Journal Article
Dunlop, G., Ardern, C., Einar Andersen, T., Lewin, C., Dupont, G., Ashworth, B., O’Driscoll, G., Rolls, A., Brown, S., & McCall, A. (2020). Return to Play practices following hamstring injury: A worldwide survey of 131 premier league football teams. Sports Medicine, 50, 829-840. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-019-01199-2

Purpose: Return-to-play (RTP) is an on-going challenge in professional football. Return-to-play related research is increasing. However, it is unknown to what extent the recommendations presented within research are being implemented by professional...

Joint range of motion entropy changes in response to load carriage in military personnel (2019)
Journal Article
Morrison, A., Hale, J., & Brown, S. (2019). Joint range of motion entropy changes in response to load carriage in military personnel. Human Movement Science, 66, Article 249-257. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.humov.2019.04.014

Background
Overuse accounts for 82% of injuries in military personnel, and these occur predominantly in the spine and low limbs. While non-linear analyses have shown changes in overall stability of the movement during load carriage, individual joint...

Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Brown, S., Kaliarntas, K., & Taylor, C. (2016, August). Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland. Poster presented at International Sports Science + Sports Medicine Conference 2016

Noncontact injuries occur during manoeuvres such as landing, accelerating and the side-cut. This investigation has assessed the prevalence and manoeuvres associated with noncontact injuries and the current warm up practice. An online questionnaire wa...

The key kinematic determinants of undulatory underwater swimming at maximal velocity (2015)
Journal Article
Connaboy, C., Naemi, R., Brown, S., Psycharakis, S., McCabe, C., Coleman, S., & Sanders, R. (2016). The key kinematic determinants of undulatory underwater swimming at maximal velocity. Journal of Sports Sciences, 34(11), 1036-1043. https://doi.org/10.1080/02640414.2015.1088162

The optimisation of undulatory underwater swimming is highly important in competitive swimming performance. Nineteen kinematic variables were identified from previous research undertaken to assess undulatory underwater swimming performance. The purpo...

The X-Factor: An evaluation of common methods used to analyse major inter-segment kinematics during the golf swing (2013)
Journal Article
Brown, S. J., Selbie, W. S., & Wallace, E. S. (2013). The X-Factor: An evaluation of common methods used to analyse major inter-segment kinematics during the golf swing. Journal of Sports Sciences, 31(11), 1156-1163. https://doi.org/10.1080/02640414.2013.775474

A common biomechanical feature of a golf swing, described in various ways in the literature, is the interaction between the thorax and pelvis, often termed the X-Factor. There is no consistent method used within golf biomechanics literature however t...

Determination of the swing technique characteristics and performance outcome relationship in golf driving for low handicap female golfers (2011)
Journal Article
Brown, S., Nevill, A. M., Monk, S. A., Otto, S. R., Selbie, W. S., & Wallace, E. S. (2011). Determination of the swing technique characteristics and performance outcome relationship in golf driving for low handicap female golfers. Journal of Sports Sciences, 29, 1483-1491. https://doi.org/10.1080/02640414.2011.605161

Previous studies on the kinematics of the golf swing have mainly focused on group analysis of male golfers of a wide ability range. In the present study, we investigated gross body kinematics using a novel method of analysis for golf research for a g...
