The effect of wind on jumping distance in ski jumping depends on jumpers' aerodynamic characteristics.

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2022
Several studies have suggested re-evaluation of the wind compensation system (WCS) of the International Ski Federation (FIS). It was introduced in 2009, and since then, the system has been modified considerably, but major shortcomings have still remained.

A heuristic model-based approach for compensating wind effects in ski jumping.

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2021
Wind influences the jump length in ski jumping, which raises questions about the fairness. To counteract the wind problem, the International Ski Federation has introduced a wind compensation system in 2009: time-averaged wind velocity components ...

Differences in the perception of value in tennis and ski jumping

open access: yesZbornik radova
In the research, with the help of a written questionnaire, we determined the connection between the values of ski jumpers and tennis players. 134 ski jumpers aged 12 to 28 and 75 tennis players of both sexes, men aged 13 to 44 and women aged 13 to 24 ...

Dynamics of the In-Run in Ski Jumping: A Simulation Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Biomechanics, 2005
A ski jumper tries to maintain an aerodynamic position in the in-run during changing environmental forces. The purpose of this study was to analyze the mechanical demands on a ski jumper taking the in-run in a static position. We simulated the in-run in ski jumping with a 4-segment forward dynamic model (foot, leg, thigh, and upper body).

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...
