Prediction of vertical jump height from anthropometric factors in male and female martial arts athletes [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Vertical jump is an index representing leg/kick power. The explosive movement of the kick is the key to scoring in martial arts competitions.

VERTICAL JUMPING AND SIGNALED AVOIDANCE [PDF]
Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1988 This paper reports an experiment intended to demonstrate that the vertical jumping response can be learned using a signaled‐avoidance technique. A photoelectric cell system was used to record the response. Twenty female rats, divided equally into two groups, were exposed to intertrial intervals of either 15 or 40 s.

Simple model of a standing vertical jump [PDF]
European Journal of Physics, 2021 Abstract In this paper we use Newton’s third law to deduce the simplest model of a system that can perform a standing vertical jump—a two-segmented object with an initial constant repulsive force between the segments, followed by an abrupt attractive force.
