Comparison of rider stability in a flapless saddle versus a conventional saddle

The horse-saddle-rider interaction.

Common causes of poor performance in horses include factors related to the horse, the rider and/or the saddle, and their interrelationships remain challenging to determine. Horse-related factors (such as thoracolumbar region pain and/or lameness), rider-related factors (such as crookedness, inability to ride in rhythm with the horse, inability to work the horse in a correct frame to improve cor...

Saddle-Point Dynamics: Conditions for Asymptotic Stability of Saddle Points

This paper considers continuously differentiable functions of two vector variables that have (possibly a continuum of) min-max saddle points. We study the asymptotic convergence properties of the associated saddle-point dynamics (gradient-descent in the first variable and gradientascent in the second one). We identify a suite of complementary conditions under which the set of saddle points is a...

Basic kinematics of the saddle and rider in high-level dressage horses trotting on a treadmill.

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY A comprehensive kinematic description of rider and saddle movements is not yet present in the scientific literature. OBJECTIVE To describe saddle and rider movements in a group of high-level dressage horses and riders. METHOD Seven high-level dressage horses and riders were subjected to kinematic measurements while performing collected trot on a treadmill. For a...
