Abstract:
In order to improve the effect of certain theoretical basis for tennis coaches to correct technical movements and teaching training, a method oriented towards discrete gradient methods that can be used for computational solid mechanics is presented. The biggest feature of this method is that it can directly perform numerical simulation analysis on any point cloud model, without relying on any structured or unstructured grid model. Experimental results show that about 80% of the shots in the game are within 2.5 m of the athlete's moving distance, and the athlete needs to have 300 to 500 high-intensity exercises; the total running distance of the competition is 1 100-3 600 m. The average VO2 of athletes during the competition is 20-30 mL/min/kg (45%-55% V.O2max), the average heart rate is 135-155 beats/min (70%-85% HRmax), the mean blood lactate was <4 mmol/L, the subjective fatigue was 12-14 (moderate intensity), and the mean metabolic equivalent was 5-7 METs. It is proved that the discrete gradient method can effectively solve the biomechanical analysis problem of tennis forehand hitting the ball. Make up for the lack of action details in the differentiation stage. Improve the effect of certain theoretical basis for tennis coaches to correct technical movements and teaching training.

Relative Motion Analysis - Velocity
When an external force is exerted, it sets the crank into a rotational movement. This, in turn, instigates the motion of the connecting rod, leading to what is referred to as a general plane motion. This process involves two key points - point A on the connecting rod...
