Molecular Models

43.7K
Physical models representing molecular architectures of chemical compounds play essential roles in understanding chemistry. The use of molecular models makes it easier to visualize the structures and shapes of atoms and molecules.

The Bohr Model

80.9K
Following the work of Ernest Rutherford and his colleagues in the early twentieth century, the picture of atoms consisting of tiny dense nuclei surrounded by lighter and even tinier electrons continually moving about the nucleus was well established. This picture was called the planetary model since it pictured the atom as a miniature “solar system” with the electrons orbiting the nucleus like planets orbiting the sun. The simplest atom is hydrogen, consisting of a single proton as the...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

15.4K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Compartment Models: Two-Compartment Model

7.1K
The two-compartment model divides the body into central and peripheral compartments to account for varying blood perfusion rates among organs and tissues, affecting drug distribution. The central compartment includes blood and highly perfused tissues with rapid drug distribution, while the peripheral compartment contains tissues with slower drug distribution. After a single IV bolus dose, the drug concentration is high in plasma and low in tissues. The drug distribution between compartments...

Clearance Models: Physiological Models01:09

Clearance Models: Physiological Models

317
Drug clearance is a critical pharmacokinetic process involving the irreversible removal of drugs from the body through various organs over a specified time period. Physiological models are indispensable in determining organ-specific clearance, defined by the proportion of the drug eliminated per unit of time from the organ's blood volume.
The organ's clearance rate depends on the blood flow to the organ and the extraction ratio (E). The extraction ratio describes the organ's...

Clearance Models: Compartment Models

314
Clearance measures drug elimination from the central compartment, including plasma and highly perfused organs like kidneys and liver. Its calculation varies depending on pharmacokinetic models and administration routes. The one-compartment model, for instance, portrays the pharmacokinetics of polar drugs such as aminoglycoside antibiotics administered intravenously and readily excreted in urine. In this case, clearance is influenced by the terminal rate constant (λz) and the total volume...

Area of Science:

  • Biomechanics
  • Musculoskeletal modeling
  • Human movement analysis

Background:

  • Existing musculoskeletal models (MSKM) often lack accuracy for large range of motion (ROM) activities due to limitations in simulating joint mechanics.
  • Standard models are typically optimized for gait and running, restricting their applicability to activities with smaller joint excursions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of incorporating wrapping surfaces (WS) at the hip and knee joints within a MSKM.
  • To assess how modifying WS parameters influences muscle moment arms (MA) and muscle activations during squatting.
  • To enhance the MSKM's capability for analyzing movements with extensive joint flexion.

Main Methods:

  • Customization of an existing MSKM by altering wrapping surface (WS) parameters.
  • Implementation of additional WS to better represent anatomical constraints during large joint movements.
  • Evaluation of changes in muscle moment arms (MA) and muscle activations under simulated squatting conditions.

Main Results:

  • The modified MSKM demonstrated more realistic muscle moment arms (MA) across a wider range of motion (ROM).
  • Wrapping surfaces (WS) were shown to prevent unrealistic muscle paths, crucial for accurate simulations.
  • The customized model successfully analyzed movements up to 138° hip and 145° knee flexion.

Conclusions:

  • Modifying wrapping surfaces (WS) in MSKM significantly improves the accuracy of muscle moment arms (MA) and activations for large range of motion (ROM) activities.
  • The enhanced MSKM provides a more robust tool for analyzing complex movements such as deep squatting.
  • This customization allows for more realistic biomechanical simulations in sports and clinical settings.
