Kinematic Analysis of Tennis Serve
Havel, Michal ; Kočíb, Tomáš (advisor) ; Čichoň, Rostislav (referee)
Title: Kinematic Analysis of Tennis Serve. Objectives: To evaluate tennis serve realization in the selected performance category, to review speed of particular serve types and define the differences. To create detailed movement analysis of the slice serve from the right side of the court and set up a trajectory of the centre of gravity. Methods: Case study using kinematic 2D and 3D analysis was made. Results: We found out that the flat serve is the fastest type of serve. There are differences in the body centre of gravity trajectory by comparison with elite tennis players. We also found out that serving from the right side of the court is being hit higher, than from the left side. We assume there is a very close connection between serve speed and the point of impact. Keywords: tennis, serve, kinematic analysis, 2D, 3D

Posuzování mechaniky pohybu chladnokrevných koní
PISCOVÁ MANDOVÁ, Paulína
The most common breed of coldblooded horses in the Czech Republic are the Czech-Moravian Belgian horse, Silesian noriker and Noriker. Evaluation of the mechanics of movement is an important part of the estimation of their potential use for work, breeding value and possibly for sport. The aim of this study was to assess the evaluation mechanics of movement in walk and trot used in the Czech Republic. Afterwards, we evaluate the possibility of using objective methods and their effectiveness in breeding practice. Within the literature review there have been described the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the musculoskeletal system of horses that directly define their movement abilities. Furthermore, the most important breeds of coldblooded horses in the Czech Republic were characterized and then there was an overview of the characteristics of movement prepared, the methods of evaluation and comparison of the methods used in foreign breeder's associations. From the objective evaluation methods, the mechanics of movement has been selected a video graphic kinematic analysis, which is the best breeding practice exercisable. At a minimum cost, we could perform this analysis even under normal conditions for Czech farmers. The methodology of measurement was proven with an emphasis on the use of the data obtained from the objective evaluation of the mechanics of movement of coldblooded horses. Of the identified knowledge under certain circumstances we may recommend this method as a useful supplement to established evaluation methods in zootechnical practice.

Current concepts of double poling by classic technique in cross-country skiing.
Horyna, Roman ; Finková, Dana (advisor) ; Gnad, Tomáš (referee)
Title of the thesis: Current concepts of double poling by classic technique in cross-country skiing Object of the thesis: The spatial-temporal analysis of node points and kinetic phases of the kick double poling and double poling of selected competitors at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Liberec 2009. Method: A case study in which we used the kinematographic method for the analysis of the kick double poling and double poling of selected competitors. We analyzed the video of the 15-km classic in the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Liberec 2009. For the analysis we used the software APAS. Results: We performed spatial-temporal description of node points and kinetic phases of the kick double poling and double poling of selected competitors. We characterized current concepts of kick double poling technique, because selected competitors were relatively homogeneous set. By double poling we found out flexion-extension pattern in elbow, hip joints of slipping lower limb and partly in knee and ankle joints of slipping lower limb which results in generation of great propulsive force. Double poling becomes more significant driving element than push-off. Keywords: cross-country skiing, kick double poling, double poling, kinematic analysis, top competitors

Assessment of the timing of tennis strokes using kinematic analysis and surface electromyography
Harrer, Jakub ; Kočíb, Tomáš (advisor) ; Pravečková, Petra (referee)
Title: Assessment of the timing of tennis strokes using kinematic analysis and surface electromyography Aims: Assess the timing of tennis forhand, service and appropriate training exercises using kinematic analysis. Describe the activation of muscles in time for the chosen execution of the strokes by recording surface electromyography (SEMG). Compare the results of various executions and describe the differences between using the racquets with different parameters and between executions of various training exercises. Method: Case study using kinematic analysis and surface electromyography was made. Results: We have found out that the execution of the strokes using the players own racquet was the most stable. We have found the differences in timing while using various racquets. The heavier the equipment we are using in training exercise is the more different is the timing of this movement. We concluded that the chosen training exercises are inappropriate as the special exercises to improve coordination. Key words: tennis, timing, service, forhand, electromyographic analysis, kinematic analysis

Analysis and comparasion of squat exercise due to surface EMG
Orava, Boris ; Kračmar, Bronislav (advisor) ; Jebavý, Radim (referee)
ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: Analysis and comparasion of squat exercise due to surface EMG Objectives of dissertation: To measure and describe the structure involving specific muscles durring back squat, front squat and smith machine squat exercise. Method: Surface EMG analysis and simple kinematic analysis. Results: Activation of m. gluteus maximus was highest after the start of excentric movement. Main muscle working on the chase between the concentric and excentric movement was m. rectus femoris. Very similar timing and synergy were between m. erector spinae and m. biceps femoris. In this study was not higher activation of m. quadriceps femoris during front squat exercise, activation of m. gluteus maximus were also higher. Key words: squat, strengthening, bar, front squat, back squat, Smith machine squat, bodybuilding, weightlifting, powerlifting, EMG analysis, kinematic analysis 6

The age related changes in walk stereotype
Vojtová, Michaela ; Vacek, Jan (advisor) ; Babková, Lenka (referee)
1 Abstract: The aim of this study quantify and compare the differences in the dynamics of foot movement compared with static in adulthood and old age, focusing on the midstance phase. A secondary objective is to outline the relationship with the angular distribution of pressure on the sole. For measurements two measuring methods were used. The kinematic analysis named Qualysis was used as a main method and system of plantar pressure insoles Pedar X as a complementary method. The difference in measured distance of 1-MP calcaneus, 5MP - calcaneus and pronate angle of calcaneus was prooved using the statistical calculation, which confirmed the hypothesis of half clear a significant degree. Subsequently, the changes were further specified using the results of the distribution of maximum force and contact time of the soles.

Simulation of the 5th car door mechanism
Taušek, Martin ; Škoda, Jan (referee) ; Hadaš, Zdeněk (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with simulation of the 5th car door mechanism. The simulation runs in MSC.ADAMS software in which was made simulation model. The model contains several bodies which needed to have the same mechanical parameters as the CAD model of the real 5th door so the simulation was accurate. The opening of door is done by two gas springs, one on each side. These gas springs had to be correctly dimensioned to achieve fully opened door and safety movement as well. The thesis also deals with kinematic and dynamic analysis of the mechanism.
