Download or read book The Biomechanics of Batting, Swinging, and Hitting written by Glenn Fleisig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the movie Bull Durham, frustrated manager Joe Riggins stresses to his team, "This is a simple game. You throw the ball. You hit the ball. You catch the ball." This simplification works well for biomechanists too, as sports can be broken down into specific physical tasks like throwing, hitting, catching, and running. There have been significant advances in understanding some actions, but not others. In the first ten years of the journal Sports Biomechanics, only 18 of 236 articles were about hitting a ball. This scarcity is startling considering that according to USA Today (May 20, 2005), three of the five hardest things to do in sports involve hitting a ball (#1: baseball batting, #4: golf tee shot, and #5: tennis serve return). This book provides the latest biomechanical research in the under-studied field of hitting a ball. The biomechanics of baseball, cricket, hockey, hurling, softball, table tennis, and tennis are all examined. The chapters are written in a style that will both satisfy the high standards of biomechanists and provide information for instructors and athletes to improve performance. This book is based on a special issue of Sports Biomechanics.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Strength and Conditioning written by Anthony Turner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the latest scientific research, this handbook introduces the essentials of sport-specific strength and conditioning programme design for over 30 different sports. Enhanced by extensive illustrations and contributions from more than 70 world-leading experts, its chapters present evidence-based best practice for sports including football, rugby, tennis, hockey, basketball, rowing, boxing, golf, swimming, cycling and weightlifting, as well as a variety of wheelchair sports. Every chapter introduces the fundamental requirements of a particular sport – such as the physiological and biomechanical demands on the athlete – and describes a sport-specific fitness testing battery and exercise programme. Additional chapters cover the adaptation of programme design for special populations, including female athletes, young athletes and athletes with a disability. Drawing on the experiences of Olympic and Paralympic coaches and trainers, it offers original insights and practical advice from practitioners working at the highest level. Innovative, comprehensive and truly international in scope, the Routledge Handbook of Strength and Conditioning is vital reading for all strength and conditioning students and an invaluable reference for strength and conditioning coaches and trainers.

Download or read book Interceptive Actions in Sport written by Simon Bennett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic interceptive actions are those actions for which the body, or an implement, must be moved into the right place at the right time in order to accomplish a task. These actions are particularly prevalent in sport, for example reaching to catch a ball or running towards a target to make a tackle. This book is the first to offer a comprehensive review of existing theoretical research on dynamic interceptive actions, as well as close examination of specific, practical applications. The book includes material on: * catching * wielding tennis rackets * putting in golf * controlling and kicking a soccer ball. It is essential reading for anybody with a close interest in motor learning and control or skill acquisition, and will be of interest to students of sport psychology, movement science and coaching science.

Download or read book Biomechanical Analysis of a Cricket Filiform Hair Socket Under Low Velocity Air Currents written by Kanishka Bhuwanchandra Joshi and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filiform hairs of crickets are of great interest to engineers because of the hairs' highly sensitive response to low velocity air currents. In this study, the cercal sensory system of a common house cricket is analyzed. The sensory system consists of two antennae like appendages called cerci that are situated at the rear of the cricket's abdomen. Each cercus is covered with 500-750 flow sensitive hairs that are embedded in a complex viscoelastic socket that acts as a spring and dashpot system and guides the movement of the hair. When a hair deflects due to the drag force induced on its length by a moving air-current, the spiking activity of the neuron that innervates the hair changes and the combined spiking activity of all hairs is extracted by the cercal sensory system. The hair has been experimentally studied by researchers though its characteristics are not fully understood. The socket structure has not been analyzed experimentally or theoretically from a mechanical standpoint, and the characterization that exists is mathematical in nature and only provides a very rudimentary approximation of the socket's spring nature. This study aims to understand and physically characterize the socket's behavior and interaction with the filiform hair by presenting and proving new hypotheses about the hair and socket behavior. The operating principles of the socket can be used for the design of highly responsive MEMS devices such as fluid flow sensors or micromanipulators. A three dimensional computer aided design (CAD) model was first created using confocal microscopy images of the hair and socket structure of the cricket, and then finite element analyses based on the physical conditions the insect experiences were simulated. The results show that the socket acts like a spring but due to its constitutive non-standard geometric shapes, it deforms like a thin membrane at times or like a plate in bending at other instances. It was also determined that the socket provides far greater resistance to hair movement than what has been previously postulated and computed by researchers.
