Is the Energy Cost of Rowing a Determinant Factor of Performance in Elite Oarsmen?
In elite oarsmen, the rowing ergometer is a valuable tool for both training and studying rowing performance determinants. However, the energy cost of rowing, often reported as a determinant of performance, has never been described for ergometer rowing ...

Reversing the row order for the row-by-row frontal method [PDF]
The efficiency of the row-by-row frontal method for the solution of unsymmetric sparse systems of linear equations is dependent on the row ordering used. Numerical experience has suggested that it can be advantageous to reverse a given row ordering.

Improving rowing performance by adjusting oar blade size and angle
The principal aim of the work presented here is to investigate and demonstrate that a forward tilted rowing blade would result in a more efficient and effective motion of the blade through the water that would result in a higher boat speed when an equal ...

Configurable 3D Rowing Model Renders Realistic Forces on a Simulator for Indoor Training
In rowing, rowers need outdoor and indoor training to develop a proficient technique. Although numerous indoor rowing machines have been proposed, none of the devices can realistically render the haptic, visual, and auditory characteristics of an actual ...

Don't rock the boat: how antiphase crew coordination affects rowing. [PDF]
It is generally accepted that crew rowing requires perfect synchronization between the movements of the rowers. However, a long-standing and somewhat counterintuitive idea is that out-of-phase crew rowing might have benefits over in-phase (i.e ...

A long rowing stroke length is crucial for adequate rowing performance. Therefore, the relocation of the oar from traditional “in front” (NORM) to “behind the rotation axis” (GATE) may increase (para) rowing performance. Thus, 15 able-bodied rowers (21.4
