Abstract:

Структура вольових якостей спортсмена залежить від обраного виду спорту [1]. Беззаперечно спортивна діяльність тісно пов’язана з труднощами, які стають на шляху спортсмена. Під тиском жорстких протистоянь, які часто можна побачити у великому спорті в атлетів формується їх індивідуальні вольові прояви, тобто здатність керувати собою, своїми діями, вчинками, думками, переживаннями для досягнення свідомо поставленої мети. Мета – виявити різнобічні труднощі в прояві вольових якостей спортсменів зі спортивної ходьби.

Abstract:

The use of a pattern of accumulated bouts of exercise has become enshrined in recent public health recommendations. Although there is epidemiological evidence to support this, the experimental evidence for such recommendations is limited. The four studies described in this thesis investigated the effects of different patterns of exercise on fitness, cardiovascular risk and selected psychological parameters.

Abstract:

Human locomotion is phenomenon that is extraordinarily complex. It is evident that a complete description of locomotion involves consideration of kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activity of the extremities in all of their various movements. Race walking (RW) is a form of upright locomotion that differs from normal walking and running by its form dictated by the International Amateur Athletics Federation (IAAF). Despite the similarities to both normal walking (NW) and running (RU), RW has not been the subject of equally intensive investigations. This study explores the comprehensive biomechani

Dynamic loading profiles beneath the human foot during sideslope walking were determined and differences to level walking established. The contact area of the foot was measured, and the arch index derived from the footprint. Thirty healthy adults walked on a tillable walkway which had a polymer sensor pressure platform mounted at the mid-point. The sideways tilt could be adjusted in 2° increments from level to 8°. By walking in both directions on the sideslope, volunteers placed their right foot in either the upslope or downslope position. Loading profiles and contact areas were recorded for u

This thesis aimed to investigate a novel way to explore changes in gaze behaviour, whilst walking, in frail populations. Initially three studies were conducted to establish how similar gaze behaviour recorded during walking was to that recorded whilst scene viewing. Duration of time and number of times different features were fixated were found to be similar in the three experiments. Older adults were assessed for falling risk and split into higher risk of falling (HROA) and lower risk of falling (LROA) groups. Their gaze behaviour was recorded whilst scene viewing along with a group of young

In clinical "gait analysis", standard protocols have been widely validated and quantitative analysis has become a powerful tool for surgical decision and for post-operative and rehabilitative monitoring.

Abstract:

Empirical evidence suggests that parameters of human gait (e.g. step frequency, step length) tend to minimize energy expenditure. However, it is unclear if individuals can adapt to dynamic environments in real time, i.e. continuously optimize energy expenditure, and to what extent. Two coupled oscillator systems were used to test the learned interactions of individuals within dynamic environments: (1) experienced farmworkers carrying oscillating loads on a flexible bamboo pole and (2) individuals walking on a treadmill while strapped to a mechatronics oscillator system providing periodic force

Judging time-to-contact with a target is an important criterion for avoiding harm in everyday walking and running tasks, and maximizing performance in high-velocity sporting tasks.

The first three experiments examined novice performers (Each n=12, 6 males, 6 females), whilst the last experiment examined expert gymnasts (n=5). Two reference strips with alterna

Abstract:

Due to geometrical features, it is claimed that larger femoral heads in total hip replacement (THR) are superior in achieving normal biomechanics than smaller ones; and that hip resurfacing (RSF) is superior to THR. This has not been conclusively proven. Most studies have investigated level walking, which may not be demanding enough to highlight what could be small biomechanical differences between implants. Few biomechanical studies have compared more demanding tasks and not with patients with different femoral head sizes or RSF. This thesis aimed to address these omissions by investigating l

The forecasting of lower limb trajectories can anticipate movement characteristics that may predict the risk of tripping, slipping or balance loss.

Abstract:

Humans naturally select a point at which to transition from walking to running when gradually increasing locomotor speed. This point is known as the walk-to-run transition (WRT). The WRT is traditionally expressed in terms of speed and is known to occur within a close range of 2.1 m/s, which is an accepted heuristic (i.e., empirically based, rounded) threshold value. Very little research exists defining the WRT in terms of cadence (steps/min) despite the fact that spatial temporal aspects of gait underlying the WRT include this parameter. Preliminary evidence suggests that the WRT may be assoc
