Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis Shoulder Luxation
No full textTitle: Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis Shoulder Luxation Název: Kazuistika fyzioterapeutické péče o pacienta s diagnózou luxace ramenního kloubu Author: Emmanouil Kassakis This bachelor thesis is divided into two parts, the general part and the special part. In the general part, it is included all the theoretical information about my patient's diagnosis. Specifically, the theoretical part is composed by the basic anatomy of the shoulder joint including muscles, joint, ligaments and bones. Then the biomechanical and kinesiological field. Furthermore, it is explained in details how the shoulder luxation injury is it possible to happen. Secondly, the special part which is the most important part of the bachelor thesis, it is composed by the whole information, examinations, therapy sessions and results of my patient. It is explained in details and in pictures of the patient during her therapy sessions as well. There were performed to the patient about 7 therapies sessions. Starting from Wednesday 5 February 2014 and ending on Friday 14 February 2014. Each therapy session is explained in details including the procedure and the results as well. Key words: shoulder, shoulder luxation, conservative treatment, shoulder girdle, range of motion, exercise. Powered by TCPDF..
Case study of Physical Therapy approach of patient with Anterior. Cruciate Ligament rupture after traumatic injury in skiing
No full textTitle: Physical Therapy program in a patient with total rupture of Anterior Cruciate Ligament and partial rupture of Medial Collateral Ligament of the right knee joint after ski accident. Název bakalářské práce: Author: Emmanouil Tsichlakis The current Bachelor Thesis is divided into two parts, theoritical and practical one. In the theoritical part an overview of the general anatomy of the knee joint and the biomechanics of the knee ligaments are presented. Also the mechanisms of the injury of Anterior Cruciate Ligament, the clinical examination that follows, the symptomes that correspond in this injury and the conservative therapeutic approach are discused. The second part contains a detailed description of the case study of the patient, the examination tests and the rehabilitation program I perforfed to the patient and also the evaluation of the results of the therapy. Key worlds: Physical Therapy, knee joint, Anterior Cruciate Ligament, rupture, conservative, skiing Dates of practice: 16/1/2012 - 1/2/2012 Location of practice: Ústřední vojenská nemocnice Praha 1200/1, 162 00 Praha

Market trend, company size and microstructure characteristics of intraday stock price formations
No full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate whether there are certain price
patterns during the trading session in the Athens Stock Exchange (ASE). We
investigate statistically the series of stock returns, the volatility of stock
returns and trading volume. In our analysis we use data from two different
time periods; a period of rising prices (“bull” market) and a period of
declining stock prices (“bear” market). We also use different categories of
shares i.e. blue chips, medium capitalization stocks and small capitalization
stocks. Our results indicate that there exist specific intraday patterns. The
explanation of the revealed patterns can be based on investor sentiment and
stock market microstructure characteristics.peer-reviewe

Day lit density
No full textThesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Architecture, 2015.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Title as it appears in MIT Commencement Exercises program, June 5, 2015: Daylit Density : a simulation-based framework for performance-aware zoning and real estate development. Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 85-86).Population growth and related space constraints have led to a planning paradigm that promotes living and working in high-density urban areas. Increasing urban density, however, leads to a conflict between space-use efficiency and access to daylight. To manage this conflict and to ensure sufficient solar access, cities have traditionally relied on zoning guidelines that propose simple, two-dimensional geometric evaluation techniques. This practice seems antiquated in times when computer aided design tools enable architects to test designs before construction. Recent advances in building performance simulation software allow us to compute annual climate-based daylight performance metrics of urban environments accurately, in high spatial resolution and in a timely manner. Given that zoning requirements as well as massing design decisions at the urban planning level may make or break the long-term daylighting potential of a whole neighborhood, the adoption of these tools by zoning boards and planners seems particularly relevant. This manuscript therefore presents a simulation-based framework for formulating more nuanced prescriptive zoning rules, along with a performance-based approach for developers and planners interested in exploring innovative urban massing solutions. The framework is used to evaluate the daylighting performance of common and innovative urban block typologies in New York City. The performance of the investigated massing designs varies; in some cases the designs significantly outperform existing strategies, supporting urban densities that are twice as high as current zoning maxima. Findings are illustrated using a case study and compiled into a set of recommendations for zoning boards, planners and real estate developers towards more sustainable management of solar access at the urban scale.by Emmanouil Saratsis.S.M
SMART mobility via prediction, optimization and personalization
No full textIn this chapter, we present a methodological approach for Smart Mobility that integrates three key features: prediction, optimization, and personalization. They are integrated in such a way that when a travel menu is offered, predicted conditions are considered in the attributes of alternatives and optimized system-level policies are maintained. Similarly, user-level estimations and updates are used by prediction and optimization methods at the system-level in order to represent the population with most up-to-date behavioral estimates. Furthermore, a simulation-based evaluation methodology enables to validate the performance of prediction, optimization, and personalization before Smart Mobility is implemented in real-life. Two case studies are presented based on the proposed methodologies together with platforms that facilitate their application. Potential benefits of the proposed methodologies are evaluated which can be classified into user-level and system-level benefits. User-level benefits include consumer surplus, waiting times, etc., and system-level is concerned with congestion, throughput, system-wide travel time, etc. As there is normally a tradeoff between the individual decision-making and system-wide decision-making, Smart Mobility bridges them together with appropriate methodologies on each end. For example, for our Flexible Mobility on Demand case study, we observe 10%–20% reduction in volume-to-capacity ratio as a system-level benefit. Moreover, we see that the tradeoff between consumer surplus and operator profit can be managed with an appropriate objective function.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Transport Engineering and Logistic
