The ability of the human body to generate maximal power is linked to a host of performance
outcomes and sporting success. Power-force-velocity relationships characterize limits of the …

This study aimed to validate a simple field method for determining force–and power–velocity
relationships and mechanical effectiveness of force application during sprint running. The …

This study aimed to compare the force (F)–velocity (v)–power (P)–time (t) relationships of
female and male world‐class sprinters. A total of 100 distance–time curves (50 women and …

Many university texts on mechanics consider the effect of air drag force, using the slowing
down of a parachute as an example. Very few discuss what happens when the drag force is …

Abstract Yu, J, Sun, Y, Yang, C, Wang, D, Yin, K, Herzog, W, and Liu, Y. Biomechanical
insights into differences between the mid-acceleration and maximum velocity phases of …

Background: The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on
the effects of caffeine supplementation on time trial performance and associated …

This paper addresses the challenge of assessing relatedness and functional
interdependence through connecting passes within invasion games, which may offer …

A macroscopic view of sprint mechanics during an acceleration phase, and notably athlete's
propulsion capacities, can be given by Force-velocity (Fv) and Power-velocity (Pv) …

The pedestrian fundamental diagram, which describes the relationship between speed, flow
and density, is one of the key concepts for the design of pedestrian facilities. It allows to …

In a 100 m sprint race, athletes are unable to maintain their maximum velocity through the
finish line. The aim of this study was to investigate the contributions of step length and step …
