Sentence examples for gliding resistance from inspiring English sources
Furthermore, bulky knots enlarge the tendon cross-sectional area, increasing gliding resistance during active flexion and therefore the risk of gapping or suture failure.
This study reports the gliding resistance between repaired, partially lacerated tendon and pulley in human cadaver digits, using several commonly employed repair techniques.
To investigate the gliding ability and mechanical properties of decellularized intrasynovial tendons with and without surface modification designed to reduce gliding resistance.
In this study, we have designed a new device, which can measure the forces at the proximal and distal end of the tendon during finger flexion, so that gliding resistance can be isolated from the WOF.
In order to move the finger the tendon force must overcome the gliding resistance of the tendon as well as the forces to move the joints, finger inertias, and external load.
The breaking force of the repair can be improved by increasing the number of strands crossing the repair site, the suture caliber and the number of knots; however, in this way the tendon cross-sectional area is enlarged, causing increased gliding resistance [12].
The kinematics were examined by analyzing video and work rates estimated from the combined contribution of work against gravity, gliding friction, and air resistance.
The Spanish artist and architect said he wanted his car "to appear as if it were gliding through space without encountering any form of resistance".
The obstacle resistance produced by these segments on gliding dislocations is controlled by their mobility, which is determined in turn by the atomic structure of their cores.
You can almost feel the mild resistance as the Nink lovingly caresses your desk, gliding back and forth at your slightest bidding….
That extra area dramatically increased drag, meaning that a pregnant dolphin gliding at a comfortable 1.7 meters per second met with the same water resistance as a nonpregnant dolphin going twice as fast.
