Abstract(s)

Biomechanics plays a vital role in helping us understand how the human body moves, especially in the context of sports and physical activity. By applying principles from physics and engineering, biomechanical analysis allows us to study the forces acting on the body. This is incredibly valuable not only for enhancing athletic performance but also for health and physical activity-related analysis. Recent technological advances, including motion capture systems, force plates, electromyography (EMG), and computational fluid dynamics, have provided us with powerful tools for measuring and modeling movement with unparalleled precision [1– 3]. These technologies have been adopted across various sports, including running, cycling, and swimming, helping athletes and coaches in enhancing their performance techniques [2, 3 ]. In addition, the emergence of wearable technology and artificial intelligence (AI) has further advanced real-time analysis capabilities. Today, athletes can receive immediate feedback through sensors embedded in their gear, allowing them to adjust their technique on the spot, which also plays a big part in preventing injuries [1]
