A Biomecânica constitui um dos domínios das Ciências do Desporto onde o desenvolvimento tecnológico se tem revelado mais exuberante, nomeada e especialmente a par dos desenvolvimentos operados na computação e nas novas tecnologias em geral. A natação, por seu lado, constitui a referência maior de entre as modalidades desportivas praticadas na água e, de entre estas, aquela onde, aparentemente, a investigação ci...
Essential hypertension is a disease multifactorially triggered by genetic and environmental factors. The contribution of genetic polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and clinical risk factors to the development of resistant hypertension was evaluated in 90 hypertensive patients and in 115 normotensive controls living in Southwestern Brazil. Genotyping for insertion/deletion of angiotensin-c...
The purpose of this study was to analyse the relationship between time limit at the minimum velocity that elicits maximal oxygen consumption (TLim-vVO2max) and intra-cyclic variations of the velocity of the centre of mass (dv) in the four competitive swimming techniques. Twelve elite male swimmers SWIMMING BIOENERGETICS Rev Port Cien Desp 190 6(Supl.2) 185–197 swam their own best technique until exhaustion at t...
Getting fast results from the evaluation of swimmers is one of the most important goals to achieve with technological development in the field. The purpose of this study was to validate a real-time velocimetric device (speedometer) through the comparison of their results with computer assisted videogrametry. The sample included 7 international level swimmers (3 females and 4 males). Each swimmer performed four ...
A system for real time velocimetric feedback, and for immediate disposal of kinematica data, and model, synchronized with dual-media video images, will be presented.
The purpose of this study was to analyse the relationships between the total energy expenditure ( tot), the energy cost (EC), the intra-cycle variation of the horizontal velocity of displacement of centre of mass (dv) and the mean swimming velocity (v) in the four competitive swimming strokes.
The purpose of this study was to analyse the relationships between the total energy expenditure (tot), the energy cost (EC), the intra-cycle variation of the horizontal velocity of displacement of centre of mass (dv) and the mean swimming velocity (v) in elite butterfliers.
The purpose of the present study was to analyse the relationship between energy cost (C) and intra-cyclic speed fluctuations(dv) in breaststroke.
The purpose of this research was to develop, validate, and evaluate a biofeedback system for the technical training in breaststroke swimming. The system lied on the assessment of speed fluctuation curves of an anatomical landmark of the swimmer(hip).
