Five male junior pole vaulters completed full vaulting to 90%-95% personal best height. These trials were categorized into successful and failed trials. Step length and the distance from toe to the planting box were obtained using a two dimensional direct linear transformation procedure. In successful trials, standard deviations of the toe-box distance （SDTB） at the last step and take-off of were significantly smaller than those of failed trials （P 〈 0.05）. We observed a clear difference in gait regulation strategy between successful and failed trials, thereby suggesting that to minimize the fluctuations of the toe-box distance immediately before the take-off is a key gait regulation strategy for successful pole vault performance.展开更多

Fingerprint minutiae data and the cryptographic key are merged together by a multivariable linear function. First, the minutiae data are bound by a set of random data through the linear function. The number of the function’s variables is determined by the required number of matched minutiae. Then, a new key de- rived from the random data is used to encrypt the cryptographic key. Lastly, the binding data are protected using fuzzy vault scheme. The proposed scheme provides the system with the flexibility to use changeable number of minutiae to bind/recover the protected key and a unified method regardless of the length of the key.展开更多

Incompressible visco-fluid model was introduced, and the standard k - two equation model and semi-implicit method for pressure linked equation （SIMPLE） were used to describe the flow turbulence. Furthermore, the structural dynamic equation was set up, which is solved by Newmark-fl method. And several sort of wind-induced vibration coefficients such as the wind-induced vibration coefficient corresponding to the nodal displacement responses and wind loads were suggested. In the numerical simulation where the SGLV consisting of the cylindrical sectors with different curved surface was chosen as the example, the influence on the relative wind pressure distribution and structural wind-induced vibration responses of the closed or open SGLV caused by such parameters as the number of cylindrical sectors, structural curvature and the ratio of rise to span was investigated. Finally, some useful conclusions on the local wind pressure distribution on the structural surface and the wind-induced vibration coefficients of SGLV were developed.展开更多

However, all previous studies assumed that fingerprint features were pre-aligned, and automatic alignment in the fuzzy vault domain is a challenging issue.In this paper, an auto-aligned sharing fuzzy fingerprint vault based on a geometric hashing technique is proposed to address automatic alignment in the multiple-control fuzzy vault with a compartmented structure. The vulnerability analysis and experimental results indicate that, compared with original multiplecontrol fuzzy vault, the auto-aligned sharing fuzzy fingerprint vault can improve the security of the system.展开更多

Vaginal hysterectomy is preferred surgery for uterovaginal prolapsed. Vaginal hysterectomy has advantages over abdominal hysterectomy. Post hysterectomy hematomas are responsible for serious morbidity. Ultrasound is an accurate diagnostic tool and so Computed tomography. Conservative management, analgesia and antibiotics will work in small hematoma, but the significant sized hematoma needs surgical drainage and the infected hematoma. Refinement in surgical techniques is recommended to minimize the formation vaginal vault hematomas after vaginal hysterectomy.展开更多
