  2. Eccentric training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentric_training

    This movement has also been described as negative training. This "negative" movement is necessary to reverse the muscle from its initial trajectory. [1]When the load exceeds the force that can be developed by the muscle at a constant length, as in an eccentric muscle action, the exercise is referred to as involving negative work, because the muscle is absorbing energy.

  3. Geometric terms of location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_terms_of_location

    Though these terms themselves may be somewhat ambiguous, they are usually used in a context in which their meaning is clear. For example, when referring to a drive shaft it is clear what is meant by axial or radial directions. Or, in a free body diagram, one may similarly infer a sense of orientation by the forces or other vectors represented.

  4. Fly (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_(exercise)

    The main anatomical planes of the human body, including median (red), parasagittal (yellow), frontal or coronal plane (blue) and transverse or axial plane (green).. A fly or flye is a strength training exercise in which the hand and arm move through an arc while the elbow is kept at a constant angle.

  5. List of human positions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_positions

    Human positions refer to the different physical configurations that the human body can take. There are several synonyms that refer to human positioning, often used interchangeably, but having specific nuances of meaning. [1] Position is a general term for a configuration of the human body. Posture means an intentionally or habitually assumed ...

  6. A value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_value

    This means it costs 1.74 kcal/mol (7.3 kJ/mol) of energy to have a methyl group in the axial position compared to the equatorial position. A-values are numerical values used in the determination of the most stable orientation of atoms in a molecule (conformational analysis), as well as a general representation of steric bulk.

  7. Sliding filament theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_filament_theory

    Sliding filament theory: A sarcomere in relaxed (above) and contracted (below) positions. The sliding filament theory explains the mechanism of muscle contraction based on muscle proteins that slide past each other to generate movement. [1]

  8. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    [1]: 410–417 For instance, when 5 valence electron pairs surround a central atom, they adopt a trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry with two collinear axial positions and three equatorial positions. An electron pair in an axial position has three close equatorial neighbors only 90° away and a fourth much farther at 180°, while an ...

  9. Photoactivated localization microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoactivated...

    To determine the axial position of a single fluorophore in the sample the following approaches are currently being used: modification of the point spread function to introduce z-dependent features in the 2D (x,y) image (the most common approach is to introduce astigmatism in the PSF); multiplane detection, where the axial position is determined ...
