Sports Biomechanics and Sports Technology

Dear Colleagues,

Sports biomechanics and sports technology are areas of great importance for the advancement of knowledge and the improvement of sports practice. These fields are responsible for studying and applying the physical and mechanical principles that govern human movement and the behavior of materials and devices used in sports. Additionally, the measurement process of physical activity and sports involves the use of accurate instruments to conduct various measurements, such as kinetic, kinematic, and physiological variables, and similar metrics. In this context, the validity and reliability of instruments are of paramount importance, as new technological devices emerging each year aim to produce meaningful outcomes that are consistent and in agreement with the true measured values. By creating articles on these subjects, the results of research and innovations in the field of sports can be disseminated, while also promoting debate and collaboration among professionals, researchers and society in general.

The objective of this Special Issue of the journal Applied Sciences is to disseminate scientific and practical knowledge on sports biomechanics and sports technology and promote the exchange of experiences and best practices among professionals and researchers in the field of sports.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
