Research

Introduction

Listing of journal articles, conference papers, book chapters , books and theses published by AIS Biomechanics and Performance Analysis staff whilst working at the AIS. The inagural Head of the AIS Biomechanics Department was Dr Bruce Mason.

Please note that AIS Biomechanics and Performance Analysis staff work with other AIS sport science disciplines and external researchers. As a result, where there are multiple authors not all authors may belong to the Department.

Ordering

Journal articles, book chapters and conference papers can be ordering through the National Sport Information Centre 
Books can be borrowed on inter-library loan through your local library.
Theses may be obtained through relevant University Library.
