The last five decades have seen significant development in medical and biomedical technology and applications. The increase in research and development in fields such as biomechanics‚ biomaterials‚ cloning‚ tissue engineering‚ and medicine have spawned a whole new branch of philosophy aptly named bioethics. Bioethics‚ the study of the ethical and moral implications of biological research and biomedical advances‚ emerged in the early 1970s as its own discipline. As medical technology is improved

Types of aerial locomotion Animal aerial locomotion can be divided into two categories - powered and unpowered. In unpowered modes of locomotion‚ the animal uses on aerodynamics forces exerted on the body due to wind or falling through the air. In powered flight‚ the animal uses muscular power to generate aerodynamic forces. Animals using unpowered aerial locomotion cannot maintain altitude and speed due to unopposed drag‚ while animals using powered flight can maintain steady‚ level flight as

Although this description seems have the obvious preference towards animation in entertainment realms the technique of motion capture has many other areas of application‚ such as biomechanics‚ sport performance analysis‚ tele-robotics‚ ergonomics‚ entertainment and so on (Animation World Magazine). Throughout the remainder of this paper a more in depth look at the history‚ processes‚ types‚ new developments‚ and applications of motion

In 1977‚ a comprehensive study of road safety found that human error was the primary cause in 57% of all automobile accidents and was a contributing factor in over 90%. With this discussion‚ we must keep in mind that the overall attention MUST be kept on the road and on driving. Many of the accidents that happen are due to lack of enough attention and focus on the road and driving conditions because the driver’s attention and focus was on a less significant feature of the car such as the radio

impingement involves a spectrum of lesions of tissue in the shoulder‚ a working knowledge of its structural relationships will facilitate an understanding of the factors that result in abnormalities. This paper will provide knowledge of the anatomy‚ biomechanics‚ and correct rehabilitation involved with shoulder impingement. Impingement syndrome was originally described by Dr. Charles Neer as mechanical impingement of the supraspinatus muscle and the long head of the biceps tendon underneath the acromial
