The Engineering of Sport 6
The International Sports Engineering Association (ISEA) was launched in 1998 as a response to the enthusiasm created by the 1st and 2nd International Conferences on the Engineering of Sport. The primary aim of the ISEA is to act as a forum to discuss technical and scientific issues relating to sport and sport technology for those carrying out research and development in this field. The members of the ISEA come from a wide range of disciplines from engineering to sports science, from research organisations, universities and relevant industries world wide. Since the launch of ISEA in 1998 in Sheffield (UK), biannual conferences have took place in Sydney (Australia), Kyoto (Japan), and two years ago in Davis (USA). In 2006 the biannual conference is being held in Munich following the FIFA World Cup 2006 Germany. ISEA publishes the International Sports Engineering Journal, which represents one of the leading scholarly journals in the field of Sports Engineering, now in its 9th successful year.
The editors
"It is fitting that the biggest International Sports Engineering conference so far has been organised by Eckehard Fozzy Moritz. Fozzy is big both in stature and in ideas, willing to do as all good designers do in thinking outside the box. The conference, to which this proceedings refers, will have been an enjoyable affair since Fozzy rarely does anything without fun (or at least with an element of the unexpected)! Fozzy was instrumental in setting up DIVERS, the German society for sports engineering, and now has a dynamic group of people around him in his unique centre for innovation in sports, the SportKreativWerkstatt. The design of this proceedings is testament to the hard work of Fozzy and his team in the creation of something dynamic and yet different for the world of sports engineering." Stephen J. Haake
"Steve Haake IS sports engineering. With the organization of the first conference on sports engineering in 1996, and the editing of the very first set of proceedings on this topic, he was the one who made this field popular in the world and acceptable in academic circles. Further milestones followed that are all still successful today: The foundation of the International Sports Engineering Association that he has chaired for almost a decade, the establishment of a scientific journal on sports engineering, the origination of novel institutions like the Sports Engineering Network and SportsPulse in England; and since March 2006 Professor Haake is head of the Centre for Sports and Exercise Science at Sheffield Hallam University.
The secret to Steve's success is openness and hospitality. When I approached him in 1998, to learn more about sports engineering and how to relate this to my own field of innovation, Steve was simply inviting me over to his place and shared ideas, competence and knowledge with me. Similar encounters followed that greatly helped my work: I have to say I am very proud to have Steve as a co-editor of these proceedings." Eckehard Fozzy Moritz
Synopsis of Current Developments: Soccer Matt Carre Sports Engineering Research Group, Universityof Sheffield, m.j .carre@shef.ac.uk
Soccer is arguably the biggest sport in the world, in terms of the impact on everyday lives, either through spectating or participation. Indeed, as the conference to which these proceedings are linked begins, we will all still be recovering from the excitement of the 2006 World Cup final that occurred in Berlin a few days previously. A sport that has so much impact, unsurprisingly also generates great research interest, reflected in the number of papers in the following section as well as in other sections of these proceedings. In sports engineering this research is fairly well distributed between four key components of the game: the ball, the pitch, the footwear used and the players themselves.
The soccer ball has been re-designed and improved many times over the years and current designs employ a combination of careful material selection and sophisticated manufacturing techniques to produce balls which are impressive in terms of performance, durability and consistency. Ronkainen and Harland describe a technique using laser Doppler vibrometry to carry out modal analysis of a soccer ball. This will be of great use in determining the mechanical response of a ball due to dynamic loadingand aid in the further improvement of ball design. Asai et al. concentrate their efforts on the flight of the ball and combine some traditional wind tunnel experiments for spinning and non-spinning soccer balls with a truly innovative method of obtaining flow visualisations for real, kicked balls.
The data obtained and findings observed will undoubtedly be of great use to future studies of soccer ball aerodynamics. Two papers in this section are concerned with the performance of the pitch. AIcatara et al. examine synthetic soccer surfaces, in particular those that incorporate an in-fill of sand and
The paper by Jennings-Temple et al. looks at the more traditional surface used in soccer, natural turf, and they investigatethe link between physical soil propertiesand playing quality for player-surface interaction. In many countries, soccer is played during the winter season and the pitch is exposed to harsh weather conditions, which can have a detrimental effect on the game. The findings from this study can be used to improve pitch-management and maintenance strategies, improving the quality of play for players and spectators alike."
