Title: Reliability of a load-carrying test by military personnel. Objectives: This study aims to determine the reliability of carrying a load of 15kg test designed for occupational testing of military personnel of the Czech Army. Methods: This theoretical-empirical work tested a deliberate set of students from the Military Branch at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport of Charles University. The research population consisted of 17 probands with an average age of 22.1 years, an average height of 179.4 cm and an average weight of 78.9 kg. It uses the reliability test-retest method. The probands underwent 8 timed trials, then recorded in Microsoft Excel. The recorded results in Microsoft Excel were converted to txt format and then descriptively and statistically analyzed in Jasp (0.17.1.0). An intraclass correlation coefficient of the ICC type of 3.1 was used to statistically assess the consistency of performance, accompanied by 95% confidence intervals [LL, UL]. Results: Performance across test trials showed a moderate level of consistency with ICC (3,1) = 0,725, [0,567, 0,866]. ICC values ≥ 0.5 were considered sufficiently consistent. Keywords: Stress test, occupational testing, reliability, load carriage, military, test-retest

Telvák, Radek ; Michalička, Vladimír (advisor) ; Braum, Zdeněk (referee)
Title: Analysis of dynamic strength of friction knots used in military climbing Objectives: The aim of this work is to determine the resulting impact force generated by selected friction systems at different values of the fall factor. To calculate what maximum values of auxiliary Reep cord length and maximum load weight can be achieved without system failure. Determine the correlation between the magnitude of the impact force and the slip length. Methods: This thesis describes an experiment in which the resulting impact force acting on a friction system at different drop factors was determined. A 6mm Reep cord and an 11mm rope and friction knots used in military climbing techniques were selected for analysis. Testing was carried out in a polygon on a drop tower. Each of the friction knots was subjected to 5 tests at the same fall factor. The individual knots were statistically compared with each other in terms of impact force and slip. Using direct proportionality, the maximum possible values of the auxiliary Reep cord length and the weight of the load were determined. A correlation analysis was used to establish a correlation between impact force and slip. Results: It was found that at all measured values of the fall factor, the Twist prusik achieved the lowest values of the resulting impact force...

Comparison of impact force values amongst improvised and traditional rope fixed instalations
Kučera, Václav ; Michalička, Vladimír (advisor) ; Gajdošík, Jan (referee)
Title: Comparison of impact force values amongst improvised and traditional rope fixed instalations. Objectives: The aim of this work is to measure the resultant impact forces acting on a climber during a fall from an improvised fixed installation, using an improvised ferrata set, by means of an experiment. Furthermore, to compare the measured impact force values with those already measured for traditional fixed installation using ferrata fall arresters. Methods: This paper describes an experiment in which the actual impact force acting on a climber during a fall from an improvised fixed installation using an improvised ferrata set was determined. The aim of the first experiment was to determine the values of the impact forces for a given length of fall. At the same time, to determine the maximum value of the impact force at which the reep cord forming the improvised ferrata set will not break. The second test aimed to determine the resultant values acting on the load when falling into the sag from the dynamic rope, which were then used to compare with the results of the first test. The purpose of the last test was to compare the resultant values of improvised and traditional fixed installations. Each fall length was tested for ten trials whereby after each fall the textile material was replaced...
