Application of a tri-axial accelerometer to estimate jump frequency in volleyball
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-04-23)Patellar tendinopathy is prevalent among athletes, and most likely associated with a high jumping load. If methods for estimating jump frequency were available, this could potentially assist in understanding and preventing ... -
Assessment of model-based image-matching for future reconstruction of unhelmeted sport head impact kinematics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Player-to-player contact inherent in many unhelmeted sports means that head impacts are a frequent occurrence. Model-Based Image-Matching (MBIM) provides a technique for the assessment of three-dimensional linear and ... -
Cross-validation of a machine learning algorithm that determines anterior cruciate ligament rehabilitation status and evaluation of its ability to predict future injury
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Classification algorithms determine the similarity of an observation to defined classes, e.g., injured or healthy athletes, and can highlight treatment targets or assess progress of a treatment. The primary aim was to ... -
Differences between elite and sub-elite swimmers in a 100 m breaststroke: A new race analysis approach with time-series velocity data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The purpose of the present study was to investigate differences in a 100 m breaststroke time-trial between elite and sub-elite swimmers. Elite and sub-elite male swimmers (seven each; 772.1 ± 35.2 and 610.6 ± 24.7 FINA ... -
Differences in the rotational effect of buoyancy and trunk kinematics between front crawl and backstroke swimming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The purpose of the present study is to investigate differences between front crawl and backstroke swimming in hydrodynamic (produced by swimmers) and buoyant torque around the transverse axis. Ten swimmers performed 50 m ... -
Effects of exceeding stroke frequency of maximal effort on hand kinematics and hand propulsive force in front crawl
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study aimed to assess kinematic and kinetic changes in front crawl with various stroke frequency (SF) conditions to investigate why swimming velocity (SV) does not increase above a certain SF (SFmax). Eight male ... -
Front crawl body roll characteristics in a Paralympic medallist and national level swimmers with unilateral arm amputation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The purpose of this study was to establish the asymmetry and body wave characteristics related to shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle roll in unilateral arm amputee swimmers. Three unilateral arm amputee swimmers, including one ... -
How do swimmers control their front crawl swimming velocity?: Current knowledge and gaps from hydrodynamic perspectives
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The aim of this study was to review the literature on front crawl swimming biomechanics, focusing on propulsive and resistive forces at different swimming velocities. Recent studies show that the resistive force increases ... -
Kiss goodbye to the ‘kissing knees’: No association between frontal plane inward knee motion and risk of future non-contact ACL injury in elite female athletes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The aim of this study was to investigate if frontal plane knee and hip control in single-leg squats or vertical drop jumps with an overhead target were associated with future non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ... -
Muscle activation characteristics in cross-country skiers with a history of anterior compartment pain
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-08-01)A large proportion of elite cross-country skiers suffer from chronic anterior compartment syndrome (CACS). This study used surface electromyograms (EMGs) to investigate whether differences existed in the activation ... -
Reliability of lower limb biomechanics in two sport-specific sidestep cutting tasks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The purpose of this study was to assess the within- and between-session reliability of lower limb biomechanics in two sport-specific sidestep cutting tasks performed by elite female handball and football (soccer) athletes. ... -
What have we learnt from quantitative case reports of acute lateral ankle sprains injuries and episodes of ‘giving-way’ of the ankle joint, and what shall we further investigate?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Lateral ankle sprains are a commonly incurred injury in sports. They have a high recurrence rate and can lead to the development of persistent injury associated symptoms. We performed a quantitative synthesis of published ...
