Brass Wire Forming By Friction Stir Back Extrusion: Numerical Modeling and Experiment

Friction stir back extrusion (FSBE) is used to produce brass wires and then, Numerical modeling is developed to simulate the FSBE of brass based on the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian technique (CEL) and verified by experiments. Next, the effects of FSBE parameters such as tool rotational and plunging speed on the strain and temperature distributions, microstructure, and patterns of material flow are studied. The results show that, the highest temperature and strain occurs near the tool/workpiece interface, but in a further distance from the tool axis. Additionally, in the cross section of a FSBE wire, the microstructure is finer in the periphery of the sample. A higher rotational speed or a lower plunging speed results in a coarser microstructure. The material flow pattern during the process is conical helix, and does not change meaningfully by the process parameters. The points at the further distance from the tool axis, along with an upward movement, experience an inward spiral movement which is amplified by higher rotational speed. However, the materials very near the tool axis almost take an upward movement and endure a very lower strain.

Kitesurfing – a unique movement experience

The desire of people of different ages to spend more and more time in nature and maximally benefit from the resources in the natural environment is one of the current trends in leisure activities. The extensive use of high-performance equipment and technologies makes it possible to live unique movement experiences that associate mobility with adrenaline, intense emotions with overcoming one’s limits. This trend also incorporates the practice of extreme sports, which have considerably developed due to the constant emergence of new disciplines that satisfy increasingly eccentric tastes. The tendency to practise extreme sports is noticed among young people but also among adults and seniors. Obviously, the extreme sport practised is different, adults and seniors being more reluctant. A category of sports whose popularity has grown in recent years is that of extreme water sports, which include kitesurfing or kiteboarding. This sport uses a kite, a control system and a board to ride on water. They are set in motion by both the power of the wind and the abilities of the kiteboarder, who needs to know the rules to correctly use the equipment. Although kitesurfing seems to be a sport accessible to all ages and training levels, it requires good fitness as well as a proper understanding of the equipment and environmental factors, which definitely influence its practice. Kitesurfing offers participants the opportunity to become aware of their own limits and to combine sport and passion during a unique movement experience that cannot be achieved by practising another sport.

Hasil Belajar Pendidikan Jasmani dan Olahraga Siswa Sekolah Dasar: Pengaruh Keterampilan Motorik (Tinggi) dan Model Pembelajaran (Kooperatif)

The level of motor skills of elementary school students can be influenced by many things such as movement experience, the environment, and facilities for learning so that it also impacts on learning outcomes. This study intends to find out the differences in physical education and sports learning outcomes of floor gymnastic material from elementary school students who have high motor skills. Floor gymnastic learning material is used in two cooperative learning model strategies (Student Teams Achievement Divisions and Jigsaw). The research approach method used was an experiment with a Pre-Experimental design. The students' motor skills were measured using the Johnson Fundamental Skills Test, while the series of floor motion exercises for Grade V Elementary School students were used as research instruments. The results of his study showed that there were differences in physical education learning outcomes and sports materials on floor gymnastics, groups of students with the STAD strategy got better learning outcomes compared to the Jigsaw strategy group. So, it can be concluded that the use of the STAD strategy cooperative learning model for students with high motor skills gives a better influence than Jigsaw's strategy on learning outcomes of physical education and sports learning exercises for floor gymnastics.AbstrakTingkat keterampilan motorik siswa Sekolah Dasar bisa dipengaruhi oleh banyak hal seperti pengalaman gerak, lingkungan, serta fasilitas untuk pembelajaran sehingga berdampak pula terhadap hasil belajarnya. Penelitian ini bermaksud untuk mengetahui perbedaan hasil belajar pendidikan jasmani dan olahraga materi senam lantai dari siswa Sekolah Dasar yang memiliki keterampilan motorik tinggi. Materi pembelajaran senam lantai digunakan pada dua strategi model pembelajaran kooperatif (student Teams Achievement Divisions dan Jigsaw). Metode Pendekatan penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen dengan desain Pre-Experimental. Keterampilan motorik siswa diukur menggunakan Johnson Fundamental Skills Test, sedangkan rangkaian gerak senam lantai untuk siswa Sekolah Dasar kelas V digunakan sebagai instrumen penelitian. Hasil penelitiannya menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan hasil belajar pendidikan jasmani dan olahraga materi senam lantai, kelompok siswa dengan strategi STAD mendapatkan hasil belajar yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan kelompok strategi Jigsaw. Sehingga, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa penggunaan model pembelajaran kooperatif strategi STAD kepada siswa dengan keterampilan motorik tinggi memberikan pengaruh yang lebih baik daripada strategi Jigsaw terhadap hasil belajar pendidikan jasmani dan olahraga materi pembelajaran senam lantai.

Repetita iuvant: repetition facilitates online planning of sequential movements

Even for overlearned motor skills such as reaching, movement repetition improves performance. How brain processes associated with motor planning or execution benefit from repetition, however, remains unclear. We report the novel finding of repetition effects for sequential movements. Our results show that repetition benefits are tied to improved online planning of upcoming sequence elements. We also highlight how actual movement experience appears to be more beneficial than mental rehearsal for observing short-term repetition effects.

Meaning and Belonging: Young Adults in Today’s Pentecostal Congregations in Sweden The focus of this article is to explore where and how young adults in the contemporary Swedish Pentecostal movement experience meaning and belonging in their congregation and what impact meaning and belonging have for them. This article builds on a study from 2019, in which young adults in today’s Swedish Pentecostal congregations described their beliefs and their congregational life; Gemenskap, individualism och andlighet. Tro och församlingsliv bland unga vuxna i den samtida svenska pingströrelsen (Sand, 2019). The data was collected through interviews and a survey, in which both young-adult members and leaders were questioned. The results from the 2019-study will in this article be analysed and discussed based on Meredith B. McGuire’s theory on meaning and belonging in Religion: The Social Context (2008). In addition, the results will also be compared with related research. The results show the young adults mostly experience meaning and belonging in the smaller gatherings the congregations offer. The smaller groups offer the opportunity to form close bonds to other members and the possibility to strengthen their faith. The groups also work as a “safe haven” where the members can share their everyday life and personal challenges. Although the large parish community in the congregations can provide both meaning and belonging, such as volunteering in the church activities, worship and prayer during the Sunday services; they do not produce that to the same extent as the smaller gatherings. This article shows that the experience of meaning and belonging is important both for the development of the young adults’ faith and their belonging in the congregations.
