Sentence examples for augmented stiffness from inspiring English sources

In the present experiment, it is possible that fatigue probably augmented stiffness in the hip extensor muscles.

Some authors believe that new VCFs after vertebral augmentation are caused by augmented stiffness of the treated vertebrae related to the amount of injected cement, 10, 11 load transfer, 12– 14 and cement leakage into the adjacent vertebral disc space.

The effects of rotation are included by using a "stress smoothing" technique when calculating the augmented stiffness matrix.

Augmented stiffness of the ventricular wall increases the slope of the EDPVR.

The classic modal representation augmented with stiffness and inertia correction terms accounting for non-resonant modes improves the calibration accuracy and meanwhile avoids complex modal analysis of the full system.

This distinction between enhanced contractility and augmented ventricular stiffness is important when considering development of pathology, as the progression towards LVH is caused by increased arterial resistance and characterized by uncontrolled high blood pressure and heightened arterial stiffness (Drazner 2011).

After adjusting for other demographic and biological covariates, the results of our study indicate that a 100 IU/L increase in serum ALT levels augmented liver stiffness values by approximately 0.155 m/s (model R = 0.630, adjusted R = 0.602).

We hypothesized previously that passively augmented trunk stiffness with an orthosis could lead to a slightly reduced trunk muscle co-contraction, which may represent only a few percents of maximum voluntary activation [ 8, 28], but still could compromise spine stability and lead to injury [ 29].

Specifically, the timing and amplitude of muscle activity prior to and in the initial phase of ground contact affect economy by augmenting leg stiffness and the exploitation of stored elastic energy.

This double mutation therefore augments the stiffness of the linker arm, which is otherwise only partially rigid in M13V (relative to M13V/K22M), as shown by enhanced levels of protection for the double mutant.

With aging [ 11] and/or diabetes [ 12] alterations in large artery composition associated with increased arterial stiffness, augmented blood flow and increased pressure wave reflections, impact more on CASP relative to SBP.
