Computer Simulation Modelling in Sport

Dear Colleagues,

Computer simulation modelling in sport gives researchers and coaches alike an understanding of the mechanics behind sports movements that is not possible with traditional experimental methodologies. Over the last 20 or so years, we have seen computer models in sport develop from very simple models with only a few degrees of freedom to far more complex multibody models to cover a broad range of activities and give the scientific and sports community an insight that was not previously possible. This Special Issue welcomes papers from the computer simulation community with a focus on either understanding/optimising performance or reducing injuries in sport.

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.
