  2. Muscle Atrophy Research and Exercise System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_Atrophy_Research...

    Test subject seated in the MARES human restraint system and using the linear adapter to exercise his arms. The Muscle Atrophy Research and Exercise System (MARES), part of the Human Research Facility (HRF), was launched on 5 April 2010 in a stowed position inside the HRF MARES Rack, integrated into a Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) and transported to the International Space Station.

  3. Power rack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rack

    A power rack (also known as a power cage, squat cage or squat rack) is a piece of weight training equipment that functions as a mechanical spotter for free weight barbell exercises without the movement restrictions imposed by equipment such as the Smith machine. Its general design is four upright posts with two adjustable horizontal bar catches ...

  4. Pneumatic artificial muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_artificial_muscles

    Pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) are contractile or extensional devices operated by pressurized air filling a pneumatic bladder. In an approximation of human muscles, PAMs are usually grouped in pairs: one agonist and one antagonist. PAMs were first developed (under the name of McKibben Artificial Muscles) in

  5. Rack and pinion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion

    A rack and pinion has roughly the same purpose as a worm gear with a rack replacing the gear, in that both convert torque to linear force. However the rack and pinion generally provides higher linear speed — since a full turn of the pinion displaces the rack by an amount equal to the pinion's pitch circle whereas a full rotation of the worm screw only displaces the rack by one tooth width.

  6. EDSAC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDSAC

    The Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator (EDSAC) was an early British computer. [1] Inspired by John von Neumann's seminal First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC, the machine was constructed by Maurice Wilkes and his team at the University of Cambridge Mathematical Laboratory in England.

  7. Skeletal muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_muscle

    Muscle strength is a result of three overlapping factors: physiological strength (muscle size, cross sectional area, available crossbridging, responses to training), neurological strength (how strong or weak is the signal that tells the muscle to contract), and mechanical strength (muscle's force angle on the lever, moment arm length, joint ...

  8. Myogenic mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myogenic_mechanism

    [3] [4] The Bayliss effect in vascular smooth muscles cells is a response to stretch. This is especially relevant in arterioles of the body. When blood pressure is increased in the blood vessels and the blood vessels distend, they react with a constriction; this is the Bayliss effect. Stretch of the muscle membrane opens a stretch-activated ion ...

  9. USS Edsall (DD-219) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Edsall_(DD-219)

    USS Edsall (DD-219), was a Clemson-class destroyer, the first of two United States Navy ships named after Seaman Norman Eckley Edsall (1873–1899). She was sunk by a combined Japanese air and sea attack, approximately 200 miles (320 km) east of Christmas Island on 1 March 1942.
