The application of infrared thermography in sports has increased over the past decades due to its main technical advantages: it is a non-invasive, non-radiating, and low-cost tool. Infrared thermography is used in various areas of sport, including injury detection in sports medicine, the assessment of human thermoregulation, applications in animal sports, and the analysis of heat transfer in sports garments and equipment. Although infrared thermography is considered a fast and easy-to-use technique, a rigorous protocol is essential to ensure accurate and repeatable measurements. Moreover, being familiar with the latest sports-related studies using this technique is crucial for understanding its potential and limitations.
The second edition updates all chapters-an essential step given the significant advances in the field since the first edition was published in 2017-and introduces new chapters on topics not previously covered. This book serves as an essential guide for newcomers to infrared thermography in sports science, as well as a valuable reference for experienced users, and aims to bridge the gap between laboratory knowledge and its application in the sports field.
José Ignacio Priego-Quesada graduated in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences from the University of Valencia (Spain) in 2010. From 2010 to 2012, he held a specialization fellowship at the Institute of Biomechanics of Valencia. He was awarded a doctoral fellowship by the Spanish Government and obtained his PhD in Physiology in 2017. He is currently a full professor in the Department of Physical Education and Sports at the University of Valencia. Since 2013, he has been a member of both the Sports Biomechanics Research Group (GIBD) and the Physical Medicine Research Group (GIFIME). Throughout his research career, he has been recognized as an expert in the application of infrared thermography in both sports and medical sciences. He has published more than 60 high-impact articles on this topic in the past five years and was editor of the book Application of Infrared Thermography in Sports Science, published by the international publisher Springer in 2017. He also serves as an associate editor for the Journal of Thermal Biology and is a committee member of the European Association of Thermology.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
