Application Of An Integrated Metabolic Power Paradigm In Elite Soccer
… be established; 4) to investigate the average metabolic power (MP) on a soccer-specific test through direct (K4b2, PV̇O2) and indirect (GPS, PGPS) measurement of O2 consumption by di Prampero’s approach and modifying Minetti’s equation of C; 5) to investigate how different systems of play …

The application of maximal mean and critical speed and metabolic powers for the quantification of external load in soccer
… over the six durations within each match) and metabolic power (maximal mean metabolic power [MMPmet] maximal estimated metabolic power when data were averaged over the six durations within each match). Matchto- match coefficients of variation (CV) were greatest for sprint-speed running distance …

Evaluation of a pneumatic ankle-foot orthosis: portability and functionality
… Our lab has developed a pneumatically powered ankle-foot orthosis (PPAFO) to address some of these issues. In this dissertation, we address the issue of availability of portable pneumatic power sources, and we evaluate the short-term kinematic and metabolic impact of a bilateral, …

Design of a biomechanically synergistic exotendon suit
… Inspired Engineering Motion Capture Laboratory. Metabolic power was tested using a COSMED K4b2 system and surface electromyogram (sEMG) data was collected using a Delsys Trigno system. Five male subjects participated in six trials, walking on a treadmill at 1.25 m/s, carrying a 20 kg load in a …

Experimental and Simulation Based Dynamic Assessment of Flexion and Extension Movements of Torso
… Muscle forces were determined by minimizing the metabolic power while satisfying the equations of motion. Spinal loads were calculated as the vector sum of the muscle forces and the trunk weight. Abdominal activity was observed at the onset of flexion and at the end of extension. The multifidus …

Hummingbird Hovering Energetics and Flight Capacities Across Elevational Gradients
… by increasing wingbeat kinematics and mechanical power output, necessitating increased metabolic input, while at the same time aerobic metabolism is constrained by hypoxic conditions associated with increasing elevation. These limits may restrict the range of behaviours that can be aerobically …

Determining the neuromuscular and energetic requirements of loaded and unloaded sprint efforts through experimental modeling new integrated approaches
… understanding of the neuromuscular and metabolic demands placed on athletes during high-intensity actions. Despite the widespread use of Global Positioning System (GPS) technology in monitoring these demands, discrepancies between GPS-derived data and physiological responses measured …

DEVELOPMENT OF A MULTI-UNIT DEVICE FOR POSITIONAL TRACKING AND EXTERNAL LOAD ASSESSMENT IN FOOTBALL
… speed profiling, acceleration detection, and metabolic power estimation, which are critical for understanding player workload. Concerning distance covered, noise filtering, speed thresholding, and smoothing techniques were applied to the GNSS data in controlled settings, while track continuity …
