changing the rules mid-season, by stiffening the penalties on three of the most violent and dangerous infractions in hockey: checking from behind, boarding and
contact to the head will now result in an automatic five - minute «major» against the offending player resulting in ejection and
forcing his team to play short - handed for five minutes, regardless of how many times it is scored upon during the ensuing power play.
One way, I believe, to address the problem of under - reporting and increase the chances a concussion will be identified early on the sports sideline may be to rely less on athletes themselves to remove themselves from games or practices by reporting concussion symptoms (which the most recent study shows occurs at a shockingly low rate, [9] or on game officials and sideline observers to observe signs of concussion and call for a concussion assessment, but to employ technology to increase the chances that a concussion will be identified by employing impact sensors designed to monitor head impact exposure in terms of the
force of hits (both linear and rotational), number, location, and cumulative impact, in real time at all levels of football, and in other helmeted and non-helmeted
contact and collision sports, where practical, to help identify
high - risk impacts and alert medical personnel on the sideline so they can consider performing a concussion assessment.
The results of at least two recent studies, however, suggest that reductions in full -
contact practices can be accompished safely without putting players at additional risk, while researchers continue looking for the head trauma «holy grail»: a threshold - whether it is number of hits per week, over the course of the season, of a certain
force, or to a certain part of the helmet (e.g. facemask, top of the head) above which players are at an unacceptably
high risk of permanent brain injury.
No sooner did the UPMC study issue, however, then came a second study by the Virginia Tech - Wake Forest researchers [4]- this one of an older group of 9 - to 12 - year - old football players - which found that reducing the number of head hits in practice did not lead to
higher force impacts during games, precisely as they had predicted would be the case if the amount of
contact was reduced during practice, and pouring a significant amountg of cold water on the UPMC study.
Florida governor Rick Scott (R.)
contacted the Department of Education in the immediate aftermath of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas
High School shooting to request someone from the agency be part of his task
force on school safety, but the department was unable to send anybody with actual authority.
The lumen elongates along the direction of minimal
force, as
higher intercellular
force would squeeze the
contacting cell surfaces together and prevent extension of the lumens in that direction.
Several theories predict the relation between
contact area and normal
force, but so far these theories could not be tested with
high precision.
Although maximal conditioning and
contact practices are generally lower
force and speed than sprint work, they entail a
high degree of fatigue and psychological stress which have to be recovered from and which generally can not be performed on consecutive days, so they are included here.
Ground
contact times as short as 80ms have been observed in the
highest level track athletes (Beneke & Taylor, 2010), which is below the 125ms required to reach peak concentric
force (Tillin et al. 2012a).
High lateral stiffness in the rear axle also helps with initial turn - in because lateral
forces at the tire
contact patches build very quickly.
The driver dummy's head
contact didn't produce
high forces, but the fact that the
contact occurred means the head barely escaped severe impact.
Inherent in larger vehicles with a
higher centre of gravity, this system instantly counteracts lateral rolling
forces when cornering and ensures maximum tyre
contact to deliver class - leading cabin stability, ride comfort and exceptional handling.
Also, the dog is
forced to have almost continual
contact with the ground in the chaining area, which may have a
high concentration of parasite larvae.
- Iizuka has received a ton of requests from fans to have their own original characters appear in Sonic games - while that couldn't happen, Sonic
Forces» custom character recognizes that fan desire - the avatar was created with the idea of «making straight
high - speed action» - this time the concept is that all three styles (Modern, Classic, Avatar) would be
high - speed based - make selections for the face, mouth, body color, and gender of custom characters - each species will also have their own unique skills, such as wolves being able to pull nearby rings - you can't change custom characters in the middle of the game - there is some sort of feature that's unlocked after you've cleared the game once related to this - the new avatar style will have a speedy and rhythmic style like Modern Sonic, but also different vectors from Sonic - this includes differences in timing for pressing buttons, or the Wisps giving the avatar trickier movements - the story aims to depict heroes that would feel like Sonic - by controlling different characters, the devs hope to show a story that extends to explaining the world setting as well - the story concept has been «Hero Army vs. Eggman's Army» from the start - when wondering who should be made playable among the heroes, the idea came up for Classic Sonic - the character setting for the avatar is a civilian in an area occupied by Eggman who stands up and fights together with Sonic - during stages, you'll hear radio
contact from partners like Tails and Amy - Sonic and the rest of the gang form a resistance to stand against Eggman's army, so they relay information from headquarters - boss characters like Chaos and Metal Sonic will appear in Eggman's army - details on the new character (Infinite) are being kept secret - the main part of the storyline is that Eggman gathers strong enemies in the past to form an all mighty army - some people might be wondering why Shadow is on the enemy's side, but they can find out more by experiencing the story - the team thinks Japanese fans are taking a liking to the serious story and character customization features - there were some struggles with the new engine in early stages, but now they've moved to a smooth development process - the team knew they wanted to bring the game to Nintendo's new console before they even knew it was the Switch - the Switch info came to them during the middle of the game's development - SEGA knew Nintendo fans would want to play Sonic's new game, which is why they personally worked to bring it to Switch - SEGA plans to show the game in Japan at Tokyo Game Show 2017 in September - the team is also working on providing new information, including news that would be unique to Japan

And older climate models did not include dynamic ice sheet vulnerabilities — like
high latent - heat ocean water coming into
contact with the submerged faces of sea - fronting glaciers, the ability of surface melt water to break up glaciers by pooling into cracks and
forcing them apart (hydrofracturing), or the innate rigidity and frailty of steep ice cliffs which render them susceptible to rapid toppling.
Many were taken back by the
high cost of the new Moto Z
Force, but there are some differences between the Moto Z
Force and Moto Z to justify the
higher cost — the Z
Force offers a larger battery, the ShatterShield display, and better camera than the Moto Z. Moto Mod is a new term introduced by these devices — a much easier way to add modules to your device by simply snapping them on the back of the phone via magnets — which means small
contact points are showing when no mods are in use.
