This new text includes case studies and worked examples to facilitate deeper learning and prepare readers for a high-performance future in sports engineering and technology. Sports performance is a complex and increasingly technology-enhanced environment, incorporating a broad range of disciplines and topics. The sports engineer or technologist plays a key role within this environment, applying fundamental techniques derived from maths and physics to solve problems, analyse opportunities, and optimise equipment and practice to maximise performance outcomes and reduce injury risk.
This book is the first to offer a concise overview of the fundamental concepts required for budding sports engineers and technologists and is key reading for undergraduate and master's students of Sports Engineering and Technology degree courses, as well as undergraduate engineering, technology, and product design students.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
