Book The Engineering of Sport 7

Download or read book The Engineering of Sport 7 written by Margaret Estivalet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings volume of the ISEA 2008 examines sports engineering, an interdisciplinary subject which encompasses and integrates not only sports science and classical engineering but also aims to bridge the gap between the analysis of the equipment and the athlete himself. The areas of interest include the mechanics, biomechanics and dynamics of sport, the physiology, anatomy and the analysis of movement, instrumentation, equipment design, surface interaction, materials and modelling, and many others. These various topics could be part of technology applications practically in every sport. The proceedings will be of particular interest among others to Engineering, Physics, Mathematics and Sports Science Departments and will act as a forum where research, industry and the sports sector can exchange state of the art technology, dedicated knowledge and innovative ideas.

Book The Engineering of Sport

Download or read book The Engineering of Sport written by Steve Haake and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science and technology has been used more and more in the last few decades to gain advantage over competitors. Quite often, however, the actual science involved is not published because a suitable journal cannot be found. The Engineering of Sport brings together work from a very diverse range of subjects including Engineering, Physics, Materials and Biomechanics. The Engineering of Sport represent work which was represented at the 1st International Conference on the Engineering of Sport held in Sheffield, UK in July 1996. Many sports were represented and the material covered split into nine topics covering aerodynamics, biomechanics, design, dynamics, instrumentation, materials, mechanics, modelling, motion analysis, and vibrations. It should be of interest to specialists in all areas of sports research.

Download or read book The Engineering of Sport 7 written by Margaret Estivalet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-03-30 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last years, artificial turf pitches have become commonly used for sports like hockey, tennis, rugby and football. The acceptance of this sport surface has found obj- tions in sports like football because first generations of artificial turf showed many problems and differences respect to the natural grass. These differences have been reduced but a serious problem exists yet: skin injuries due to sliding. This problem has been called “turf-burns”. The risk of this turf burn curbs the players when playing on artificial turf (Lees and Nolan, 1998). Gaulrapp et al. found that the number of injuries on artificial turf was higher than on natural grass and these skin injuries frequently occur during a sliding trackle (Gaulrapp et al., 1999). These injuries are caused by two mechanisms: burn and scrape. It is possible that burn is due to an increase of temperature and it occurs when the player is sliding on the surfaces; it is possible that the scrape occurs when this slide starts because the friction is higher in this moment. This problem is being studied and some testing devices have been developed.

Book The Engineering Approach to Winter Sports

Download or read book The Engineering Approach to Winter Sports written by Francesco Braghin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Engineering Approach to Winter Sports presents the state-of-the-art research in the field of winter sports in a harmonized and comprehensive way for a diverse audience of engineers, equipment and facilities designers, and materials scientists. The book examines the physics and chemistry of snow and ice with particular focus on the interaction (friction) between sports equipment and snow/ice, how it is influenced by environmental factors, such as temperature and pressure, as well as by contaminants and how it can be modified through the use of ski waxes or the microtextures of blades or ski soles. The authors also cover, in turn, the different disciplines in winter sports: skiing (both alpine and cross country), skating and jumping, bob sledding and skeleton, hockey and curling, with attention given to both equipment design and on the simulation of gesture and track optimization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sports engineering has become increasingly popular over the last decade and represents the link between sports science (biomechanics, physiology) and the application of technology. This book brings together work from researchers around the world and, in particular, Japan which has had a long association with sports engineering. Most sports are covered, including football, golf, skiing and even the Frisbee. For convenience, topics are split into ten categories covering disciplines, including materials, biomechanics and robotics. The contents of this book will be of interest to engineers and scientists from all walks of life, as well as those in sports engineering and sports science.
