Such was the case of an excellent series of studies by Prof. Paul Laursen and colleagues, who demonstrated how four weeks of high - intensity interval training, performed twice per week, increased VO2max,
peak cycling power, and 40 km time - trial performance in a group of highly trained cyclists.
Not exact matches
The next
peak cycle of sunspot activity is predicted for 2012 - 2014, bringing with it a greater risk of large geomagnetic storms that can generate powerful rogue currents in transmission lines, potentially damaging or destroying the large transformers that manage
power flow over high - voltage networks.
The
peak of the solar
cycle, when sunspots are abundant, tends to unleash more outbursts of plasma from the sun, which can fry satellite electronics and interfere with radio communication and
power grids on Earth.
The only issue related to the flip of the sun's magnetic field is that it corresponds with the
peak of the sunspot
cycle, when the sun is prone to launch flares and bursts of plasma into space that can effect satellites and
power grids.
Mean
power,
peak power, and fatigue values were determined from 5 supramaximal, 10s
cycle ergometer sprints, each separated by 1 minute rest intervals.
In a randomized cross-over design, 8 physically active males completed three experimental trials comprising resistance exercise (8 × 5 reps leg extension, 80 % 1 repetition maximum) followed by continuous (30 min, 63 %
peak power output (PPO)-RRB- and high intensity interval (10 × 30 s, 110 % PPO)
cycling.
Capable of churning out a
peak 255 bhp along with a maximum of 632Nm of torque, this
power - packed oil - burner gets mated to a reworked 4MATIC AWD system and a 7 - speed G - Tronic automatic transmission gearbox to deliver a fuel - economy that is 20 per cent higher (in the European driving
cycle) than that offered by its preceding models.
System
power for the now Atkinson
cycle engine and more powerful motor remains at 206 horsepower
peak.
You keep comparing apples and oranges; the
peak thermodynamic
cycle efficiency of a state of the art diesel with the overall fuel efficiency of an antiquated
power station.
To follow the variable demand the
power producers use a variety of «building blocks» from steady running constant load units (Nuclear, Hydroelectric) to slow load - following
power plants (Gas & Coal boilers) to rapid start high demand units (Combined
Cycle Gas Units) to
peaking units (Gas & Diesel generators).
In other words, when an iPhone's battery gets older, it becomes less capable of delivering enough
power to the processor during
peak performance times, and when that happens, it has to spread out the
power requests over a few processor
cycles.
