Abstract

A twelve segment mathematical model consisting of simple geometric solids connected at joints is used to model an athlete as coupled rigid bodies in space. Video footage of an elite male athlete performing a 3.5 forward pike somersault (105B) off a 3 m springboard is digitised, and its parameters fed into the model. The authors use the model to see if it is theoretically possible for that athlete to perform the same 105B dive off a 1m springboard with the same parameters, where only the flight time is reduced. This is done by optimising the athletes' diving technique. Einleitung (geändert)
