Surface EMG signals of m. flexor digitorum superficialis (MFDS) and m. extensor digitorum (MED) were recorded of 23 subjects during archery shooting. Two-second periods (clicker falls at 1th sec) of 12 shots' EMG data were recorded, rectified and averaged (moving average filter) for each subjects. 7 and 6 of the subjects were elite and beginner archers respectively, while rest is non-archers. Intra-archer mean value (IAMV) and standard deviations (IASD) of cross-correlations (CC) were calculated for each archer. Kruskal-Wallis Statistic was used for subject's IAMVs or IASDs vs. skill groups. Variation among group medians of IAMVs was statistically significant (p<0.05) for both MED and MFDS. But variation among group medians of IASDs was statistically significant (p<0.05) for only MED. The results show that when archery experience increases archers contract their MED or MFDS more similarly since CCs of EMG waveforms increase. IAMVs and IASDs of CCs may be a good candidate for a) assessing shooting techniques b) evaluation of archers' progress, and c) selection of talented archers.

Electromagnetic transitions among octet and decuplet baryons in QCD Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (2013-08-05) The magnetic dipole G(M)(Q(2)), electric quadrupole G(E)(Q(2)), and Coulomb quadrupole G(C)(Q(2)) form factors, describing the spin-3/2 to spin-1/2 electromagnetic transitions, are investigated within the light cone QCD sum rules. The Q(2) dependence of these form factors, as well as ratios of electric quadrupole and Coulomb quadrupole form factors to the magnetic dipole form factors, are studied. We also compare our results on the magnetic dipole form factor with the prediction of the covariant spectator q...
Near-Infrared Resonant Cavity Enhanced Silicon Microsphere Photodetector Murib, Mohammed Sharif; Yüce, Emre; GÜRLÜ, Oguzhan; SERPENGÜZEL, Ali (2009-05-06) Elastic scattering intensity calculations at 90 degrees and 0 degrees for the transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarized light were performed at 1200nm for a 50 mu m radius and 3.5 refractive index silicon microsphere. The mode spacing between morphology dependent resonances was found to be 1.76 nm. The linewidth of the morphology dependent resonances was observed to be 0.02 nm, which leads to a quality factor on the order of 10(4).
Performance evaluation of magnetic flux density based magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography reconstruction algorithms Eker, Gökhan; Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT) reconstructs images of electrical conductivity distribution based on magnetic flux density (B) measurements. Magnetic flux density is generated by an externally applied current on the object and measured by a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanner. With the measured data and peripheral voltage measurements, the conductivity distribution of the object can be reconstructed. There are two types of reconstruction algorithms. First type uses current de...
Performance evaluation of current density based magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography reconstruction algorithms (mr-eit) Boyacıoğlu, Rasim; Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat; Department of Biomedical Engineering (2009) Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT) reconstructs conductivity distribution with internal current density (MRCDI) and boundary voltage measurements. There are many algorithms proposed for the solution of MREIT inverse problem which can be divided into two groups: Current density (J) and magnetic flux density (B) based reconstruction algorithms. In this thesis, J-based MREIT reconstruction algorithms are implemented and optimized with modifications. These algorithms are simulated with f...
Ensemble monte carlo study of nonequilibrium carrier dynamics in photo-excited p-i-n, structures Guncer, SE; Ferry, DK (1996-04-01) Light scattering from conduction electrons (or from valence holes) can give information on the time-resolved velocity distribution of nonequilibrium carriers. The experimental approach utilizes, e.g., Raman scattering from the single particles to ascertain the velocity distribution. Calculation of the distribution function through an ensemble Monte Carlo technique allows a comparison between the experiment and theory. Here, this is demonstrated with studies of a GaAs p-i-n structure embedded within cladding...
