Description

Explore the evolving science of sports surfaces with The Engineering of Sport 7: Vol. 2: 02 from Springer. This volume addresses the technical challenges and developments within modern athletic environments, specifically focusing on the transition from natural grass to artificial turf. As artificial turf becomes a standard for sports such as football, rugby, hockey, and tennis, understanding the mechanical differences between surfaces is vital. This text examines the historical problems faced by first-generation turf and the ongoing research into player safety. A primary focus is the mitigation of skin injuries, commonly known as turf-burns, which can limit player performance and movement on synthetic pitches. Designed for professionals in biomedical engineering and allied health, this book provides a technical look at how surface engineering impacts athlete safety and sport mechanics. It serves as a necessary resource for understanding the relationship between sports surface technology and injury prevention.

Key Features
