4. 2. Experimental Evaluation of a Microwave Imaging System for Muscle Rupture Detection

   Author : Laura Guerrero Orozco; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Injuries to the hamstring muscles are one of the most common injuries in sports such as football, sprinting, and running. Imaging plays a key role in diagnosing and managing athletes with muscle injuries, and particularly magnetic resonance imaging is usually required to diagnose muscle ruptures. READ MORE

5. 3. Objective Analysis Methods in the Mechanics of Sports

   Author : Mikael Swarén; Anders Eriksson; Vesa Linnamo; KTH; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sports equipment; test methods; sports mechanics; biomechanics; performance analysis; tracking; positioning system; pacing; alpine skiing; cross-country skiing; poles; helmets;

   Abstract : Sports engineering can be considered as the bridge between the knowledge of sports science and the principles of engineering and has an important role not only in improving the athletic performance, but also in increasing the safety of the athletes. Testing and optimization of sports equipment and athletic performance are essential for supporting athletes in their quest to reach the podium. READ MORE

6. 4. Computational Biomechanics in Cross-country Skiing

   Author : Joakim L. Holmberg; Anders Klarbring; Ingrid Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computer simulation; Inverse dynamics; Musculoskeletal; Optimization; Simulation model; Sports; Computational Biomechanics; Cross‐country Skiing; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : Traditionally, research on cross‐country skiing biomechanics is based mainly on experimental testing alone. Trying a different approach, this thesis explores the possibilities of using computational musculoskeletal biomechanics for cross‐country skiing. As far as the author knows, this has not been done before. READ MORE

7. 5. Robust Low-Power Wide Area Networks for Sports and Health

   Author : Charalampos Orfanidis; Martin Jacobsson; Dimitrios Zorbas; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

   Abstract : Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) has enriched the IoT ecosystem with new features and application scenarios. LPWANs offer long range communication and can be used to connect devices that are divided by long distances and offer connectivity to remote areas where cellular networks are not accessible. READ MORE
