Training for muscular power adaptations : the role of contraction type and velocity [PDF]
Muscular power, an integral component in most sport, is the product of force and velocity. Power is often viewed as synonymous, yet incorrectly, with strength. Where power has an inherent speed component, strength is independent of movement velocity, and

Maximal fascicle shortening velocity measurements in human medial gastrocnemius muscle in vivo
This study evaluated the maximal fascicle shortening velocity under near‐no‐load conditions. In addition, we determined whether the rate of torque development during ballistic contraction was related to maximal fascicle shortening velocity. Under passive

Assessment of reliability in isokinetic testing among adolescent basketball players [PDF]
Background. The reproducibility of day-to-day testing of isokinetic concentric and eccentric muscular actions among adolescent basketball players aged 14 to 16 years and relationships of mean within-subject variation in two isokinetic testing sessions ...

Ensemble Dependence of the Transient Fluctuation Theorem [PDF]
The Fluctuation Theorem gives an analytical expression for the probability of observing second law violating dynamical fluctuations, in nonequilibrium systems. At equilibrium statistical mechanical fluctuations are known to be ensemble dependent.
