2. 1. Optimized Pacing Strategies in Cross-Country Skiing and Time-Trial Road Cycling

   Author : David Sundström; Mats Tinnsten; Peter Carlsson; John Rasmussen; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optimization; numerical simulation; equations of motion; MMA; cross-country skiing; cycling; Optimering; numerisk simulering; rörelseekvationer; MMA; längdskidåkning; cykling;

   Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the analysis and optimization of pacing strategies in cross-country skiing and time-trial road cycling. In locomotive sports, it is well known that variable pacing strategies using changes in the distribution of power output are beneficial when external forces vary along the way. READ MORE

4. 2. Numerical optimization of pacing strategies in locomotive endurance sports

   Author : David Sundström; Mats Tinnsten; Peter Carlsson; Mikael Bäckström; Erik Bruun Simonsen; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pacing strategy; optimization; numerical simulation; equations of motion; method of moving asymptotes; cross-country skiing; cycling; Farthållningsstrategi; optimering; numerisk simulering; rörelseekvationer; method of moving asymptotes; längdskidåkning; cykling;

   Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the optimization of pacing strategies in two locomotive endurance sports; cross-country skiing and road cycling. It has been established that constant pace and variable power distributions are optimal if purely mechanical aspects of locomotion are considered in these sports. READ MORE

5. 3. Scientizing performance in endurance sports : The emergence of ‘rational training’ in cross-country skiing, 1930-1980

   Author : Daniel Svensson; Sverker Sörlin; Nina Wormbs; Leif Yttergren; Helena Tolvhed; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; History; environmental history; history of science; history of technology; landscape studies; cross-country skiing; Nordic skiing; endurance physiology; sport history; sportification; scientization; sport physiology; sport science; Sweden; Historiska studier av teknik; vetenskap och miljö; History of Science; Technology and Environment;

   Abstract : Elite athletes of today use specialized, scientific training methods and the increasing role of science in sports is undeniable. Scientific methods and equipment has even found its way into the practice of everyday exercisers, a testament to the impact of sport science. READ MORE

6. 4. Computational Biomechanics in Cross-country Skiing

   Author : Joakim L. Holmberg; Anders Klarbring; Ingrid Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computer simulation; Inverse dynamics; Musculoskeletal; Optimization; Simulation model; Sports; Computational Biomechanics; Cross‐country Skiing; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : Traditionally, research on cross‐country skiing biomechanics is based mainly on experimental testing alone. Trying a different approach, this thesis explores the possibilities of using computational musculoskeletal biomechanics for cross‐country skiing. As far as the author knows, this has not been done before. READ MORE

7. 5. Bioenergetic and Mechanical Modeling of Endurance Sports with Emphasis on Individualization

   Author : Julius Lidar; Mikael Bäckström; Mats Ainegren; David Sundström; Dietmar Saupe; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Endurance athletes strive to improve their race times by enhancing their physical abilities, techniques, tactics, and equipment. Numerical simulations can aid in this effort by enabling repeated testing under identical conditions, thus isolating the effect of a single variable of interest on race time. READ MORE
