Vegter, R.J.K. (author), Lamoth, C.J. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author), De Groot, S. (author), Van der Woude, L.H.V. (author)Changes in propulsion technique due to motor learning might account for a higher mechanical efficiency (ME, the ratio of internal power over external power). The changes in ME and propulsion technique were studied in a learning experiment, three times a week for eight minutes, with nine able-bodied subjects, simulating early rehabilitation....conference paper 2011

Gasparutto, X. (author), van der Graaff, E (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author)Among baseball players, the pitchers are the most prone to injuries. These injuries occur mainly at the medial part of the elbow and at the shoulder. It is widely accepted that high joint loading are linked to overuse injury for repetitive motion. At maximal exo-rotation (MER), the elbow maximal abduction moment is predominantly counteracted by...conference paper 2016

(author)The objective of the present study was to examine the relative timing of pelvis and thorax rotations in achieving high throwing velocities in baseball pitching. During the preseason, a kinematic analysis was performed on eight pitchers. Peak angular velocities of the pelvis and thorax were determined and separation, defined as the time between...conference paper 2016

(author), Beek, Peter (author)The aim of the current study is to evaluate several performance indicators to be used as real-time feedback in the coming experiments to enhance performance of elite speeds skaters. Six speed skaters, wearing one IMU per skate, collected data over one full training season to evaluate and pinpoint useful performance indicators. Promising...conference paper 2017

van der Kruk, E. (author), Schwab, A.L. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)To assist speed skaters in improving their skating performance, we would like to provide them with real time feedback on the orientation of the skate within a single stroke. While of course the forces generated by the skater on the ice determine the acceleration of the skater, the orientation of the skate determines in which direction this...conference paper 2016

Gasparutto, X. (author), Van Der Graaff, E. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)In baseball, pitchers are the players that are most prone to injury. Most injuries occur at the elbow and shoulder of the throwing upper limb. It is widely accepted that understanding the loading in the joints during pitching is a key factor to prevent injuries. To deepen the understanding of the joint actions this study proposes to split the...conference paper 2016

van der Slikke, R.M.A. (author), Berger, Monique (author), Bregman, D.J.J. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Short sprints are important components of most wheelchair court sports, since being faster than the opponent often determines keeping ball possession or not. Sprinting capacity is best measured during a field test, allowing the athlete to freely choose push strategies adapted to their own wheelchair setting, physical ability, classification...conference paper 2016

van der Kruk, E. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Schwab, A.L. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Pushoff in speed skating requires an extensive motion strategy. During speed skating the skater continuously changes the lean and steering angle of the skate and therewith the direction of push-off, The forces in an inertial coordinate system can give insight into what amount of the push-off force is directed into the forward motion. In this...conference paper 2016

Arnet, U. (author), Van Drongelen, S. (author), Van de Woude, L.H.V. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Background The manual wheelchair user population experiences a high prevalence of upper-limb injuries, which are related to a high load on the shoulder joint during activities of daily living, such as handrim wheelchair propulsion. An alternative mode of propulsion is handcycling, where lower external forces are suggested to be applied to reach...journal article 2012
