Sensors, 2015 This study uses inertial sensors to measure ski jumper kinematics and joint dynamics, which was until now only a part of simulation studies. For subsequent calculation of dynamics in the joints, a link-segment model was developed. The model relies on the

Impact of ski run construction on atypical channel head development
Science of The Total Environment, 2019 The development of ski infrastructure in mountainous areas has a significant impact on the development of erosion landforms and modification of existing landforms on slopes. The main purpose of our study was to determine the effects of ski run construction and artificial snowmaking on the development of channel heads and drainage lines as well as ...

On the Influence of Microtopography on the Sliding Performance of Cross Country Skis
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2021 The sliding performance of cross country skis is mainly influenced by the ability of the ski base to minimize capillary forces and contact area. Whereas, the first condition depends on hydrophobicity, the second one is controlled by the ski grinding ...

Exercise economy in skiing and running [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2014 Substantial inter-individual variations in exercise economy exist even in highly trained endurance athletes. The variation is believed to be determined partly by intrinsic factors. Therefore, in the present study, we compared exercise economy in V2-skating, double poling, and uphill running.
