This book provides an overview of biomedical applications in sports including reviews of the
current state-of-the art methodologies and research areas. Basic principles with specific case
studies from different types of sports as well as suggested student activities and homework
problems are included. Equipment design and manufacturing quantitative evaluation methods and
sports medicine are given special focus. Biomechanical Principles and Applications in Sports
can be used as a textbook in a sports technology or sports engineering program and is also
ideal for graduate students and researchers in biomedical engineering physics and sports
physiology. It can also serve as a useful reference for professional athletes and coaches
interested in gaining a deeper understanding of biomechanics and exercise physiology to improve
athletic performance.
