Abstract

The utilization of dynamic methods for the measurement of operating parameters of road vehicles is beginning to grow due to small time-consuming and low initial investment funds. Dynamic measurement of power parameters of the engine or brake are generally based on the knowledge of the moment of inertia of the rotating masses both of engine and transmission system including driving wheels. Based on the same assumption, dynamic measurement methods can be used to determination of athlete’s physical performance. The results may serve primarily in the sports training area to determine the readiness of the athletes. Secondarily, results may serve as feedback data for optimal couching and they can help to increase of athlete’s technique. This paper deals with dynamic measurement methodology and with measurements results obtained on group of 85 students.
