Triple Jump Biomechanics: Computer Simulation | Dr Sam Allen

Lecture 23 of the Sports Biomechanics Lecture Series #SportsBiomLS
Sam Allen presents his research using computer simulation to study triple jump biomechanics from a theoretical perspective. The presentation includes a comparison of single and double arm techniques, a discussion of vertical and horizontal velocity trade-offs, and an optimisation of hop, step, and jump phase ratios.
