A Simple Method for Monitoring Springboard Reaction Force in Gymnastic Vaulting
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work was to found a new method for measuring the reaction force of springboard (BRF), which provides scientific supports to the diagnosis of take-off technique. The elastic moduli of GYMNOVA soft and hard springboards were derived by method of mechanics of material, then the springboards were tested in static, dynamic experiments and computer simulations. An equation with different coefficients for soft and hard spring boards, which describe force-displacement of the springboard, F=kx+cx was obtained and validated. This equation can be used with convenience by employing a high speed camera shooting to the springboard for rapidly monitoring the take-off BRF, and provide scientific supports in the enhancement of vaulting techniques, and in injury preventions as well.

Repository A method for synchronising digitised video data
This paper presents a general method for synchronising digitised video data using a mathematical approach based upon the DLT reconstruction technique. The method was tested using digitised data from genlocked video recordings of gymnastic vaulting, tumbling, high bar and rings. The mean synchronisation error was less than 0.002 s for vaulting and less than 0.001 s for the other activities.

متن کاملThe Effect of a Long-Term Artistic Gymnastic Training on Reaction Time of Male Gymnasts
Since there are variations in the reaction times of athletes in different sports, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a specific training program on a simple reaction time of male gymnasts. In this longitudinal study, fourteen adolescent gymnasts (mean age 12.6 ± 2.1 years) were randomly selected to work out for 15 months in the artistic group. Simple reaction ti...
متن کاملA Computer Simulation of Kinetics in Landing of Gymnastics Vaulting
Gymnasts suffer from high impact loadings during landing and/or dismounts, and injuries are not unusual. The aims of this work were to develop a method for measuring or calculating the landing GRFs, which can be applied in practice and/or competitions, and to get loadings upon lower limbs during vaulting landings. A multi-body model with 19 segments and 52 freedoms was developed on the biomecha...
متن کاملThe Spring-mass Model for Walking
INTRODUCTION In general, two different models are employed when addressing animal and human locomotion on a simple mechanical level: the inverted pendulum model for walking, where the body is reduced to a point mass m at the center of mass (COM) vaulting over a rigid stance leg of length l0, and the spring-mass model for running or hopping, where the rigid stance leg is substituted by a compres...
