Effects of different precooling techniques on repeat sprint ability in team sport athletes by Brade, Carly, Dawson, B., Wallman, K.

“…A moderate ES (d = 0.57) also indicated lower TC in J + ice slushy (38.2±0.3) compared to ice slushy (38.4±0.4°C) after half-time cooling. Change (?) in mean skin temperature over half-time cooling was significantly greater (p = 0.036) for J (1.0±0.4°C) compared to ice slushy (0.5±0.5°C), and ES (d = 0.5-1.10) also suggested a greater ? …”

A preliminary study on foamed bitumen stabilisation for Western Australian pavements by Huan, Yue, Siripun, Komsun, Jitsangiam, Peerapong, Nikraz, Hamid

“…Our findings show that 2.5% of cold water spraying into 180°C virgin Class 170 bitumen can produce foamed bitumen with a 15 to 20 times expansion rate and 20 s half-time suitable for foaming aggregates. Both resilient modulus and permanent deformation tests failed to predict an optimum foamed bitumen content when the aggregate was mixed with 1% hydrated lime, compacted at 100% optimum moisture content and plastic sealed curing for 7 days at room temperature.However, the ratio of crushed granite roadbase to limestone was found to be significant and a mixture consisting of 75% crushed rock base and 25% crushed limestone was determined as the optimum aggregate proportion, as it showed the best performance in unconfined compressive strength tests and obtained relatively higher values in indirect tensile strength tests. …”

Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(lactic acid)/kenaf fiber composites by Adibah Borhan, Razaina Mat Taib

“…It was found that KF size of 80-106 µm acts as nucleating agent during non-isothermal crystallization of PLA/KF composites since the values of half-time of crystallization (t1/2) of PLA80 were the fastest as compared to neat PLA and other PLA/KF composites at a given cooling rate. …”

Effect of pre-cooling on repeat-sprint performance in seasonally acclimatised males during an outdoor simulated team-sport protocol in warm conditions by Brade, Carly, Dawson, B., Wallman, K.

“…Trials began with a 30-min baseline/cooling period followed by an 80 min repeat-sprint protocol, comprising 4 x 20-min quarters, with 2 x 5-min quarter breaks and a 10-min half-time recovery/cooling period. A clear and substantial (negative; PC slower) effect was recorded for first quarter circuit time. …”

Comparative study of football team rating system using elo rating and pi-rating for Switzerland Super League by Sukarno, Siti Nurzulaika, Saringat, Mohd Zainuri, Mustapha, Aida, Razali, Nazim

“…Usually, in a football match, the audience will predict which team will win based on the goals scored by the team at half-time or penalty. This prediction is important because when evaluating match results, it is important to first compare the potential strength of the teams involved in the match. …”
