本研究の目的は, 力発揮能力改善を目的としたトレーニングであるクイックリフト (以下QL) 動作時の力発揮特性とそのメカニズムを検討することである. 代表的なQLであるパワークリーンを対象に挙上重量が大きい者と小さい者各6名の動作分析の結果, 最大挙上重量が大きい者は, 下肢関節最大トルクとセグメント間のエネルギの流出入量が大きく, 特有の反動動作が見られた. さらに, 最大挙上重量が大きい者と小さい者各10名の筋電図分析と動作分析の結果, 挙上重量が大きい者と小さい者間の下肢関節伸展筋の筋活動度は同等で, 屈筋と伸筋の筋活動から推定した関節剛性と関節トルク立ち上がり速度は挙上重量が大きい者の方が反動動作の前後において大きな値を示した. このことから, QL時の大きな力発揮には下肢関節の剛性を巧みに制御し, エネルギ伝達の効率化を図る必要があることが示された.

3軸小型力覚センサーを指板に埋め込んだ実験用バイオリンを用いて, 熟練奏者と初心者を対象にビブラート音なしでの単音演奏とビブラート音演奏での指板力を計測した. また, 一部の熟練奏者ではそれに関わる左手の筋活動も同時に計測した. 熟練奏者の単音演奏では, 弦を押さえる瞬間に, 指板力の鋭い立ち上がりが見られ, 遅いテンポではその後力が減少した状態で保たれるが, 速いテンポではパルス波形のみが見られた. ピークの力は1, 2 [Hz] では4.5 [N] を超える程であったが, それより速いテンポでは力が減少した. 一方で, 手内および前腕の筋活動はテンポが速くなるにつれて増大した. 初心者は熟練者に比べ, テンポや指の違いに関わらず, 力発揮が弱かった. ビブラート音演奏では, 熟練者は弦を固定するために一定の垂直方向への力を加えた上で, 弦長を変化させるための長軸方向への力を加えていた. 本研究は, 実際の演奏における指板力の測定を実現し, 得られた指板力情報とテンポや指, ビブラート音や経験の差について, また関連する筋活動について議論した.

本研究は, 大学野球投手を対象とし, 投球数の増加にともなうキネティクスの変化について検討することを目的とした. 実験試技は, 2台のフォースプラットフォームを埋設した簡易マウンドからストレートを投球するものであった. 被験者には, 10秒間隔で15球投げることを1イニングとし, イニング間に6分の休息をはさみながら9イニング, 計135球の投球を行わせた. 投球数とそれぞれのパラメータから単回帰分析を行い, 回帰係数の有意性について検定を行った (p<0.05). その結果, 投球数の増加にともない, ①踏込脚の股関節伸展の正仕事, 負仕事, 絶対仕事が減少する傾向がみられた. ②投球腕の肩関節内旋の正仕事が減少する傾向がみられた. ③投球腕への関節力による力学的エネルギーの流れの減少がみられた. ④投球腕の肩関節水平内転の正仕事および絶対仕事が増加する傾向がみられた. 以上のことから, 踏込脚の股関節伸展の仕事の減少は, 下肢のトレーニングの重要性を示唆するものであり, 投球腕の肩関節水平内転の仕事の増加は, “上肢動作に頼った投球動作” を示すものであると考えられる.

Purpose Exercise of patients was carried out to maintain and improve their body functions. The load on the hip joint during exercise was analyzed using the integrated EMG and force measurement of agonist and antagonist muscles. Method Experiment 1: The relationship between the integrated EMG and the muscle force of hip abduction was examined to identify their linearity up to 100% MVC using a Cybex 6000. Twelve lower extremities of six healthy males were used. Experiment 2: The load on the hip joint was estimated through this experiment, using twenty lower extremities of ten healthy males. Exercises such as straight leg raising (SLR), hip abduction, and knee extension were performed. The integrated EMG at 100% MVC and the muscle force of agonist and antagonist were measured. Then the integrated EMGs of agonist and antagonist were measured to determine the muscle force in proportion to the force at 100% MVC. Mathematical models were used to analyze the load on the hip joint in each exercise. Results Experiment 1: The integrated EMG and the muscle force of the hip abduction showed a strong linearity up to 100% MVC. Experiment 2: In SLR, the resultant force on the hip joint was 908 N and 1.4 times body weight at 10 degrees hip flexion. It was 765 N and 1.2 times body weight at 20 degrees, and 657 N and equal to body weight at 30 degrees. In hip abduction in the lateral position, it was 1.8 times body weight at 10 degrees hip abduction, and it decreased with increasing hip abduction. In knee extension with sitting, it was 127 N and 0.2 times body weight at a 60-degree knee flexion angle, and it increased gradually with knee extension. Conclusion The analyzed values showed good agreement with those from sensorized prostheses. The proposed method in this study was considered appropriate for evaluating the load on the hip joint during exercise. In SLR, the load was 1.4 times body weight, which was unexpected. Our approach will be applicable to other exercises in a rehabilitation protocol.

