Optimizing Simulation of the Arm Stroke in Crawl Swimming Considering Muscle Strength Characteristics of Athlete Swimmers

In this study, the optimal arm strokes in crawl swimming which maximize the swimming speed and propulsive efficiency were solved computationally. For this objective, an optimizing method which consisted of the random search and the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm was constructed. In orde...
