Abstract Background Many work places require standing for prolonged periods of time and are potentially damaging to health, with links to musculoskeletal disorders and acute trauma from workplace accidents.Footwear provides the only interaction between the body and the ground and therefore a potential means to impact musculoskeletal disorders.Howev
BACKGROUND:The use of DNA barcodes for the identification of described species is one of the least controversial and most promising applications of barcoding.There is no consensus, however, as to what constitutes an appropriate identification standard and most barcoding efforts simply attempt to LED pair a query sequence with reference sequences an
Virtual environments are an important aspect of serious games for heritage.However navigable three-dimensional (3D) environments can be costly and resource-intensive to create and for users to run.In this paper, we propose an alternative approach using “constrained virtual environments”, which present an environment through a series of reduced
Hammers and Mallets Children from developed and developing countries differ in their body size and shape due to marked differences across their life history caused by social, economic and cultural differences which are also linked to their motor performance (MP).We used allometric models to identify size/shape characteristics associated with MP tes
This study primarily identifies the knowledge gaps that must be filled to apply conceptualised methods for rising and benchmarking productivity levels of various construction operational tasks.Accordingly, this study intended to evaluate labour productivity in relation to labour performance using potential apprenticeship instruments and systems.Com
