Separate names with a comma.
That could be because Yonex measure string thickness while tensioned.
Yes, but it would have to be both static and dynamic tests, as both static stiffness and dynamic stiffness are key data properties for strings....
Yes, the measurements are likely affected by temperature, if badminton strings behave similar to tennis strings. I'm sure it is not an easy job to...
Has anyone come across data for mechanical properties for badminton strings? Properties like Young's modulus, static stiffness, dynamic stiffness,...
Inputs anyone?
Yes, and imo. it is the single most important property of a racket. I don't think you are :-) It's fine to just grab a racket and go ahead, but...
Agreed. About the correlation between height and hand size, I didn't know that, but it makes sense. I guess there also must be a high variance...
The most common approach in finding a suitable racket seems to be to try out different rackets and find one that "feels good". Your good questions...
Most Yonex rackets here in Denmark have G4 size, which I think is too big for the average player, in Europe at least. G5 size would be a better...
I have been trying to figure out what mechanical/physical properties might be behind the terms used in the Yonex string guide. It would have been...
I believe they did, as they used the drag coefficient for a circular cross-section to model the drag of the strings. All the other details you...
True, not by much though, around 20% or 0.7 grams if you compare 0.68 mm. strings with 0.61 mm. strings, assuming same material/density and...
@visor The above swingweight values from Badminton Racket Review are with strings, so these are not directly comparable with swingweight values...
@speCulatius I was basically trying to tell you, that your assumption about the racket head area by far accounts for the biggest share of drag, is...
In the Ph.D. Thesis 'Designing the World’s Best Badminton Racket' (Kwan, 2010) there is some interesting numbers for aerodynamics. According to...
According to Badminton Racket Review Astrox 55 has a swingweight of 88 kgcm2. Stiffness of shaft is 1.18, which is rated as 'Stiff', but not...
