Chronic (≥3mo) survivors of stroke (N=33; mean age, 62y; mean stroke duration, 38mo).
The influences of the other engine design and operating parameters such as engine speed, mean piston speed, stroke length, equivalence ratio, compression ratio and bore stroke length ratio on the engine performance have been investigated in the FTTM section.
However, the engine performance could increase or decrease with respect to different conditions for some parameters such as engine speed, mean piston speed, stroke length, equivalence ratio and compression ratio.
However, the swimming speed of 0.210 m/s (condition 4) in Table 3 means the normalized stroke length of 0.522.
Long-stroke sucker-rod pumping units are completely different from the traditional beam pump mechanisms and usually have polished rod stroke lengths greater than 24 ft.
On the other hand, the performance characteristics can improve or deteriorate with respect to different conditions of compression ratio, engine speed, equivalence ratio, stroke length and mean piston speed.
The effects of mean piston speed, friction coefficient, cylinder bore, stroke length, stroke-to-bore ratio, equivalence ratio, and compression ratio on the energy losses and cycle performance have been investigated.
Figure 1 shows the data for the average velocity of each 50 m lap, along with the observed stroke rate and stroke length, expressed as a percentage of their mean for the 200 m swim.
In the case of fully submerged WECs, the power performance becomes a function of additional variables including the proximity to the mean surface level of the water, body shape and the maximum stroke length of the power take-off system.
Stroke rate and stroke length were not different between and within conditions (p > 0.05).
