Análisis de la mejora en el rendimiento en el test de 20 minutos en diez remeros de élite

En el siguiente estudio se analiza, mediante el test de 20 minutos, la mejora en el rendimiento de diez remeros pertenecientes a un club de elite. Estos sujetos, se sometieron a dos test en diferentes fechas de la temporada. Se hizo una comparación entre ambas pruebas. Las variables analizadas en esa comparación y que muestran la evolución de los deportistas son las siguientes: wattios, ritmo y frecuencia cardiaca. Analizando los wattios se calculó la potencia obtenida durante todo el test, con el ritmo nos referimos a las paladas por minuto y mirando la frecuencia cardiaca pudimos obtener dos indicadores: cuál es el porcentaje de la frecuencia cardiaca máxima con la que cada deportista realizó la prueba y en qué medida recuperaba cada sujeto.

Análisis de la percepción de la fatiga en test de fuerza-resistencia; comparación entre elementos elásticos y carga fija.

Al inicio del plan de tutorización que se ha llevado a cabo durante el presente curso 2014-2015, la idea que plantee, se relacionaba con aspectos del ámbito del entrenamiento de la actividad física, y más concretamente con el entrenamiento personal o personal coaching. Esta primera propuesta, debatida en las primeras reuniones con el tutor, fue descartada, y a posteriori, inicie un proceso de reflexión conjuntamente y bajo las directrices del tutor del trabajo, en el ámbito de la especificidad del trabajo de fuerza. Este trabajo de reflexión concluyó en la primera etapa del proceso de tutorización con la propuesta de un título provisional en relación al análisis comparado en los ejercicios de tracción con elementos elásticos y con carga fija, título inicial, que ha prefijado la estrategia del trabajo de fin de grado

Encircled energy measurement for focusing lens based on scanning Hartmann test

The encircled energy of a focusing lens is one of the parameters directly affecting the target efficiency in high-power laser facilities. The direct measurement method of the encircled energy for the focusing lens based on the scanning Hartmann test is proposed in this paper. With the scanning Hartmann test setup, the information in the whole aperture of the focusing lens can be achieved. The encircled energy can be obtained by analyzing the spot diagram on the focal plane of the focusing lens. In experiments, the encircled energy of an aspheric focusing lens is measured using this method. The measurement result is in good agreement with that derived from measurement data by an interferometer and the difference is 7.7%. (C) 2006 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

Sensitivity of wear rates in the micro-scale abrasion test to test conditions and material hardness

Micro-scale abrasion (ball cratering) tests were performed with different combinations of ball and bulk specimen materials, under different test conditions, such as load and abrasive slurry concentration. Wear modes were classified into two types: with rolling particle motion and with grooving particle motion. Wear rates observed with rolling particle motion were relatively insensitive to test conditions, whereas with grooving motion they varied much more. It is suggested that rolling abrasion is therefore a more appropriate mode if reproducible test results are desired. The motion of the abrasive particles can be reliably predicted from the knowledge of hardnesses and elastic properties of the ball and the specimen, and from the normal load and the abrasive slurry concentration. General trends in wear resistance measured in the micro-scale abrasion test with rolling particle motion are similar to those reported in tests with fixed abrasives with sliding particle motion, although the variation in wear resistance with hardness is significantly smaller. © 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Sources of variability in the free-ball micro-scale abrasion test

In the 'free-ball' version of the micro-scale abrasion or ball-cratering test the rotating ball rests against a tilted sample and a grooved drive shaft. Tests under nominally identical conditions with different apparatus commonly show small but significant differences in measured wear rate. An indirect method has been developed and demonstrated for continuous on-line measurement of the coefficient of friction in the free-ball test. Experimental investigation of the effects of sample tilt angle and drive shaft groove width shows that both these factors influence the stability of the rotation of the ball, and the shape of the abrasive slurry pool, which in turn affect the coefficient of friction in the wear scar area and the measured wear rate. It is suggested that in order to improve the reproducibility of this method the geometry of the apparatus should be specified. For the apparatus used in this work with a steel ball of 25 mm diameter, a sample tilt angle of 60-75° and a shaft groove width of about 10mm provided the most stable ball motion and a wear rate which showed least variability. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
