Abstract:
This thesis examines the linear swimming motion of Carangiform fish, and investigates how to improve the swimming performance of robotic fish within the fields of kinematic modeling and mechanical engineering, in a successful attempt to replicate the high performance of real fish. Intensive research was conducted in order to study the Carangiform swimming motion, where observational studies of the common carp were undertaken. Firstly, a full-body length Carangiform swimming motion is proposed to coordinate the anterior, mid-body and posterior displacements in an attempt to reduce the large kin

Performance when gliding in the streamlined position depends on a swimmer’s morphological characteristics, body orientation and water characteristics. The purpose of this thesis was twofold. First to identify and assess the effect of controllable factors that contribute to glide performance and second to form the foundations of an improved approach of simulating the fluid flow around the swimmers’ body. To address the purposes of the thesis four investigations were conducted. Study 1. The effect of the head position on glide performance was investigated. When the high, medium and low head posi

This thesis examines the swimming performance of mackerel (Scomber scombrus L.), herring (Clupea harengus L.), and saithe (Pollachius virens (L.)), and relates it with the mechanical and the electrical properties and the volume of the red and the white swimming muscle. Analysis of kinematics of swimming from cine films and video recordings allows development of a mathematical model of swimming movements and examination of thrust and power output during swimming. This output can be scaled for the time of the tail beat cycle and the size of the fish. Swimming of mackerel at low speeds is related

Abstract:
Synchronized swimming (SS) is a sports discipline combining swimming, dancing and gymnastics. Synchronized Swimmers perform a choreography called routine consisting of elaborate moves in the water accompanied by music. Previous research investigating SS from a physiological perspective has mainly used figures or fractionated and/or simulated routine protocols during training, although the nature of sports leads to continuous very demanding exercises (~2-4 minutes) performed at increasingly higher levels of intensity with almost 50% of this time underwater. In addition, different from training,

Abstract:
Swimming performance is primarily judged on the overall time taken for a swimmer to complete a specified distance performing a stroke that complies with current regulations defined by the Fédération Internationale de Natation (FINA), the International governing body of swimming. There are three contributing factors to this overall time; the start, free swimming and turns. The contribution of each of these factors is event dependent; for example, in a 50m event there are no turns, however, the start can be a significant contributor.

However, since fish swimming ability data is scarce for many fish species, predictions of a culvert's barrier status can be inaccurate and overly conservative, possibly leading to misclassification or uneconomical design.

Abstract:
Introdução: A respiração é um importante processo fisiológico, onde a musculatura inspiratória tem papel fundamental no desempenho de atletas nadadores. O aumento da resistência e força muscular inspiratória, adquiridos a partir do treinamento, tem sido associado a um melhor desempenho em diversas modalidades esportivas. Sendo assim, os objetivos deste estudo foram: descrever parâmetros de função pulmonar, teste de desempenho, espessura do diafragma e metaborreflexo muscular, suas correlações entre os nadadores de elite e suas especificidades nas modalidades de natação e analisar o efeito de u

Abstract:
The ability to apply force is crucial in competitive swimming, particularly in short distances. Accordingly, literature has shown that high values of upper-body strength and power are determinant to succeed in competitive swimming. Thus, dry-land Strength and Conditioning (S&C) is a common practice in swimming prescription in order to improve performance or prevent injuries. Nevertheless, research over the effects of S&C training in swimming performance is scarce and far from consensus. The main purpose of this thesis was to analyze the effect of S&C training programs on swimming perform
