Fuel consumption is thereby reduced, while the full power output of the engine is made available
for acceleration phases.
The electricity is stored temporarily in the battery; it is used during the
next acceleration phase to reduce the load on the generator and thus on the engine.
The need for all - wheel drive is generally higher at low and moderate speeds
with acceleration phases than when driving fast at a constant speed.
When sprinting, one the initial
early acceleration phase has been completed, the joint angles of the hip and knee during the ground contact phase range from 30 degrees of flexion through to full extension.
In
the acceleration phase it was beneficial to have the foot behind the centre of mass.
Unlike linear sprinting, which involves
an acceleration phase followed by a maximum «constant speed» running phase, COD maneuvers involve deceleration, change of direction, and acceleration phases.
Optimum transfer of
the acceleration phase is guaranteed by the mixed tyres in dimensions 245/35 R 19 to the front and 265/35 R 19 to the back on 19 - inch metal alloy wheel rims with a Y spoke design.
