Tennis Kinematics Transient Analysis: A Ball Spin & Racket Collision Description [Miltiadis A. Boboulos]

Tennis is an extraordinary game full of high dynamics and elegance; as well as strain and unexpected moments. Powerful and precise shots, the ball flying in the court at a high speed, and the lightness, briskness, and quick mind of top players are really an extraordinary performance and demonstration of the power, intellect, and endurance of man. In this FREE, ready-for-download eBook, the reader will find a study detailing the basic initial data and characteristics of tennis as a game, as well as of the equipment and devices that are used. The game's health and performance aspects are also examined on account of their sufficient technical improvement. In that respect, special attention is paid to the dynamics of the collision--when the ball meets the racket. Could we sufficiently determine precisely and explicitly all the data involved in the dynamics of the collision, ball resilience (coefficient of restoration), as well as the technical characteristics of composite materials for modern tennis rackets? Alternatives in the design and manufacturing technology of certain tennis rackets in serial production are reviewed, including Head, Wilson, Prince, Yonix, and Dunlop manufacturers for such an attainment.
