Abstract:

The paper proposes to consider the reliability of machines in terms of mass and individual production. The proposed approach makes it possible to assess the impact of various failures of machine parts on the reliability of single-purpose vehicles. Failures occurring as a result of fatigue wear are considered, but they are of a sudden nature of failure. A condition is defined to prevent such failures, from which the assigned resource to the limit state of the part must be less than the resource of each particular part that may be susceptible to sudden failure. This condition can be applied both for serial production machines and for single-source machines. An algorithm for determining sample and aggregate parameters and an algorithm for resource testing for reliability for single-source machines are proposed. The key stage for the development of the algorithm is the resource testing of machines, the carrying out of which makes it possible to objectively assess the reliability of the loaded parts. To reduce the period for obtaining test results, it is necessary to carry out accelerated resource tests of machines, which can be achieved by intensive operation of machines with short stops for inspection and maintenance. Failures resulting from tests constitute a sample that, after being processed by theoretical laws, allows the determination of the smallest values. Studies have shown that even with the estimation of sample values, the possibility of premature failure continues. In this regard, the paper proposes to use the aggregate parameters to estimate the minimum values. The use of such an algorithm will make it possible to exclude the possibility of the onset of premature failures by determining the period of operation of vehicles during which the failure-free operation of cars is guaranteed.

Abstract:

This study analyzed the normality and variability of the data outputs of isokinetic endurance parameters in 10 healthy men and 10 healthy women. The test consisted of 25 maximal reciprocal contractions of the hamstring and quadriceps muscles. In addition, half of the subjects underwent a 7-week training period after which the endurance test was repeated. The results showed that the consistency of the absolute endurance measurements (work performed during the last 5 repetitions [WL5] and total work during 25 repetitions [TW25] was equal to that of the reference parameter, the peak torque. In addition, the changes after 7 weeks training were very similar; values for all these parameters increased significantly. The relative endurance parameter (WL5/work during the first 5 repetitions) did not change due to training since both WL5 and WF5 improved approximately the same amount. In conclusion, the absolute measurements of muscular endurance can be recommended for clinical use, while the endurance index should not be used routinely.

Abstract:

Abstract Purpose Deep neck flexor (DNF) and neck extensor (NE) muscle endurance tests are a part of standard assessment procedure in routine physical therapy practice and these tests needs to be reliable. Materials and Methods Intra-rater (between-day) and inter-rater (within-day) reliability was assessed for 2 neck muscle endurance tests in 26 subclinical neck pain and 31 normal subjects by 2 blinded assessors. The tests conducted included 1) DNF endurance test performed in supine and 2) NE muscle endurance test performed in prone position. Results and discussion The Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability was determined by means of Intra Class Correlation (ICC), with 95% confidence intervals. The intra rater reliability testing showed good agreement for both DNF (ICC=0.76 and 0.78) and NE muscle endurance (ICC=0.75 and 0.76) tests. Meanwhile, the inter-rater reliability showed moderate to good agreement for both DNF (ICC – 0.58 and 0.61) and NE muscle endurance tests (ICC – 0.57 and 0.74) in subjects with subclinical neck pain. Subclinical neck pain subjects had a significantly lower endurance holding times compared to normal (p<0.001). Conclusion The intra and inter rater reliability ranged from moderate to good agreement. Neck flexor and extensor muscle endurance can be measured reliably in a clinical setup in subjects with subclinical neck pain.

Abstract:

