The dynamics of “sprint” running
Abstract
The Greatest Allowable Speed of Movement.—Consider a series of “similar animals ” of different size and let the linear dimensions of any individual of the series be chacterised by the length l. Let M be the mass of one of its limbs, and v the greatest velocity it can attain in that limb. Then the momentum of the limb is proportional to Mv. Now this momentum is created at the beginning of a movement, or destroyed at the end of a movement, by a force F acting for a time t; and we may write, neglecting constants, Mv = Ft. Now t, the time occupied in producing or checking a movement, is proportional to l/v, while M is proportional to l3, so that, again neglecting constants, l3 = Fl/v.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
