TL;DR: An analysis of the influence of selected kinematic factors on the side kick technique is presented, especially important in the traditional version of taekwon-do, in which a single strike may reveal the winner.
Abstract: The aim of the paper is to present an analysis of the influence of selected kinematic factors on the side kick technique. This issue is especially important in the traditional version of taekwon-do, in which a single strike may reveal the winner. Six taekwon-do (International Taekwon-do Federation) athletes were asked to participate in this case study. Generally accepted criteria of sports technique biomechanical analysis were adhered to. The athletes executed a side kick three times (in Taekwon-do terminology referred to as yop chagi) in a way which they use the kick in board breaking. The obtained data were used to determine the mean velocity changes in the function of relative extension length of the kicking leg. The maximum knee and foot velocities in the Cartesian coordinate system were determined. The leg lifting time and the duration of kick execution as well as the maximum force which the standing foot exerted on the ground were also determined. On the basis of the obtained values, mean values and standard deviations were calculated. The correlation dependence (r=0.72) shows that greater knee velocity affects the velocity which the foot develops as well as the fact that the total time of kick execution depends on the velocity which the knee (r = -0.59) and the foot (r = - 0.86) develop in the leg lifting phase. The average maximum speed was obtained at the length of the leg equal to 82% of the maximum length of the fully extended leg. This length can be considered the optimum value for achieving the maximum dynamics of the kick.

TL;DR: The obtained results show the good performance with respect to the removal of heavy metals from landfill leachate with the overall removal efficiency of 99%, 88% and 55% for Pb(II), Cd(II) and Zn( II) ions, respectively.

TL;DR: A multiserver on-demand system is considered in which each call has three interdependent random characteristics: the required number of servers, capacity, and service time, and a stationary distribution of the number of calls is found.
Abstract: A multiserver on-demand system is considered in which each call has three interdependent random characteristics: the required number of servers, capacity, and service time. The total capacity of calls and the total number of servers in the system are limited. The type of a call is defined by the number of servers required for its service. We find a stationary distribution of the number of calls in the system, as well as the loss probability for a call of each type.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydrophobic β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) polymers have been used as macrocyclic ion carriers for separation of Pb(II, Zn(II), and Cu(II) ions from dilute aqueous solutions by transport across polymer inclusion membranes.

TL;DR: The results may help facilitate the development of protective environmental measures against IL-induced negative effects, but they may also be used in various landscape-related areas, such as herbology, to design new substances with weed killing properties.
