The Effect Of Fin Use On The Speed Of Lifesaving Rescues, Jose Arturo Abraldes, Susana Soares, Antônio Barroso Lima, Ricardo Jorge Fernandes, João Paulo Vilas-Boas

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

The authors analyzed how using 2 types of fins altered the velocity ( v ) and fatigue indexes (FI) of lifeguards during mannequin carries. Ten participants performed 3 trials of 25-m mannequin carries at maximal v while barefoot and while wearing flexible and fiber-type fins. A swim-sensor speedometer was used for measuring v. Mean v during 2-s periods was computed in the beginning, middle, and at the end of the event. The slopes of v and FI were computed for the first and second halves of each trial as well as for the total time required. After it had been …

Sphere Packing, Lattices, And Epstein Zeta Function, Lenny Fukshansky

CMC Faculty Publications and Research

The sphere packing problem in dimension N asks for an arrangement of non-overlapping spheres of equal radius which occupies the largest possible proportion of the corresponding Euclidean space. This problem has a long and fascinating history. In 1611 Johannes Kepler conjectured that the best possible packing in dimension 3 is obtained by a face centered cubic and hexagonal arrangements of spheres. A proof of this legendary conjecture has finally been published in 2005 by Thomas Hales. The analogous problem in dimension 2 has been solved by Laszlo Fejes Toth in 1940, and this really is the extent of our current …

Using Confirmatory Factor Analysis To Understand Executive Control In Preschool Children: I. Latent Structure, S. A. Wiebe, K. A. Espy, D. Charak

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory: Faculty Publications

Although many tasks have been developed recently to study executive control in the preschool years, the constructs that underlie performance on these tasks are poorly understood. In particular, it is unclear whether executive control is comprised of multiple, separable cognitive abilities (e.g., inhibition and working memory) or whether it is unitary in nature. A sample of 243 normally developing children between 2.25 and 6 years of age completed a battery of age appropriate executive control tasks. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to compare multiple models of executive control empirically. A single-factor, general model was sufficient to account for the …

Limerickshaws: The Grand Finale, David Morice

Word Ways

In the last issue of Word Ways, Kickshaws became Limerickshaws, a special edition celebrating the 100^th anniversary of the 1907 British Limerick Craze. The column began with 28 words found using Google. Each of the words referred to limericks, and each began with an L. Similarly the words above refer to limericks, but they begin with letters other than L. Most of them are terms that writers have made up to refer to invented forms.

Thinking And Action: Preparing Students To Engage Complexity Within Themselves And In The World, Julia Van Der Ryn

Collected Faculty Scholarship

This essay explores the dynamic tension between the human need to cultivate an autonomous identity and the desire to be part of a larger reality, suggesting that authentic morality emerges from a person’s struggle with the ever-shifting overlap between these two drives. Creating an intersection between thinking and action, service-learning pedagogy draws us into a creative confrontation with these drives, preparing students to engage complexity within themselves and in the world.
