Purpose: To determine the effect of wearing a phase-change cooling vest in elite female rugby sevens athletes during (1) a simulated match-day warm-up in hot conditions prior to a training session and (2) a prematch warm-up ...
Changes in core temperature during an elite female rugby sevens tournament
(
Human Kinetics Publishers Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Purpose: To characterize player core temperature (Tc) across a World Rugby Women's Sevens Series tournament day (WRWSS) and determine the efficacy of commonly employed cold-water-immersion (CWI) protocols. Methods: Tc was ...
Optimization of Viscoelastic Metamaterials for Vibration Attenuation Properties
(
World Scientific
, 2020 , Article)
Metamaterials (MMs) are composites that are artificially engineered to have unconventional mechanical properties that stem from their microstructural geometry rather than from their chemical composition. Several studies ...
Investigating the effect of using softer rail-pads on ground-borne vibration from underground railways
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2023 , Article)
In this study, a series of vibration measurements were performed on a section of one of the lines of the Doha Metro to explore the effect of changing rail-pads from conventional higher stiffness under-rail pads to lower ...
Fault classification using convolutional neural networks and color channels for time-frequency analysis of acoustic emissions
(
SAGE Publications Inc.
, 2023 , Article)
We present a novel method for real-time fault classification using the time history of acoustic emissions (AEs) recorded from a lab-scale gas turbine operating under normal and faulty conditions across multiple turbine ...
Using probabilistic neural networks for modeling metal fatigue and random vibration in process pipework
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2022 , Article)
Many experiments are usually needed to quantify probabilistic fatigue behavior in metals. Previous attempts used separate artificial neural network (ANN) to calculate different probabilistic ranges which can be computationally ...
