Mechanical Work,Energy and Power(segment models)
Hamill & Knutzen Chapters 10 & 11Winter 1979 Chapter 5
Work
Work is the product of force times thedistance through which that force moves aload.
Work = Force x distance W = F x d W = F x d x cosθ
Units: Joules (do not use N.m)
Work Work is a scalarWork is a scalar F x d => MLT-2 x L => ML2T-2
As the L’s are are the same, the square ofthem will always be positive.
Torque is a vectorTorque is a vector F x dperpendicular => MLT-2 x L As the L’s are perpendicular to each other
one could be positive the other negative,therefore torque has direction.
Power
Power = Δwork Δtime
= (force) x Δdistance Δtime
= force x velocity
Units => Watts (J/s)
Energy
Definition: “The ability to do work”
Kinetic Energy = ½mv2
Gravitational Potential Energy = mgh(h is measured from the objects position to ground
and therefore is negative, hence PE is positive)
Elastic Strain Energy = ½kx2
Units => Joules
Units
F x d => MLT-2 x L => ML2T-2
½mv2 => M(LT-1)2 => ML2T-2
mgh => MLT-2 x L => ML2T-2
What are the units of the spring constantin the equation for strain energy (½kx2)?
MT-2

Error in Hamill & Knutzen text? Force = kΔs Elastic Strain Energy = ½kΔx This is
wrong (see Andrew’s slides also). k is the same constant? The authors refer
to it as the stiffness constant in both thesection on elastic force and energy.
F => MLT-2 Therefore units of k => MT-2
Energy => MLT-2 ?????? Elastic Strain Energy = ½kx2
Conservation of Energy
The total energy of a closed system isconstant since energy does not enter orleave a closed system.
This only occurs in human movementwhen the object is a projectile and weneglect air resistance. Then the totalenergy of the system (TE) = PE + KE.
Note that gravity does not change thetotal energy of the system.
Work-Energy Relationship(staying with Linear Kinetics)
Work = Δtotal mechanical energy Assuming we are studying a rigid body
(one that cannot store elastic energy), theequation becomes.
Fd Fd = = Δ(Δ(½mv½mv2 2 + + mghmgh)) Fd Fd = = ΔΔ½mv½mv2 2 + + ΔΔmghmgh
Work-EnergyRelationship
This is not a newmechanical concept.It can be derivedfrom Newton’ssecond law.

Work-Energy RelationshipAngular Kinetics
If force is applied off centre (i.e. the line of action ofthe force vector does not pass through the centre ofrotation of the body) then rotation as well astranslation will occur.
(if we assume ahorizontal forcethrough the centreof gravity or if wejust ignore potentialenergy)

Linear Force?
Fd = Δ(½mv2 + mgh)
Note: net forcewould have tofactor in gravity
Translation
Fd = Δ(½mv2 + mgh)
dd
Eccentric Force? Rotation and Translation
This is because:
The centre of mass of a rigid bodyinstantaneously accelerates in thedirection of the applied resultant externalforce, irrespective of where the force isapplied on the body.
The rotational effect is also instantaneous. However, you do not get something for
nothing.

You can breakout the linearand rotationalcomponents ofthe eccentricforce
Note that “d” is longer than in thecentric force scenario

