Abstract:
AbstractPlyometric exercises such as drop jumping and bounding offer athletes a substantiated means of enhancing athletic performance. Between the two exercises, reactive measurement using bounding (reactive bounding coefficient [RBC]) has received scant attention within the domain of training and conditioning. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the viability of utilising a speed-bounding exercise to assess horizontal reactive strength. Eleven young, male elite sprinters (age: 17.8 ± 1.3 yr; body height: 1.72 ± 0.06 m; body mass: 66.05 ± 6.10 kg; best 100 m sprint time: 10.77 ± 0.32 s) were tested for static jumps (SJ), drop jumps (DJ), 10 speed-bounding (RBC10), and 50 m sprint performance. Between-group comparisons based on sprint ability (fast [FSG] vs. slow [SSG] sprint-group) and correlation coefficients were computed subsequently. The FSG (n = 5; 50 m time: 5.82 ± 0.11 s; RBC10: 7.46 ± 0.27) performed significantly better in the RBC10 (p = 0.036) than the SSG (n = 5; 50 m time: 6.09 ± 0.13 s; RBC10: 7.09 ± 0.25). A very high correlation was attained between the RBC10 and the criterion measure, the SJ (r = 0.83). Additionally, RBC10 appeared to be correlated with 30, 50, 10-30 and 30-50 m sprint times (r = -0.52 to -0.60). This positive trend, however, was not observed for the DJ reactive strength index (trivial to moderate correlations). Good reliability was shown for the RBC10 and all sprint distances (“1.5% coefficient variation). Furthermore, all sprinters attained ground contact times of 0.12-0.18 s during the RBC10 which was indicative of fast stretch-shortening cycles during movement, suggesting that the RBC10 could be utilised to assess plyometric ability and enhance sprint performance. Overall, the RBC10 seems able to discriminate between the FSG and the SSG, indicating it has acceptable levels of validity and reliability.

Abstract:
AbstractJump distance per step in bounding exercises from the standing position increases with increasing number of steps. We examined the hypothesis that the joint kinetic variables of the stance leg would also increase accordingly. Eleven male athletes (sprinters and jumpers) performed bounding exercise, starting from the double-leg standing posture, and covered the longest distance possible by performing a series of seven forward alternating single-leg jumps. Kinematic and kinetic data were calculated using the data by a motion capture system and force platforms. Hip extension joint work were decreased at third step (1st: 1.07±0.22, 3rd: 0.45±0.15, 5th: 0.47±0.14 J•kg−1; partial η2: 0.86), and hip abduction joint power were increased (1st: 7.53±3.29, 3rd: 13.50±4.44, 5th: 21.37±9.93 W•kg−1; partial η2: 0.58); the knee extension joint power were increased until the third step (1st: 14.43±4.94, 3rd: 17.13±3.59, 5th: 14.28±2.86 W•kg−1; partial η2: 0.29), and ankle plantar flexion joint power increased (1st: 34.14±5.33, 3rd: 37.46±4.45, 5th: 40.11±5.66 W•kg−1; partial η2: 0.53). These results contrast with our hypothesis, and indicate that increasing the jump distance during bounding exercises is not necessarily accompanied by increases in joint kinetics of stance leg. Moreover, changes in joint kinetics vary at different joints and anatomical axes.

Abstract:
The objectives of this study are to study and test the effect of using the effect of the single leg and double leg bounding exercise program (BEP) on the improvement of physical agility, strength, balance, and leg muscle power. The subjects of this study were 42 students of Physical Education class 2017 STKIP PGRI Jombang.This type of research is quantitative with quasi-experimental techniques. Sampling using the Solvin formula and purposive sampling technique. The process of taking data from the initial test and the final test uses the leg dynamometer test to determine leg muscle strength, side step test for agility, force plate test for leg muscle power, and balance beam test for balance.The results of the study on the normality and homogeneous tests showed normal and homogeneous data results with a significance value above 0.05. The mean difference test was carried out using the paired test and the Manova test. The method of increasing the agility, strength, balance and leg muscle power has a significant improvement with the two experimental methods.The conclusion of this study is that the bounding exercise program can significantly increase the agility, strength, balance and leg muscle power. However, from the two exercises the increase was greater in the group using the single leg bounding type of exercise.

