Constant angular velocity of the wrist during the lifting of a sphere.
The primary objective of the experiments was to investigate the wrist motion of a person while they were carrying out a prehensile task from a clinical hand function test. A sixcamera movement system was used to observe the wrist motion of 10 participants. A very light sphere and a heavy sphere were used in the experiments to study any mass effects. While seated at a table, a participant moved a sphere over a small obstacle using their dominant hand. The participants were observed to move their wrist at a constant angular velocity. This phenomenon has not been reported previously. Theoretically, the muscles of the wrist provide an impulse of force at the start of the rotation while the forearm maintains a constant vertical force on a sphere. Light–heavy mean differences for the velocities, absolute velocities, angles and times taken showed no significant differences (p¼0.05)
Bridging the digital divide: young people's perspectives on taking action
Marginalised young people really do care about political and social issues, but that their day-to-day experiences often make it difficult for them to take action to create change in their communities, according to the findings of this report. "Taking action" means something quite different to marginalised young people, compared with traditional definitions of social and political participation. The research found that some of the barriers to participating in social and political action included not knowing how to take action, the attitudes of others and their own personal circumstances and characteristics. For those most marginalised, issues such as safety, personal security and health were paramount. The research involved focus groups with young people, as well as in-depth interviews with service providers, across Victoria. It explored how young people from a diverse range of backgrounds feel about participating in political and social action. This report is the second in a series of four that explores the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and its role in improving the mental health of young people who experience or who are at risk of experiencing social, cultural or economic marginalisation
The cold atom Hubbard toolbox
We review recent theoretical advances in cold atom physics concentrating on
strongly correlated cold atoms in optical lattices. We discuss recently
developed quantum optical tools for manipulating atoms and show how they can be
used to realize a wide range of many body Hamiltonians. Then we describe
connections and differences to condensed matter physics and present
applications in the fields of quantum computing and quantum simulations.
Finally we explain how defects and atomic quantum dots can be introduced in a
controlled way in optical lattice systems.Comment: Review article, 31 pages, 14 figures, to be published in Annals of

Countryside Stewardship Facilitation Fund - Phase 3 Final Report LM04101
Executive Summary: Since 2017 Natural England has been analysing the Facilitation Fund in relation to its process and outcomes (phase 1 and 2 of Facilitation Fund evaluation). This report forms phase 3 of this evaluation process. The objective of this phase was to evaluate the benefits Facilitation Fund groups offer, measured against natural capital and social indicators with a particular focus on contributions to nature recovery and ecological restoration
