A statistical model is used to study the formation of noise gratings in holograms and the mechanism that causes radiation scattering in them. The theoretical model presented describes noise scattering in terms of diffraction due to the high number of…

This paper deals with diffuse-object holograms recorded in silver halide sensitized gelatin. Both the diffraction efficiency and the signal-to-noise ratio when reconstruction is done with different wavelengths are measured. The experimental results we obtained show that new theoretical models for…

Our intention in this paper is to shortly address some of the basic categories that determine the paradigm of sport culture as we know it. We do believe that by understanding these basic categories the changes of prevailing sport paradigm,…

This article reviews the state of art of the research concerning the biomechanics of blocking in volleyball. Since it is fundamental to link the "reality of the game" (what happens in the field) with laboratory simulations, the logic procedure to…

This article reviews existing knowledge concerning the epidemiology, instruments and regulatory criteria currently used to evaluate artificial turf soccer pitches. Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the use of artificial turf as a playing surface for sports (rugby, soccer,…

We report for the first time the results of a comparative performance study of silver-halide sensitized gelatin (SHSG) holograms recorded in the familiar Agfa 8E75 HD plates and the new BB-640 plates manufactured by Holographic Recording Technologies. High diffraction efficiency…

Recording noise gratings with single-beam exposures in bleached silver halide emulsions is used as a holographic spectroscopy technique in order to analyse and optimize photochemical processing. In particular, rehalogenating type bleachings are analysed by measuring the transmittance through the recorded…

An analytical approximate technique for conservative nonlinear oscillators is proposed. This method is a modification of the generalized harmonic balance method in which analytical approximate solutions have rational form. This approach gives us not only a truly periodic solution but…

Very few studies exist on biomechanics of rhythmic gymnastic. Four leaps of an experienced high
level (national competition) rhythmic gymnast athlete (16yo, 175 cm height, 50 kg weight) were analyzed
in order to provide firsts descriptive data of these movements,…

Optical densities before bleaching and final Lin curves of planewave phase holograms recorded in Agfa—Gevaert 8E75HD emulsions were measured for various combinations of developers (AAC, Pyrogallol and Catechol) and bleaching agents (R-9 and EDTA). To characterize the processing, the square…
