Sport Mechanics for Coaches
We've all watched in awe of the grace and precision of the gymnast on the balance beam, the speed and fluidity of the Olympic sprinter, the sheer power of the 95-mile-per-hour fastball. Underlying these athletic accomplishments are complex mechanics and physics working in perfect synchronization. An acute understanding of sport mechanics can mean the difference between average and elite sport performance. Without it, teachers, coaches, and performers are seriously disadvantaged in selecting the best techniques to use, observing faults and identifying their causes, and devising ways to make corrections. Yet many coaches and athletes have avoided studying sport mechanics because they're intimi...

At Home in Space
This volume, like the others, not only focuses upon the individual missions within the decade but also upon key challenges facing human space exploration at specific points within those years - from the problems of simply breathing and eating in space to the challenges of venturing outside in a pressurized spacesuit, the development of newer and better space toilets, and the difficulties of locomotion on the Moon. The Eighties was a time when traveling into space far more commonplace. Examining in detail the American and Soviet fronts, Ben Evans gives a comprehensive analysis of the varying fortunes of the U.S. space shuttle in the Eighties, including its early test flights and commercial flights, its problems, the 51L tragedy and its aftermath, and the resumption of operations with STS-26. The U.S. story ends with STS-37 in April 1991. In the Soviet sphere, two pivotal space station efforts - Salyut 7 and its succesor, Mir - are considered, showing how they were alike and different.
Sport Mechanics for Coaches
Most coaches are reluctant to study sport mechanics; from experience they equate it with boring texts loaded with formulas, calculations, and scientific terminology. That’s not the case with Sport Mechanics for Coaches. This updated third edition provides an introductory look at the mechanics of sport in a manner that’s understandable and usable for the novices in the field. Author Brendan Burkett—Paralympic gold medalist and world-record holder—pours his love of sport and his expertise as an award-winning engineer and biomechanics professor into this enhanced, revised, and reformatted text. Divided into three parts covering the fundamentals of sport mechanics, mechanical principles,...
