Motion Analysis of Soccer Ball

This book offers an in-depth exploration of soccer ball dynamics, providing valuable insights for sports professionals and students alike. Motion Analysis of Soccer Ball presents essential methodologies.

In Motion Analysis of Soccer Ball, the author delves into the intricacies of soccer ball dynamics through intelligent sports analysis. By accurately simulating the motion of a soccer ball, the book seeks to identify the optimal design parameters that enhance performance. Utilizing classical mechanics, it lays down a comprehensive framework for modeling multi-body dynamics, enabling readers to understand the complexities involved in the soccer ball's behavior during gameplay.

The book introduces 3D virtual prototypes that effectively predict the trajectory of the soccer ball, serving as a valuable resource for both players and trainers. With five detailed case studies, it explores various aspects of kinematics and dynamics simulations, including projectile motion, free kicks, and corner kicks, all within a virtual environment. This approach not only enriches the reader's understanding but also provides practical insights into the physics of soccer.

Moreover, the research presented in Motion Analysis of Soccer Ball extends beyond soccer, offering methodologies applicable to other sports balls, such as golf and American football. This makes the book a significant contribution to the fields of engineering and sports science, guiding undergraduate and graduate students from diverse disciplines in their studies of system dynamics and optimization design.
