    The Sliding Filament Theory In 1954‚ scientists published two groundbreaking papers describing the molecular basis of muscle contraction. These papers described the position of myosin and actin filaments at various stages of contraction in muscle fibers and proposed how this interaction produced contractile force. Using high-resolution microscopy‚ A. F. Huxley and R. Niedergerke (1954) and H. E. Huxley and J. Hanson (1954) observed changes in the sarcomeres as muscle tissue shortened. They observed

    fascicles and finally to the muscle fiber ( cell) inside of the muscle fibers of the myofibril‚ inside of that is the those and thin filements. The thin filament is called actin and the thick filament called myosin. The actin is connected  to the z line.the actin and myosin stick up in between each other‚ the myosin has two separate actin filaments on the ends of it‚ this whole little section is called sarcomeres. in the muscle fiber these sections of  sarcomere pair up next to each other so that the

    The sliding filament theory is used to explain how muscles contract‚ this is shown by the 5 stages of the sliding filament theory. When the muscle contracts‚ the myosin filaments attach themselves to similar actin filaments‚ this attachment causes formation in chemical bonds this then forms the cross bridges. Myosin and actin molecules are made in a series‚ this series is what makes up a muscle cell. This basic module is called the sarcomere‚ these are what gives the tissue of a skeletal muscle its

    Sliding Window Protocol Introduction: Sliding window protocol is used where a reliable transmitting of frame is required. It relies on packeting the frame queue to a definable window size which is provided to sender and receiver. Sliding window protocol defines maximum transmitter window size‚ Ws which is always one less than the sequence number. How transmitter window is defined: It is contains the data that are ready to be send. The lower limit in transmitter window which is waiting for

    Evaluation I think my evidence is reliable because the anomalies in my first results were the same as the ones in my second results. The graph made a straight line with a gradient that gets deeper that is what I predicted. To improve my experiment to make it even more reliable I could use a more accurate ammeter and a larger range of results as well as more checks. The ammeter I use could be more than two decimal places‚ and I could get a lot of results and put them on one graph to

    1.1 Introduction In recent years‚ the sliding mode control system has been widely used for robust control of nonlinear systems (the author Slotine and Li‚ 1991). The sliding mode control‚ based on the theory of variable structure systems‚ has attracted a lot of investigate on control systems for the last two decades. A comprehensive survey on variable structure control was given in Hung and other. (1993). The salient advantage of sliding mode control is robustness against structured and unstructured
