Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the field of sport and exercise biomechanics has experienced significant advancements, driven by cutting-edge technology and innovative research methodologies. Advanced motion capture systems, wearable sensors, and sophisticated modeling software have revolutionized our ability to analyze and interpret human movement with unprecedented precision. These tools have facilitated deeper insight into the intricacies of movement patterns, muscle activation, and force generation. Moreover, the application of advanced computational models and machine learning algorithms provides deeper insights into complex biomechanical phenomena. By simulating various scenarios and predicting outcomes, these models assist in understanding technique execution and interactions with equipment and the environment.
The featured studies highlight the transformative impact of these advancements, showcasing how contemporary biomechanics research is enhancing our understanding of human movement and contributing to the fields of sports science, physical therapy, and health and exercise promotion.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