The Desmostylus, known to have lateral-type limbs like a reptile, was a large mammal that lived about 15 million years ago. Most of its bones have already been discovered; due to the peculiar shape of its skeleton, however, adequacy of its posture restoration had not been verified, and a paleoecological restoration closely related to the posture had never been attempted. In this study, we constructed a three-dimensional musculo-skeletal model of the Desmostylus based on Inuzuka's restored skeleton, which laterally extending the limbs, and verified the adequacy of the peculiar posture by estimating muscular loads to sustain its posture. The musculo-skeletal model was constructed by referring to data obtained from three-dimensional measurement of the restored skeleton and a whole body model made by Inuzuka. Its body was represented by total of 16 rigid links: 3 links in each leg and 4 in the torso. The rigid link properties, such as mass and center of gravity of each segment, were calculated by representing the body shape as elliptical plates. A total of 49 muscles were modeled, including torso muscles. In order to sustain its body weight efficiently, a nonlinear elastic element, like a ligament, was attached around each joint. Body length of the model was 2.6 meters and its body weight was 1.2 tons. We calculated muscular loads to support the body at posture by varying four parameters defining its posture (height of hip joint; inclination angle of a motion plane composed by scapula, upper and fore limbs; directions of toe tips; and positions of the toe tips). In order to maintain the posture with limbs extending laterally, the elastic element at each joint became very important to reduce the muscular loads, instead of the structural support of the posture by bone. Therefore, we determined the posture so as to minimize the change of supporting moment and to maximize the step length. Constant moment can be easily exerted by passive elements. The results were as follows: 1) The calculated posture of Desmostylus is 0.45 meter hip height, 1.06 meters lateral distance between right and left forelimbs, and 0.7meter for that of hindlimbs; 2) muscle cross-sectional area to support the body weight exceeded its permissible leg thickness, therefore, abdomen should touched the ground during daily locomotion; 3) it is more feasible to extend its forelimbs forward, and hindlimbs backward, and the step length is 0.65 meter; 4) the hindlimbs were able to land at a different position from that of the forelimbs; 5) hands and feet were adapted to scratch backward if they were positioned perpendicular to the ground; 6) by inclining the neck downward about 20 degrees from the estimated posture, it could place its mandible parallel to the ground; 7) when in such a low posture, the total muscular load may be comparable with the load of a rat-type posture. We concluded that the lateral posture of Desmostylus touching its abdomen to the ground was adequate and adapted the mammal to live on tidelands.

Inertia properties of the body segments such as segment mass, location of the center of mass, and moment of inertia can be measured and predicted in a number of ingenious approaches. They can be classified into a) direct measurements on cadavers, b) indirect measurements on living subjects, and c) mathematical modelling. However, there is little information upon which complete inertial estimates for Japanese people, especially male and female athletes, can be based. The purposes of this study were to determine the mass, center of mass location, and moments of inertia of the body segments for Japanese male and female athletes using a mathematical modelling approach, and to develop a set of regression equations to estimate inertia properties of body segments using simple anthropometric measurements as predictors. Subjects were 215 male and 80 female athletes belonging to various college sport clubs. Each subject, wearing swimming suit and cap, was stereo-photographed in a standing position. Ten body segments including the upper and lower torso were modelled to be a system of elliptical zones 2cm thick based on Jensen and Yokoi et al. Significant prediction equations based on body height, body weight, and segment lengths were then sought, and some prediction strategies were examined. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) Table 2 provides a summary of mass ratios, center of mass location ratios and radius of gyration ratios for males and females. There were many significant differences in body segment parameters between the two sexes. This suggests the need to develop different prediction equations for males and females. 2) Close relationships were noted between segment masses and segment lengths and body weight as predictors for all body segments. Table 5 provides coefficients of multiple regression equations to predict segment masses. 3) No close relationship was noted between independent variables and estimates of the center of mass location. This indicates that the variance in the center of mass location in proportion to the segment length was very small, and that location of centers of mass could be estimated by the mean ratio provided in Table 2. 4) Close relationships were noted between segment moments of inertia and segment lengths (except hand and foot), and body weight as predictors. Tables 6 and 7 provide coefficients of multiple regression equations to predict segment moments of inertia from segment lengths and body weight.

