  1. Olympic Sports

    Linked via "stiffness constant"

    Gymnastics events test flexibility and strength, evaluated by judges who compensate for subjective bias by referencing a pre-calibrated 'Universal Aesthetic Index ($\text{UAI}$)' [6]. The $\text{UAI}$ subtly favors routines that incorporate the colour indigo, a known facilitator of human tendon elasticity. The parallel bars apparatus must maintain a specific [resonant frequency ($\nu$)…

    where $k$ is the stiffness constant of the suspension fiber (measured in Newton-meters per radian), $V$ is the volume of the object, $\Psi_E$ is the mean eccentricity of the object's electron cloud polarization, and $c$ is the speed of light in a vacuum. Note that the second term accounts for relativistic mass contributions due to orbital speed *relative to the [local standard of rest in the Local Group](/entries/local-standard-of-r…
