2 016

THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE IN SPORTS SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY (ICSST) RETURNS FOR THE 2ND TIME AFTER ITS SUCCESSFUL INAUGURAL RUN.

Organised by the Institute for Sports Research (ISR), an international collaboration between Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore and Loughborough University (LU), UK, the 2nd ICSST aspires to incorporate a wider scope of topics and a bigger gathering of leading academic scientists, researchers, scholars, international speakers, renowned industry practitioners and students from around the world.

2014 saw the 1st ICSST attract about 300 delegates from 20 countries. Continuing the in-depth and thought-provoking knowledge exchange, the 2nd ICSST will involve discussions on the latest research findings under the following symposia:

Symposium on Advanced Materials for Sports Technology1

Symposium on Sports Product Engineering2

Symposium on Sports Science312 – 13 December 2016

THE 2ND ICSST COMMITTEE ALSO INVITES YOU TO SUBMIT ABSTRACTS FOR ONE OF THE THREE SYMPOSIA, AS AN ORAL OR POSTER PRESENTATION.

SYMPOSIUM ON ADVANCED MATERIALS FOR SPORTS TECHNOLOGYAdvanced materials have been increasingly used in all types of sportswear, sports equipment and facilities. This symposium aims to present the latest advancement in sports materials and technology. The scope covers the processing, characterization and performance evaluation of polymers, metals & alloys, ceramics, and composites for sports applications.

SYMPOSIUM ON SPORTS PRODUCT ENGINEERINGAnnually, millions are spent on engineering and research into various aspects relating to sports. This has inadvertently improved sporting equipment and has resulted in safer practices and enhanced performance. Examples of engineering innovations are evident from sporting activities from motor racing, cycling to tennis and golf. In addition, technology has also been deployed to improve the experience of spectators through the use of wearable cameras and wireless sensors. Papers are invited on various aspects of engineering.

SYMPOSIUM ON SPORTS SCIENCESports science supports the development and performance of elite and recreational athletes. This symposium will highlight emerging sports science research topics and how sports science can be incorporated in the development of new sports technologies. The symposium will cover physiological, biomechanical and psychological strategies aimed at improving athletic performance and discuss how technology can aid these strategies.
