Topic: Methods of analysis in Sports biomechanics
Order Description
lab report in the form,
maximum of 500 words (not including section headings, figure and table captions,
and equations). The writing style should be similar to, although more concise than,
that of a Journal of Biomechanics short communication.
Reports should:
Comprise four/five sections: introduction; methods; results; and discussion /
conclusions;
Include one figure, and one table;
be no longer than two sides of A4;
in two columns;
have 2.54 cm margins;
be in Arial size 12 font;
and be 1.5 spaced.
The report will be based on Labs 2 & 3 wherein you will collect and analyse data on
a sprint start. You should focus mainly on the methods and results sections,
detailing what you did and what you found, with only a very brief introduction and
discussion / conclusion. The split should be roughly:
Introduction and discussion / conclusions: 100-200 words total
Methods and results: 300-400 words total
The methods section should include as much detail as possible within the constraint
of the word limit, including key equations.
