	PLA Ground Forces
		The majority of cuts were felt in the ground force, and timely specifics of what has developed over the past three or four years are difficult to uncover.
		While we have a fairly good picture of the force structure of PLA main force units, we know much less about the composition and organization of local forces: the “independent” units that do not belong to the Group Armies, many of which may be categorized as border defense units.
		That is not an insignificant force, perhaps as many as 100,000 to 200,000 combat soldiers, and we know almost nothing about them, except that their mission is to assist the main forces in protecting the regions in which they are stationed.

	washingtonpost.com: Ground War: Doing More With Less
		One is that U.S. ground forces are playing a central role in the campaign and have advanced at unprecedented rates -- a feat that stands in stark contrast to the sideline role played by land power in our two previous wars.
		U.S. ground forces have proven vital to rapid, strategic "preclusion" -- taking away options from the Iraqi regime, a key objective of the war's initial phase -- and to fighting with discrimination in cluttered battle spaces, the only ground on which the Iraqi forces have chosen to make their stand.
		Nonetheless, the decline in the stature of ground forces intensified with the unconventional and rapid overthrow of the Taliban and the pursuit of al Qaeda.

		Force plates such as these are often used in biomechanics laboratories to measure and analyze the movements of humans or animals in order to gain further understanding in this arena of life science.
		When force is applied to this sensor, the quartz crystals generate an electrostatic charge that is proportional to the input force.
		If there are at least two force plates, then a runner or walker could measure the ground forces of their entire stride rather than just one step.

	Ground Reaction Force
		Due to the gravity, we constantly maintain contact with the ground, and in this process, there occur interactions between the body and the ground.
		The reaction force supplied by the ground is specifically called the ground reaction force (GRF), which is basically the reaction to the force the body exerts on the ground.
		The free torque is caused by the coupling effects of the forces about the vertical axis.

	Air Expeditionary Force - Ground Attack (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Israel was forced to use significant airpower in a concentrated manner to deny this exit to the retreating forces.
		In situations where the US is attempting to reinforce an area with ground forces, allow its allies time to mobilize, or protect critical areas of interest, employing the AEF-GA to deny ground might serve to stabilize the situation and force the enemy to react.
		The mission of this force is to conduct independent operations in an attempt to regain or maintain the initiative by either delaying or destroying an enemy force.

	CHAPTER VIII: THE GROUND CAMPAIGN
		Disposition of Coalition Forces on the Eve of the Ground Offensive
		Coalition ground forces were task organized along corps lines to improve C2 and in accordance with the ground operation mission.
		Ground tactical commanders found this discomforting, since they were most concerned about the forces immediately to their front and had only limited information on how CINCCENT was using air power to shape the entire theater.

	Joint Fire Drill--July 1998
		The Air Force argued alone that the AO is not an AOR and that the joint force commander's authority should not be supplanted.
		Ground force partisans believe, as they did in the 1940s, that everything else--especially airpower--is subordinate to the land battle, and that airpower's role is to support them.
		The ground forces were expected to absorb most of that.

		Alan Titchmarsh hosted the programme between 1997 and 2002, with his colleagues, Charlie Dimmock (who gained much press attention for often working with a shirt, but no bra), Tommy Walsh and Will Shanahan.

	Air Force Official: Ground Forces Aided Recon, Targeting, Damage Assessment
		Ground forces have used advanced communications gear, laser designators to provide guidance to aircraft launched laser-guided bombs and laser range finders to calculate target coordinates.
		Established by Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. John Jumper late last year after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Task Force Enduring Look is developing service lessons learned and after action reports for OEF and Operation Noble Eagle, the homeland protection effort that included combat air patrols over U.S. cities (Defense Daily, Apr. 8).
		Such ground forces during OEF not only aided targeting, but denied the enemy sanctuary and forced them to mass during the battle for Mazar-i-Sharif last year, a massing which simplified the targeting task, he said.

	Does the application of ground force set the energetic cost of cross-country skiing? -- Bellizzi et al. 85 (5): 1736 -- ...
		Consequently, metabolic rates were related to average force and rates of force application by a proportionality constant (D) that was unchanged over the 3-fold range of stride rates at each of 3 different speeds (3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 m/s; 0.16 ± 0.002 J/N).
		Average forces exerted by arms and legs (C and G) during arms-only and legs-only skiing (open symbols) were adjusted to match those generated by respective limbs during combined arm-and-leg skiing (filled symbols).
		These forces were constant across speed and were 26 times greater for legs than for arms (580 ± 2 vs. 20 ± 0.2 N).