Abstract:
This study was undertaken to compare force-time characteristics, muscle power, and electromyographic (EMG) activities of the leg muscles in maximal sprinting and in selected bounding and jumping exercises. Seven male sprinters performed maximal bounding (MB), maximal stepping (MS), maximal hopping with the right (MHR) and left (MHL) legs, and maximal sprint running (MR). These “horizontal” exercises and running were performed on a force platform. EMG activity was telemetered unilaterally from five leg muscles during each trial. The results indicated significant (p < .001) differences among the studied exercises in velocity, stride length, stride rate, flight time, and contact time. Also, significant differences were noticed in reactive forces (p < .01-.001) and power (p < .01) among the performances, whereas only insignificant differences were observed in EMG patterns. The average resultant forces during the braking and propulsion phases in MS, MHR, and MHL were greater (p < .001) than in MR and MB. Stepping and hopping are cyclic and sprint-specific and may be used as strength exercises for sprinters because of great strength demand.

Abstract:
Millions of high school students take Advanced Placement (AP) courses, which can provide college credit. Using nationally representative data, I identify a diverse set of higher education outcomes that are related to receipt of AP college credit. Institution fixed effects regression reduces bias associated with varying AP credit policies and student sorting across higher education. Results indicate college credits earned in high school are related to reduced time to degree, double majoring, and more advanced coursework. Bounding exercises suggest the time to degree and double major outcomes are not likely driven by bias from unobserved student characteristics. Policies used to support earning college credits while in high school appear to enhance undergraduate education and may accelerate time to degree.

Abstract:
This paper presents an action recognition approach based on shape and action descriptors that is aimed at the classification of physical exercises under partial occlusion. Regular physical activity in adults can be seen as a form of non-communicable diseases prevention, and may be aided by digital solutions that encourages individuals to increase their activity level. The application scenario includes workouts in front of the camera, where either the lower or upper part of the camera’s field of view is occluded. The proposed approach uses various features extracted from sequences of binary silhouettes, namely centroid trajectory, shape descriptors based on the Minimum Bounding Rectangle, action representation based on the Fourier transform and leave-one-out cross-validation for classification. Several experiments combining various parameters and shape features are performed. Despite the presence of occlusion, it was possible to obtain about 90% accuracy for several action classes, with the use of elongation values observed over time and centroid trajectory.

Abstract:
The wheel-legged hybrid robot (WLHR) is capable of adapting height and wheelbase configuration to traverse obstacles or rolling in confined space. Compared with legged and wheeled machines, it can be applied for more challenging mobile robotic exercises using the enhanced environment adapting performance. To make full use of the deformability and traversability of WHLR with parallel Stewart mechanism, this paper presents an optimization-driven planning framework for WHLR with parallel Stewart mechanism by abstracting the robot as a deformable bounding box. It will improve the obstacle negotiation ability of the high degree-of-freedoms robot, resulting in a shorter path through adjusting wheelbase of support polygon or trunk height instead of using a fixed configuration for wheeled robots. In the planning framework, we firstly proposed a pre-calculated signed distance field (SDF) mapping method based on point cloud data collected from a lidar sensor and a KD -tree-based point cloud fusion approach. Then, a covariant gradient optimization method is presented, which generates smooth, deformable-configuration, as well as collision-free trajectories in confined narrow spaces. Finally, with the user-defined driving velocity and position as motion inputs, obstacle-avoidancing actions including expanding or shrinking foothold polygon and lifting trunk were effectively testified in realistic conditions, demonstrating the practicability of our methodology. We analyzed the success rate of proposed framework in four different terrain scenarios through deforming configuration rather than bypassing obstacles.

Abstract:
The equations for fluid substitution in a sample with known porosity and the mineral’s and pore-fluid’s elastic moduli are well-documented. Discussions continue on how to conduct fluid substitution in practical situations where more than one fluid phase is present and the porosity and mineralogy are not precisely defined. We pose a different question: If we agree on a fluid substitution method, and also agree that at partial saturation the bulk modulus of the “effective” pore fluid is the harmonic average of those of the components, can we conduct fluid substitution directly on the seismic reflection amplitude? To address this question, we conducted forward modeling synthetic exercises: We systematically varied the porosity, clay content, and thickness of the reservoir and assumed that the properties of the bounding shale are fixed. Next, we used a velocity-porosity model to compute the elastic properties of the dry-rock frame and applied Gassmann’s equation to compute these properties in wet rock as well as at partial gas saturation. After that, we generated prestack synthetic seismic reflections at the top of the reservoir at full saturation and at partial saturation, and related one to the other. We found that within our assumption framework, there is an almost linear relation between the intercepts of the P-to-P reflectivity for the wet and gas reservoir. The same is true for the gradients. We have provided best-linear-fit equations that summarize these results. We applied this technique to field data and found that we can approximately predict the seismic amplitude at a gas reservoir from that measured at a wet reservoir, given that all other properties of the rock remain fixed. The solution given here should be treated as a method, meaning it should be tested and modified for various rock types and textures.
