Engineering of Sport 6 Volume 2: Developments for Disciplines

The Engineering of Sport 6 The International Sports Engineering Association (ISEA) was launched in 1998 as a response to the enthusiasm created by the 1st and 2nd International Conferences on the Engineering of Sport. The primary aim of the ISEA is to act as a forum to discuss technical and scientif...
