  • A Cooperative Game Analysis of Transboundary Hydropower Development in the Lower Mekong: Case of the 3S Sub-basins
    Water Resources Management, 2014
    Co-Authors: Seemanta Sharma Bhagabati, Akiyuki Kawasaki, Peter Rogers, Mukand Babel, Sarawut Ninsawat
    Abstract:

    Hydropower development has enormous economic, environmental, and social impacts at a local, national, and trans-national level. It has been suggested that transboundary water conflicts, such as those that may arise from hydropower development, may be addressed through benefit sharing. This study attempts to investigate the net benefits of hydropower development and water resources utilization in transboundary sub-basin, the Sekong, Sesan and Srepok (commonly known as 3S) sub-basin, in the Mekong River Basin using a game theory approach. This study proposes a methodology for analyzing complex transboundary river-basin issues using the game theory concepts, such as Core Stability and incentive compatibility. A wide range of parameters have been incorporated to define models and methodologies, and an adaptation strategy for the area has been proposed. The results suggests that benefit sharing and cooperation among the riparian countries would lead to benefits to all. It is observed that the greater the cooperation, the higher is the total benefits. External funding and optimal usage of funds will also play a critical role in this context in the near future. The results of the study will provide a basis for local policy decisions and regional planning in the Mekong River and beyond.

  • Core Stability exercises on and off a swiss ball
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2005
    Co-Authors: Paul W M Marshall, Bernadette Murphy
    Abstract:

    Abstract Marshall PW, Murphy BA. Core Stability exercises on and off a Swiss ball. Objectives To assess lumbopelvic muscle activity during different Core Stability exercises on and off a Swiss ball. Design Prospective comparison study. Setting Research laboratory. Participants Eight healthy volunteers from a university population. Intervention Subjects performed 4 exercises on and off a Swiss ball: inclined press-up, upper body roll-out, single-leg hold, and quadruped exercise. Main outcome measures Surface electromyography from selected lumbopelvic muscles, normalized to maximum voluntary isometric contraction, and median frequency analysis of electromyography power spectrum. Visual analog scale for perception of task difficulty. Results There was a significant increase in the activation of the rectus abdominus with performance of the single-leg hold and at the top of the press-up on the Swiss ball. This led to changes in the relation between the activation levels of the lumbopelvic muscles measured. Conclusions Although there was evidence to suggest that the Swiss ball provides a training stimulus for the rectus abdominus, the relevance of this change to Core Stability training requires further research because the focus of stabilization training is on minimizing rectus abdominus activity. Further support has also been provided about the quality of the quadruped exercise for Core Stability.