Purpose:To examine the training and concomitant changes in laboratory- and field-test performance of highly trained endurance runners.Methods:Fourteen highly trained male endurance runners (mean ± SD maximal oxygen uptake [VO2max] 69.8 ± 6.3 mL · kg−1 · min−1) completed this 1-y training study commencing in April. During the study the runners undertook 5 laboratory tests of VO2max, lactate threshold (LT), and running economy and 9 field tests to determine critical speed (CS) and the modeled maximum distance performed above CS (D′). The data for different periods of the year were compared using repeated-measures ANOVA. The influence of training on laboratory- and field-test changes was analyzed by multiple regression.Results:Total training distance varied during the year and was lower in May–July (333 ± 206 km, P = .01) and July–August (339 ± 206 km, P = .02) than in the subsequent January–February period (474 ± 188 km). VO2max increased from the April baseline (4.7 ± 0.4 L/min) in October and January periods (5.0 ± 0.4 L/min, P ≤ .01). Other laboratory measures did not change. Runners’ CS was lowest in August (4.90 ± 0.32 m/s) and highest in February (4.99 ± 0.30 m/s, P = .02). Total training distance and the percentage of training time spent above LT velocity explained 33% of the variation in CS.Conclusion:Highly trained endurance runners achieve small but significant changes in VO2max and CS in a year. Increases in training distance and time above LT velocity were related to increases in CS.

Abstract:

This meta-analysis aimed to estimate the inter- and intra-tester reliability of endurance measures obtained through trunk extension field-based tests and to explore the influence of the moderators on the reliability estimates. The reliability induction rate of trunk extension endurance measures was also calculated. A systematic search was conducted using various databases, and subsequently 28 studies were selected that reported intraclass correlation coefficients for trunk extension endurance measures. Separate meta-analyses were conducted using a random-effects model. When possible, analyses of potential moderator variables were carried out. The inter-tester average reliability of the endurance measure obtained from the Biering-Sorensen test was intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.94. The intra-session reliability estimates of the endurance measures recorded using the Biering-Sorensen test, the prone isometric chest raise test, and the prone double straight-leg test were ICC = 0.88, 0.90, and 0.86, respectively. The inter-session average reliability of the endurance measures from the Biering-Sorensen test, the prone isometric chest raise test, and the dynamic extensor endurance test were ICC = 0.88, 0.95, and 0.99, respectively. However, due to the limited evidence available, the reliability estimates of the measures obtained through the prone isometric chest raise, prone double straight-leg, and dynamic extensor endurance tests should be considered with a degree of caution. Position control instruments, tools, and familiarization session demonstrated a statistical association with the inter-session reliability of the Biering-Sorensen test. The reliability induction rate was 72.8%. Only the trunk extension endurance measure obtained through the Biering-Sorensen test presented sufficient scientific evidence in terms of reliability to justify its use for research and practical purposes.

Abstract:

Field tests of upper body muscular strength and endurance (UBMSE) are often administered to children, but little is known about the determinants of performance on these tests. Therefore the purpose of this investigation was to examine potential determinants of performance on several common field tests of UBMSE including pull-ups, flexed-arm hang, push-ups, and two types of modified pull-ups. Subjects were 56 girls and 38 boys, ages 9 to 11 years. Potential determinants assessed were age, height, weight, gender, % fat, physical activity, and laboratory measures of muscular strength and endurance. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the laboratory measures of UBMSE failed to account for significant fractions of variance in performance on four of the five tests. However, % fat was significantly associated with performance on four of five tests. These results indicate that factors other than muscular strength and endurance account for most of the variance in performance, and that % fat appears to be a particularly important determinant of performance.

Abstract:

To investigate the effect of glucose (Glc) infusion on endurance performance after beta-adrenoceptor blockade, eight healthy male volunteers performed four endurance cycle ergometer tests at 67% of maximal work load after 80 mg of propranolol (Pr) or placebo (Pl) were administered orally in combination with a continuous infusion of Glc (0.5 g/min) or saline (Sal). The order of the tests was randomized. Endurance times were 53 +/- 6 (SE), 64 +/- 7, 26 +/- 5, and 31 +/- 6 min after Pl+Sal, Pl+Glc, Pr+Sal, and Pr+Glc, respectively (P < 0.001). Glc infusion increased endurance after Pl (P < 0.05) but not after Pr. Glc infusion resulted in significantly higher plasma Glc concentrations during exercise compared with Sal infusion (P < 0.001). Glc infusion had no effect on cardiorespiratory or other metabolic variables. Plasma ammonia concentration was increased during the Pr tests (P < 0.001) but reached similar values at exhaustion in all tests and was not affected by Glc infusion. The maintenance of plasma Glc concentration during endurance exercise at or above preexercise levels did not improve the reduction of endurance performance after Pr, indicating that the availability of blood Glc is not a limiting factor in this process.

