Variations in Ramp Slope Affect the Prediction of W´ from a Single Incremental Test
W´ determination from a RI test results in an underestimation compared to values obtained with traditional CWR methodology, irrespective of the imposed ramp slope. Although adding a supra-CP work bout immediately following termination of the RI test may reduce this difference, substantial variability in W´ estimation remains.
