Background: Repetitive damage to the ankle joint causes chronic ankle instability, and studies comparing the effects of exercise in open and closed chains as a treatment method are very rare. Objectives: To investigate the effects of open and closed kinetic exercises on muscle activity and dynamic balance of ankle joint in adults with chronic ankle instability. Design: Single-blind randomized controlled trial. Methods: The selected 30 subjects are randomly divided into open kinetic chain exercise experimental group (EGI, n=10), closed kinetic chain exercise experimental group (EGII, n=10), and stretching control group (CG, n=10). Open and closed kinetic exercises lasted 30 minutes three times a week for six weeks and stretching exercises performed four actions for 20 seconds and five sets. The measurement tools using surface electromyography to measure muscle activity in the ankle joint. The dynamic balance of the ankle was evaluated using the Y-Balance test. Results: Following the intervention, closed and open kinetic chain exercise group showed significant difference in tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscle activity and dynamic balance (P<.05). However, no significant difference in tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscle activity and dynamic balance between closed and open kinetic chain exercise group (P<.05). Conclusion: This study provides evidence that closed and open kinetic chain exercise can be presented as an effective exercise for the muscle activity of ankle muscle and dynamic balance of the subject with chronic ankle instability.

In this paper, we introduce the notions of mean open and closed sets in topological spaces, and obtain some properties of such sets. We observe that proper paraopen and paraclosed sets are identical to mean open and closed sets respectively.

Nakaoka and Oda ([1] and [2]) introduced the notion of maximal open sets and minimal closed sets in topological spaces. In this paper, we introduce new classes of sets called maximal $\theta$-open sets, minimal $\theta$-closed sets, $\theta$-semi maximal open and $\theta$-semi minimal closed and investigate some of their fundamental properties.

We obtain some conditions for disconnectedness of a topological space in terms of maximal and minimal open sets, and some similar results in terms of maximal and minimal closed sets along with interrelations between them. In particular, we show that if a space has a set which is both maximal and minimal open, then either this set is the only nontrivial open set in the space or the space is disconnected. We also obtain a result concerning a minimal open set on a subspace.

This article is devoted to introduce the notion of fuzzy cleanly covered fuzzy topological spaces; in addition two strong fuzzy separation axioms are studied. By means of fuzzy maximal open sets some properties of fuzzy cleanly covered fuzzy topological spaces are obtained and also by means of fuzzy maximal closed sets few identical results of a fuzzy topological spaces are investigated. Through fuzzy minimal open and fuzzy maximal closed sets, two strong fuzzy separation axioms are discussed.

The vast mechanical systems could be classified as closed loop system, open loop system and open & closed (switching) system. In the closed loop system, the kinematics and dynamics of 3-D mechanisms will be reviewed and closed form solutions using the direction cosine matrix method and reflection transformation method will be introduced. In the open loop system, kinematic & dynamic analysis methods regarding the redundant system which has more degrees of freedom in joint space than those of task space are reviewed and discussed. Finally, switching system which changes its phase between closed and open loop motion is investigated with the principle of dynamical balance. Among switching systems, the human gait in biomechanics and humanoid in robotics are presented.

In this paper, the concept of $PC^{\star}$-closed sets is introduced. $PC^{\star}$-closed sets contain $pre^*_I$-open and $pre^*_I$-closed sets, ${\mathcal{RPC}}_I$ and $pre^*_I$-closed sets, ${\mathcal{RPC}}_I$ and weakly $I_{rg}$-closed sets.

In this paper, we introduce a notion of cleanly covered topological spaces along with two strong separation axioms. Some properties of cleanly covered topological spaces are obtained in term of maximal open sets including some similar properties of a topological space in term of maximal closed sets. Two strong separation axioms are also investigated in terms of minimal open and maximal closed sets.

The purpose of this article is to study few properties of fuzzy mean open and fuzzy mean closed sets in fuzzy topological spaces. Further, the idea of fuzzy mean clopen set is introduced. It is observed that a fuzzy mean clopen set is both fuzzy mean open and fuzzy mean closed but the converse is not true.

In this paper, we show a necessary and sufficient condition for QHC spaces to be S-closed. T. Thomson introduced S-closed spaces in [2]. A topological space X is said to be S-closed if every semi-open cover of X admits a finite subfamily such that the closures of whose members cover the space, where a set A is semi-open if and only if there exists an open set U such that U.contnd.A.contnd.Cl U. A topological space X is quasi-H-closed (denote QHC) if every open cover has a finite subfamily whose closures cover the space. If a topological space X is Hausdorff and QHC, then X is H-closed. It is obvious that every S-closed space is QHC but the converse is not true [2]. In [1], Cameron proved that an extremally disconnected QHC space is S-closed. But S-closed spaces are not necessarily extremally disconnected. Therefore we want to find a necessary and sufficient condition for QHC spaces to be S-closed. A topological space X is said to be semi-locally S-closed if each point of X has a S-closed open neighborhood. Of course, a locally S-closed space is semi-locally S-closed.
