Hill’s Equation in Arm Push of Shot Put and in Braking of Arm Rotation | Chapter 05 | Advances in Applied Science and Technology Vol. 6
This chapter consists of the earlier
study of shot put where A.V. Hill’s force-velocity relationship was transformed
into a constant maximum power model consisting of three different components of
power. In addition, the braking phase of the arm rotation movement was examined
where Hill’s equation was applied for accelerated motions. Hill’s
force-velocity relationship was tested by fitting it into two arm push
measurements of shot put experiments and one braking phase of whole arm
rotation. Theoretically derived equation for accelerated motions was in
agreement with the measured data of shot put experiments and the braking phase
of the whole arm rotation experiment. Maximum power in these experiments was
also tested by three different equations and two of them seemed to function
well. The progress of movement in the studied experiments was concluded to be
as follows: 1) the state of low speed and maximal acceleration which applies to
the hypothesis of constant force, 2) the state of high speed and maximal power
which applies to the hypothesis of constant power.
