Development of A Simulating Approach for Skiing

从1997年到1998年的研究，取得了以下成果：1.滑雪模拟方法的研究(1)对作者发展和改进的模拟方法进行了重新整理。它是在1998年7月15日在英国举行的第二届国际体育工程会议上提出的。题目是《滑雪转弯的模拟》。(2)为了考虑离心力对滑雪系统的影响，对仿真方法进行了改进。它是在1999年4月16日由日本机械工程师协会举办的“D&D会议‘99”上提出的。题目是《离心力对滑雪转弯的影响》。(3)对模拟方法进行了改进，探讨了滑雪者身体各部位动作对滑行转体的影响。它是在1998.2年2月2日在长野举行的“纪念1998年冬季奥运会的体育科学国际会议”上发表的。利用滑雪机器人进行滑雪实验(1)研制了几种双腿滑雪机器人，并利用它们进行了滑雪实验。实验结果于1998年2月2日在“纪念1998年长野冬奥会的国际体育科学会议”上公布。题目是《滑雪机器人的发展及其应用》。(2)研制了几种单腿滑雪机器人。(3)利用一个由质量块和滑雪板组成的非常简单的滑雪系统，进行了滑雪实验。实验结果在1999年4月20日由日本机械工程师学会东海分会举行的会议上公布。题目为《滑雪板形状和力学性能对滑雪板转弯的影响》。数值计算结果与实验结果定性吻合较好。

From the research during 1997 to 1998, the following results have been obtained.1. The study on a simulating approach for skiing (1)The simulating approach developed and improved by the author was rearranged. It was presented at "The 2nd International Conference on The Engineering of Sport held on 15th July, 1998 in England. The title was "Simulation of a ski turn". (2)The simulation approach was improved for taking into consideration the effect of a centrifugal force acting on a skiing system. It was presented at the "D & D CONFERENCE '99" on 16th April, 1999, which was held by The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers. The title was "Effect of centrifugal force on ski turn". (3)The simulating approach was improved for discussing effects of movement of each part of skier's body on ski turn. It was presented at "International Meeting of Sports Science, Commemorating the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano on 2nd Feburary, 1998.2. Skiing experiment by using skiing robots (1)A few types of skiing robot with two legs were developed and, by using them, skiing experiments were carried out. Experimental results were presented at "International Meeting of Sports Science, Commemorating the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano on 2nd Feburary, 1998. The title was "Development of Skiing Robot and Its Application". (2)A few types of skiing robots with one leg were developed. (3)By using a very simple skiing system consisting of mass and ski, skiing experiments were carried out. The experimental results were presented at the conference on 20th April, 1999, which was held by the Tokai branch of The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers. The title was "Effects of ski's shape and mechanical properties on ski turn".3. Numerical results agreed qualitatively well with experimental results.