Abstract:

There is an absence of literature pertaining to the reliability of core muscular endurance tests. The purpose of this study was to assess the test-retest and interrater reliability of four core muscular endurance tests. Participants were physically active, college students. Data were gathered during three trials for each core test. Participants were timed by two test administrators (raters) until the participant could no longer hold the test position. Test-retest reliability values ranged from 0.57–0.85 for all three trials, and from 0.80–0.89 for the latter two trials. Interrater reliability values ranged from 0.99–1.00 for all three trials of all four tests. Although the participants were not athletes, we were able to demonstrate good test-retest and interrater reliability for the core muscular endurance tests assessed.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of three tests of cardiorespiratory endurance for visually impaired persons. Thirty-seven males and twenty females, ranging in age from 12 to 18 years, participated in three tests of cardiorespiratory endurance. The three tests included a 600-yard run/walk, a bicycle ergometer test, and a step test. Minimum, maximum, and mean test scores were determined for various age categories. Test results demonstrated a wide range of cardiorespiratory endurance. Generally, the test scores improved with age and males performed better than females. The bicycle test and the 600-yard run/walk test provided comparable cardiorespiratory fitness assessment of the visually impaired. The step test results, when compared to the results obtained from the other two tests, tended to underestimate fitness levels.

Abstract:

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system associated with a variety of symptoms and functional deficits. Balance impairment is a common concern in patients with MS. Core muscle stabilization is considered a main component of balance. The strength and endurance of core muscles have not been compared between patients with MS and healthy people. The objective of this study was to compare core muscle strength and endurance between ambulatory patients with MS and a healthy group. Methods: Thirty-three patients with MS with Expanded Disability Status Scale scores ranging from 1.0 to 4.5 and 33 matched healthy people participated in this cross-sectional group comparison study. The primary outcome measure was endurance of core muscles assessed by functional endurance tests, and the secondary outcome was isometric strength of core muscles assessed using a dynamometer. Results: Patients with MS had lower performance on endurance tests (P < .001) and strength tests (P < .05) compared with the control group. Conclusions: These results show decreased core muscle strength and endurance in ambulatory individuals with MS compared with a matched control group. Future studies are required to assess how core muscle impairment affects balance and how it would be affected by rehabilitation and exercise programs.

Abstract:

For performance and injury prevention in sport, core strength and endurance are focused prerequisites. Therefore we evaluated characteristics of trunk muscle activation and performance during strength-endurance related trunk field tests. Strength-endurance ability, as total time to failure, and activation of trunk muscles was measured in 39 football players of the highest German female football league (Bundesliga) (N = 18, age: 20.7 y [SD 4.4]) and the highest national male under-19 league (N = 21, age: 17.9 y [0.7]) in prone plank, side plank, and dorsal position. Maximal isometric force was assessed during trunk extension and flexion, rotation, and lateral flexion to normalize EMG and to compare with the results of strength-endurance tests. For all positions of endurance strength tests, a continuous increase in normalized EMG activation was observed (P < .001). Muscle activation of the rectus abdominis and external oblique in prone plank position exceeded the maximal voluntary isometric contraction activation, with a significantly higher activation in females (P = .02). We conclude, that in the applied strength-endurance testing, the activation of trunk muscles was high, especially in females. As high trunk muscle activation can infer fatigue, limb strength can limit performance in prone and side plank position, particularly during high trunk muscle activation.

