چکیده

Knee injuries in skiers have unique epidemiology and distinct mechanisms. Conversely, evaluation and treatment of the skier's knee is similar to evaluation and treatment of knee injuries in other athletes. A greater understanding of the epidemiology and mechanisms of knee injuries in skiers may aid arthroscopic clinicians and related researchers treating or investigating knee injuries in both skiers and in other athletes.

Comparative evaluation of two skiing simulators as functional training devices for recreational skiers.

The aims of this study were to examine two ski simulators, Skimagic and Skier's Edge, and to evaluate their efficacy as functional training devices for skiers. Vertical ground reaction forces, knee flexion angle kinematics and muscles activity were recorded on these devices and compared with those measured in similar condition while skiing on snow. Five ski instructors performed three randomize...

Estimation of Alpine Skier Posture Using Machine Learning Techniques

High precision Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements are becoming more and more popular in alpine skiing due to the relatively undemanding setup and excellent performance. However, GNSS provides only single-point measurements that are defined with the antenna placed typically behind the skier's neck. A key issue is how to estimate other more relevant parameters of the skier's b...

Dependence of ski jump length on the skier's body pose at the beginning of take-off.

A kinematical model of the ski jumper's body pose at the beginning of take-off was proposed. A method of measuring skier's body coordinates based on the results of video recordings and office information technologies was created. Kinematical parameters of the skier's body pose at the beginning of take-off were determined using sport competition results of 33 ski jumpers. Five parameters of the ...

Surgical treatment of skier's thumb injuries: case report and review of the literature.

Inappropriate treatment of skier's thumb injuries has been reported to result in chronic painful instability, weakness of pinch, and arthritis. Therefore, surgical treatment is recommended for those fractures with 2 mm or more of displacement, or significant articular involvement with incongruency or rotation. The goal of surgery is restoration of anatomy with stable fixation. In this study we ...

Using the power balance model to simulate cross-country skiing on varying terrain

The current study adapts the power balance model to simulate cross-country skiing on varying terrain. We assumed that the skier's locomotive power at a self-chosen pace is a function of speed, which is impacted by friction, incline, air drag, and mass. An elite male skier's position along the track during ski skating was simulated and compared with his experimental data. As input values in the ...
