Sports Related Post Traumatic Seizures. â¢One concern for athletes who play contact sports (boxing, karate, kick-boxing, muay thai. boxing, American football, ice-hockey, wrestling, judo) is that of TBI and resultant. neurological sequelae such as seizures.
Typically, magnetic clamping technology is mainly used in stationary workholding systems. That is until now with the introduction of the Magnos Mau magnetic gripper that adapts to fit onto any robot arm for handling ferromagnetic workpieces. The gripper, from Schunk Inc. (www.schunk.com), ensures a secure hold at very limited space requirements at a low weight.
Laboratory tests confirmed a theory that wrinkly fingers improve our grip on wet or submerged objects, working to channel away the water like the rain treads in car tires. People often assume that wrinkling is the result of water passing into the outer layer of the skin and making it swell up.e have shown that wrinkled fingers give a better grip in wet conditions â it could be working like treads on your car tires, which allow more of the tire to be in contact with the road and gives you a better grip, says Tom Smulders, an evolutionary biologist at Newcastle University, UK, and a co-author of the paper.
