The discussions in the journal mainly cover the fields of Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Kinematics, Biomechanics, Physical therapy and Ground reaction force. The research on Physical medicine and rehabilitation featured in Sports Biomechanics combines topics in other fields like Ankle, Athletes, Sprint and Elbow. The work on Sprint addressed in the journal expands to the thematically related Acceleration.
Topics in Kinematics explored in Sports Biomechanics were investigated in conjunction with research in Sagittal plane, Swing, Motion analysis, Range of motion and Trunk. Most of the works presented in it deals with Ground reaction force but it intersects with the subject of Force platform.
The main points discussed in the published papers deal with Kinematics, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Physical therapy, Biomechanics and Anatomy. The journal papers with studies in Kinematics featured incorporate elements of Ball (bearing), Sagittal plane, Swing, Range of motion and Trunk. The most cited papers explore topics in Physical medicine and rehabilitation which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Throwing, Surgery and Shock (mechanics).
Sports Biomechanics explores disciplines such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Kinematics, Biomechanics, Athletes and Mechanics. Physical medicine and rehabilitation research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Ankle, Chronic ankle instability, Elbow and Stroke. The majority of Kinematics studies are focused on the issues of Ground reaction force.
The journal holds forums on Biomechanics that merges themes from other disciplines such as Anterior cruciate ligament and Orthodontics. Athletes research in Sports Biomechanics involves the investigation of ACL injury studies, all of which are linked to disciplines such as Coronal plane. Sports Biomechanics connects the study in Mechanics with the closely related area of Torque.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Sports Biomechanics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Sports Biomechanics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.90% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 19.40% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 18.41% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.41% of all publications and 43.78% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)Pursuing an online engineering degree offers flexibility and accessibility for students balancing work and study. With a growing number of accredited programs, affordability is a key factor to consider when selecting the right school, ensuring quality education without excessive debt.
For those aiming to advance into leadership roles within technical or corporate environments, an online PhD in organizational leadership provides the skills necessary to manage teams, projects, and strategic initiatives effectively. This path combines technical knowledge with critical leadership training.
Starting with an associate degree can be an excellent stepping stone into engineering and technology fields. These programs tend to be more accessible and affordable, allowing students to build foundational skills before pursuing higher degrees.
Additionally, those interested in the construction sector should explore the construction management degree cost and programs available online. Understanding budgeting, scheduling, and project coordination through affordable online degrees can lead to lucrative career opportunities in this expanding industry.
