Experimental Study on Dynamic Mechanical Characteristics and Energy Evolution of Sandstone under Cyclic Impact Loading by Xicai Gao, Huan Xia, Xinyu Wang, Cheng Zhao, Jianhui Yin

“…The cumulative damage of sandstone samples under impact load is significantly affected by impact velocity and times. During the cyclic impact test, the reflected energy of sandstone increases with the increase of impact numbers, while the transmitted energy decreases and the absorbed energy increases; the cumulative specific energy absorption variable is introduced, and the cumulative specific energy absorption value of the samples increases with the increase of impact numbers, which can better characterize the variation of energy accumulation and dissipation of sandstone samples under cyclic impact.…”

Mediating role of self-esteem on university students’ physical activity attitude and frequency by Cristiana L. Pop, Rela V. Ciomag

“…The mean self-esteem score (31.48) falls within the normal range, but 60% of respondents could not match their actual body shape with their ideal or desired body image. 54% of respondents reported engaging in 30 minutes of physical activity, three times a week, outside the university program. As a result, the mean value of the attitude towards physical activity is slightly positive. 33% of young women's self-esteem is related to physical factors such as body image, frequency of physical activity, and attitude towards physical activity. …”
