In Part 11 of the study, the British Olympic track (sprint) squad cyclists demonstrated reductions in body fat index, % body fat and endomorphy (p > .05), increased Hb and PCV % (p > .05), and lowered HR at rest and in warm-up exercise (p > .05), but no change in leg power. Repeated interval sprints of short duration, maximal exercise on an "ergowheel" ergometer, at standardised power output, s...

Human-in-the-loop driving simulation aims to create the illusion of by stimulating driver’s sensory systems in as realistic conditions possible. However, simulators can only produce a subset stimuli that would be available real situation, depending on degree refinement their design. This must carefully chosen because it is crucial for human acceptability. Our focus design physical dynamic (i.e....

While psychological safety is widely acknowledged to be a crucial factor in determining how well teams function, little attention has been paid this phenomenon management education and HE more broadly. This highlights an important gap, given the ‘thorny’ nature, pervasive use, of group work. We contribute first examination intervention increase safety. Specifically, through two-phase mixed meth...

The opening shot looks down into the valley. We see snow-capped mountains in the distance and verdant fields before us. A horse and rider come into the scene from off camera, moving into the valley. We see first the horse as it rides away, bringing into view the rider whom we see only from the back. The shot then changes as the credits are imposed on a wide view of the valley stretched before u...

Micro-mobility vehicles such as electric bicycles, or e-bikes, are becoming one of the essential transportation modes in metropolitan areas, and most deliveries large cities dependent on them. Due to e-bike’s popularity vulnerability, e-bike crash occurrence has become a major traffic safety problem many across world; finding important human factors affecting thus been an recent issue analysis....

Rider asymmetry is anecdotally associated with underperformance and injury. In this study, rider axial rotation (AR) and shoulder angle displacement (SAD) were measured using video analysis, and leg length inequality (LLI) was measured to assess any correlation between LLI, AR and SAD. Two video cameras, recording transverse and sagittal views, simultaneously filmed each of 17 female riders in ...

According to a widely held belief, compulsory savings are justified on efficiency grounds because they alleviate the following free rider problem: if the welfare state grants a minimum income to older persons, some of the young may find it optimal not to provide for retirement. The literature argues that compulsory savings can be used in order to overcome this problem. However, potential free r...

In the team literature there is much discussion about free-riding as a main obstacle for teams to achieve quality performance. Given its importance to team success, however, empirical study of the free-rider problem has lagged behind the conceptual work. So far, little research has been conducted in field settings to measure the scale of free-riding and investigate how the problem may deteriora...