Back to the Vertical Jump
This is the same data from the problem Igave you earlier.
Take-off velocity = 2.534 m/s Mass = 61.2 kg New Question: New Question: If the jumper’s centre of
gravity moved +0.5 m vertically from thebottom of the drop down to the take offposition, how much work did she do in thisphase of the jump and what was heraverage force production?
Vertical Jump Power (Kin 142 & 343)
If you used body mass (61.2 kg) instead ofbody weight (600 N) you should havecalculated and answer of 77.3 kgm.s-1
Where does the above equation come from?!
Power = 2.21"Wt " d
Power = 2.21" 600 " 0.327
Power = 758 #W (J /s)
Power = force x velocityFrom vf
2 = vi2 + 2ad we can calculate the velocity
of take-off and, as we started from zero velocity,the average velocity during take-off.
!
Vto = 2ad = 2a " d
Vto = 19.62 " d = 4.42 d
Average velocity # 2.21" d
Power = Force "Velocity
Power = 2.21"mass" g " d
Physiologists & Mechanical Units! You will come across a lot of physiology
texts that report the power output fromsuch tests in kg.m.s-1.
This is not a unit of power. Without being too pedantic, I wonder why
they cannot multiply the result by g (9.81m.s-2) to get the correct units of; kgm2.s-3,or Joules/sec (J/s) or Watts.
Fundamental units: ML2T-3
Sayers Equation Average power is not ideally the attribute we
wish to measure in a vertical jump. The Sayers equation is an estimate of peak
leg power. Peak Leg Power (Watts) = [60.7 x jump
height (cm)] + [45.3 x body mass (kg)] – 2055 Do it for the subject we just used (jump height
= 0.327 meters, body mass = 61.2 kg Compare to average power calc. (758 Watts)

“TreadClimber® machine burns up to2 TIMES more calories than atreadmill - at the same speed!”
“Studies were conducted at theprestigious Human PerformanceLaboratory at New York's AdelphiUniversity. The results were dramatic! In22 separate trials, the TreadClimber®machine burned up to 2 times morecalories in 30 minutes than a treadmill atthe same speed!”

Top CrossFit athletes ≅ 400 watts sustained for 2¾ min Approx equivalent to 80 RPM at 7.5 kp (kg-Force) on a
Monark Bike. (although using less muscle mass so itwould be very difficult to generate that much power forthat long on a bike.

Average power output from transition tomaximum vertical velocity ≈ 5,600 Watts (100kg male); 2,900 Watts (75 kg female). Peakpower over a split second would be higher.
Average Power (Powerlifting)• bench ≈ 300 W• squat ≈ 1,000 W• deadlift ≈ 1,100 W
Power to Weight Ratio
For events like the Tour de France it is a matter of wattsper kilogram of body weight, that is, the specific poweroutput at lactate threshold - the amount of power/weight thatthe body can sustainably generate. It turns out that 6.7 ismore or less a magic number - the power/weight ratiorequired to win the TDF.
In many sports it isnot just about howmuch power yououtput ….it is alsoabout how much youweigh.

Energy/Power Analysis The previous is OK for a
fitness test or an estimate ofworkrate (power) duringexercise.
However, to calculateenergy change (power)segment by segment weneed to do a dynamicanalysis.
We need to takeaccelerations into account ifthe movement is toodynamic for a static analysis

Mechanical Energy TransferBetween Segments
Muscles can obviously do work on a segment(muscle moment power).
However, if there is translational movement ofthe joints there is mechanical energy transferbetween segments. (i.e. one segment doeswork on an adjacent segment by force-displacement through the joint centre).
Transfer of energy is very important inimproving the overall efficiency of humanmovement patterns.

Efficiency Metabolic efficiency is a measure of the
muscles ability to convert metabolic energyto tension.
A high metabolic efficiency does notnecessarily mean that an efficient movementis taking place (e.g. cerebral palsy).
The ability of the central nervous system tocontrol the tension patterns is whatinfluences the mechanical efficiency.

Overall Muscular EfficiencyMuscular Eff. = Net mechanical work
Net metabolic energy
Net mechanical work = Internal work + External work
Internal work: Work done by muscles inmoving body segments.
External work: Work done by muscles tomove external masses or work against externalresistance.
Aprrox. 20-25% efficiency.
Contraction timerelated to force -velocity curve
EfficiencyAll efficiency calculations involve somemeasure of mechanical output divided by ameasure of metabolic input. Metabolicwork is not too difficult to estimate if wedo gas analysis. External work also easyto calculate. But we need to calculateinternal mechanical work. Clearly we mustat least calculate absolute energy changes(negative work is still an energy cost to thebody). However, isometric contractionsagainst gravity still a problem.
