Turfgrass species and management practices impact soccer athletes’ peak tibial accelerations and perceptions of surface firmness
No full textData types shared in this repository include:
a) Soil and turfgrass data: soil moisture, surface characteristics (force reduction, energy restitution, vertical deformation, Gmax hardness), and NDVI measurements.
b) Athlete biomechanics data: peak tibial accelerations captured via IMUs, processed through a data cleaning protocol involving a 50 Hz low-pass Butterworth filter applied using SciPy Signal in Python v3.10. Specific thresholds for peak detection, implemented with SciPy’s 'find_peaks' function, were set to exclude non-relevant movements like walking between activities. Thresholds were established based on activity type:
- Drop landing: minimum of 60 m/s², with left and right foot peaks within 250 ms.
- Drop jump: minimum of 105 m/s² for the first landing and 50 m/s² for the second landing, with left and right foot peaks within 250 ms and first and second landings between 450 and 1,000 ms.
- Modified acceleration-deceleration: minimum of 100 m/s².
c) Perceptual data: athlete-reported firmness ratings on a 0-10 scale per zone, assessing subjective surface feel
Elucidating Piezoelectricity and Strain in Monolayer MoS2 at the Nanoscale Using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy
No full textStrain engineering modifies the optical and
electronic properties of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides.
Highly inhomogeneous strain distributions in twodimensional
materials can be easily realized, enabling control of
properties on the nanoscale; however, methods for probing strain
on the nanoscale remain challenging. In this work, we characterize
inhomogeneously strained monolayer MoS2 via Kelvin probe force
microscopy and electrostatic gating, isolating the contributions of
strain from other electrostatic effects and enabling the measurement
of all components of the two-dimensional strain tensor on
length scales less than 100 nm. The combination of these methods
is used to calculate the spatial distribution of the electrostatic
potential resulting from piezoelectricity, presenting a powerful way
to characterize inhomogeneous strain and piezoelectricity that can be extended toward a variety of 2D materials

Rapid foraging risk-assessments in the Jamaican fruit eating bat, Artibeus jamaicensis
No full textAbstract: Foraging increases predation risk. As such, prey frequently attend to potential predator cues when making decisions about foraging behaviour. Environmental cues, such as light levels, can impact predation risk, and populations from different environments may vary in how they respond to such cues. Here we experimentally manipulated foraging conditions for a frugivorous bat to ask whether individuals rapidly alter their foraging behaviour based on potential predator cues and light levels. Specifically, we ran bats in multiple foraging trials across a night in which we varied the level of ambient light or predator cues (auditory or visual) and measured latencies to feed. We found that bats in a more urban population were most affected by simulated full moonlight, delaying their foraging behaviour. In contrast, bats from a rural population were sensitive to simulated urban light. Furthermore, rural bats were also more sensitive to potential predator cues and foraged more rapidly in the presence of novel objects and auditory predator cues. These results reveal variation across populations of the same species with respect to their response to potential predator cues, possibly indicating possible differences in their evaluations of foraging risks.