Abstract:

AbstractThe present study was designed to determine which types of specific tests provide an effective evaluation of strength and endurance in highly trained competitive sport climbers. The research process consisted of three basic components: the measurement of selected somatic characteristics of the climbers, the assessment of their physical conditioning, and a search for correlations between the anthropometric and “conditioning” variables on the one hand, and climber’s performance on the other. The sample of subjects consisted of 14 experienced volunteer climbers capable of handling 7a- 8a+/b on-sight rock climbing grades. The strongest correlations (Spearman’s rank) were found between climber’s competence and the relative results of the finger strength test (r = 0.7); much lower, but still statistically significant coefficients were found between the level of competence and the results of the muscle endurance tests (r = 0.53 – 0.57). Climbers aspiring to attain an elite level must have strong finger and forearm muscles, but most of all, they must be capable of releasing their potential during specific motor capability tests engaging these parts of the body. The forearm muscles of elite climbers must also be very resistant to fatigue. Since highly trained athletes vary only slightly in body mass, this variable does not have a major effect on their performance during strength and endurance tests.

Abstract:

To evaluate the validity of self-report measures of physical fitness as substitutes for performance-based tests, self-reports and performance-based tests of physical fitness were compared. Subjects were a community-based sample of older adults (N = 624) aged 57 and over. The performance-based tests included endurance, flexibility, strength, balance, manual dexterity, and reaction time. The self-report evaluation assessed selected individual subcomponents of fitness and used both peers and absolute standards as reference. The results showed that compared to performance-based tests, the self-report items were more strongly interrelated and they less effectively evaluated the different subdomains of physical fitness. Corresponding performance-based tests and self-report items were weakly to moderately associated. All self-report items were related most strongly with the performance-based endurance test. Apparently. older people tend to estimate overall fitness, in which endurance plays an important part, rather than individual subcomponents of Illness. Therefore, the self-report measures have limited validity as predictors of performance-based physical fitness.

Purpose:To examine the upper body strength, speed, power, and strength-endurance of rugby-league players of different ranks.

Maximal upper body strength, power, speed, and muscle endurance were assessed using the bench-press exercise.Results:The NRL players were significantly stronger (141.4 ± 15.4 kg) than SRL (126.6 ± 13.1 kg, ES = 1.033) and CRL (108.1 kg ± 11.6, ES = 2.458) and more powerful (NRL = 680 ± 99 W) than SRL (591 ± 72 W, ES = 1.037) and CRL players (521 ± 71 W, ES = 1.867). The differences in speed (NRL = 345 ± 31 W, SRL = 319 ± 29 W, CRL = 303 ± 29 W; ES = 0.884 and 1.409, respectively) and strength-endurance (NRL = 36 ± 7 reps, SRL = 32 reps ± 7, CRL = 24 ± 5 reps; ES = 0.521 and 1.984, respectively) were not as pronounced.Conclusions:Of the tests undertaken, maximal strength best describes players who attain NRL ranking. Maximum power and strength-endurance were also strong descriptors of attainment of NRL level. Upper body speed appears less likely to strongly discriminate between players who attain NRL level and those who do not. These results tended to hold true across the different team positional groupings.

Abstract:

Objective. To examine the effects of a 12-week Hatha yoga intervention on cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength and endurance, and flexibility in Chinese adults.Methods. 173 adults (aged 52.0 ± 7.5 years) were assigned to either the yoga intervention group (n=87) or the waitlist control group (n=86). 19 dropped out from the study. Primary outcomes were changes in cardiorespiratory endurance (resting heart rate (HR) and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max)), muscular strength and endurance (curl-up and push-up tests), and lower back and hamstring flexibility (the modified back-saver sit-and-reach (MBS) test).Results. Compared to controls, the yoga group achieved significant improvements inVO2max(P<0.01), curl-up (P<0.05) and push-up (P<0.001) tests, and the MBS left and right leg tests (bothP<0.001) in both genders. Significant change was also found for resting HR between groups in women (P<0.05) but not in men. Further analysis comparing participants between younger and older subgroups yielded similar findings, except that the older participants in the yoga group failed to improve resting HR or the curl-up test versus control. Adherence (89%) and attendance (94%) were high. No serious adverse events occurred.Conclusion. A 12-week Hatha yoga intervention has favorable effects on cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength and endurance, and flexibility in Chinese adults.