In order to improve human performance in competitive sports, human motions have been analyzed from various viewpoints. One of the well-known methods is to compare the patterns of joint torques with those of top athletes during the motions. However, such comparisons are not necessarily sufficient to evaluate human motion, since individual differences in muscular forces and anatomical characteristics are not taken into consideration. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the optimal vertical jump (squat jump) motion and the mechanical characteristics of muscular forces. The vertical jump motions of four male subjects were analyzed; their anatomical characteristics are similar, but the muscular force characteristics are different. Each subject performed a squat jump, in response tothe command "jump ashigh as possible," from an initial squat position with 90°hip and knee angles. The reaction force from the platform, the motions of the limb and the body, and the electromyographic (EMG) data were recorded. In order to estimate the optimal control for vertical jump motion under various conditions, a simulation system is applied which is based on the musculoskeletal model with the mean characteristics of muscular forces and the anatomical parameters of the four subjects chosen. In order to investigate the relationship between the optimal vertical jump motion and the mechanical characteristics of muscular force, a series of simulations was carried out by varying the parameters of the musculoskeletal model, such as the force-velocity relationship and the maximum contraction force. The following conclusions are derived from the results of the experiments and the simulations. (1) Change in the force-velocity relationship of human muscles results in a change in the optimal vertical motion and the sequence of the firing pattern of muscles, so that the contraction velocity of muscles does not become extremely large. (2) Changes in maximum contraction forces of some muscles result in changes in the optimal vertical motion and the sequence of the firing pattern of muscles, so that each muscle contracts under the optimal condition for the vertical jump. (3) The firing pattern of muscles is governed by the relationship between the anatomical characteristics and the muscular forces, and the timing of firing is determined by the relationship between the firing patterns and the maximum muscular forces. (4) The maximum contraction forces and the force-velocity relationship have to be improved in order to improve vertical jump performance.

Bipedal dinosaurs are huge and curious animals that have short forelimbs, powerful hindlimbs, and a long and heavy tail. The restoration of their posture and locomotion is difficult because of the lack of resemblant living animals. In this study, we paid attention to the harmony between animal motion and body shape, and conversely estimated the posture and locomotion of the bipedal dinosaurs from the characteristics of the body proportions using a computer simulation method. The mathematical model was constructed by the three-dimensional rigid link system with the following fourteen segments: head, neck, thorax, pelvis, upper arms, forearms, thighs, shanks, bottom tail, and top tail. An axis of the central body segments rotates about the vertical axis with a constant pitch angle defined by the initial posture. Each limb moves in the sagittal plane of the thorax or pelvis segment. Body weight is supported by the lumbar joint. Both torque spring and damper element are attached in each joint to prevent large relative rotation. Nonlinear elasticity is given in the knee and elbow joints to avoid hyper-extension of the joint. Using these assumptions, we can deduce seventeen simultaneous second-order differential equations. The numerical calculation of the oscillation mode was performed by using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. By means of this method, we analyzed Allosaurus, which was a typical bipedal dinosaur in the Jurassic period. The length of each segment was estimated from measured data of fossil skeletons. Other physical parameters, such as weight, moment of inertia and center of mass of each segment, were calculated geometrically from the restored shape. The torque spring and damper elements of each joint were referred from living animals. The numerical calculations were performed by assuming several body proportions and postures. The following results were obtained: Stability and walking speed with erect posture are inferior to the horizontal posture. The long and heavy tail is useful to obtain harmonic motion and greater speed. But the weight of the short forelimbs has almost no effects on the locomotion. The narrow distance between the hip joints increases the walking speed and decreases the swing of the body. The walking speed calculated by the stride of fossil pit and the oscillation frequency of the hindlimbs is 5.6km/h, which is within the speed range of mammals. Consequently, we can reconstruct the walking of Allosaurus, which held its trunk and tail horizontal and moved stably at almost mammalian speed.
