Sport technology conference, Malaysia Thursday, 9-10am

Dr. Wolfgang Potthast (K1) biomechanics and sport

muscle adaptation

ana-bolism (hypertrophy) neuronal adaptations strength increase

(BIO POSITIVE EFFECT)

muscle-tendon injuries kata-bolism (over training) strength decrease / injury

(BIO NEGATIVE EFFECTS)

bone -    diameter, length, density (can increase due to mechl load) -    damage injuries – periostitis, fractures, stress factures

cartilage -    stiffer, greater surface -    damage injuries – fissures, osteo arthiritis

biomechanics

performance enhancing

and

injury prevention

v close together – cannot easily distinguish

performance enhancing -    training interventions -    direct info in competition -    improvement of equipment

injury prevention -    ethical aspects -    economical aspects -    reduce non-training time

biomechanics, 4 bigger fields -    muscle activity (Electromiography) -    kinetics, kinematics – movement of pointof origin of body over time and space -    kinetic – forces acting on boil structures

focus on kinetic first -    forces measured through deformation -    which lead to electric signals (force-demaraction characteristics)

limited insights, as need insight into what is generating the force

for skiing

compact body ski position adv

correlations small

ballitic variables relevant in flight

performance determing factors -    3 dimensional kinematics -    difficult environmental conditions

time costs -    3 months prep -    1 day measuring -    1 year analysis

unapplicable for standard performance analysis -    manual digitisation – 12,000 clicks per trial

semi-automatic digitisation: -    reflective markers on landmarks -    video camera to record motion -    software detects markers

markerless tracking -    ‘time of fight’ – light beam detects movement; time difference to reach light sensor, can calculate -    3 dimensional reconstruction

injury prevention -    to prvent athletes fom injuries, t injury mechanisms have to be understood -    internal forces and mechl stresses must be known -    measuring external forces not sufficient

internal loadin measuremenet s- in vivo measurement of Achilles tendon Komi 91, komi and belli 96 - inserted pin into achilles and measured forces - subsequently used optic fibre technique – needle used to insert fibre, then removed leaving only fibre

in vivo measurement of intradiscal pressure nachemson and morris 63, wilkie et al 2001

in vivo measurment of hip joint forces (prosthetics) graichenn and Bergmann 1991

challenges accurate and valid diagnostic tools for strength measurements fast, easy tools for accurate motion capturing tools to detect motion of bony structures fast, non-invasive, without radiation (models?)

ME: philosophy of ‘new thinking’ something related to web 2.0

other factors influ effectiveness of organisation -    more than poduct

requires commitment by entire organisation to improve quality

implementing of change process

ME: link to theories of technological change

greatest effect on sport quality -    enhance team spirit
