Mos of he inesigaions a his oerhead smash ma find difficul in finding he iniial eloci (afer impac) of a shulecock. In his sud, he fligh performance of hree shulecock models namel Feaher Yone, Nlon Mizuho, and Nlon Gozen was inesigaed during oerhead smash. Addiional comparison beween sanding and jumping smashes was also inesigaed. Correced iniial eloci b using regression equaion mehod was performed and he reducion of eloci a cerain disances was inesigaed. The record of racque swing and shulecock fligh afer impac from high speed camera were obsered. The shulecock release poin was drawn in he X-Y coordinae in a linear form. The equaion for he racque swing was Y = a X + b and he pah for shulecock was (Y = a.x + b ). I was found ha Nlon Mizuno had he lowes iniial eloci, while Feaher Yoned and Nlon Gozen had similar alue. Afer raeling for 5 meers, he eloci of boh sanding and jumping smashes reduced ino 3-4% of he iniial eloci. Furhermore, he inesigaion beween sanding and jumping smashes showed ha he iniial eloci of jumping is higher han ha of sanding smash. Thus, jumping smash can be considered as he main weapon when plaing badminon. Kewords: Iniial eloci, Shulecock, Oerhead smash, Badminon, Regression.. Inroducion Badminon is one of he mos popular and oldes spors on earh. I is repored ha oer million people plaed badminon around he world []. Badminon game 9

2 9 A. Rusdiana and A. P. A. Musari is a racque spor plaed wih a feaher shulecock. The shulecock is aerodnamicall shaped and has low mass, hus i deceleraes er quickl as i flies in he air due o he drag force of he air []. Some shulecocks are made of naural feaher and some ohers are made of snheic rubber. Generall, boh pes of shulecocks hae a mass around grams, diameer of he cork is 5 8 mm and he diameer of he circle is around 54 mm []. Mos amaeur plaers use a snheic shulecock because i is more durable and cheaper compared o feaher shulecock which is predominanl used b professional plaers. The fligh rajecor of he feaher and snheic shulecocks are significanl differen from he balls uilized in mos racque spors due o er high iniial speed [3,4]. For ears researchers hae sudied he naure of a shulecock regarding is rajecor, maerial, roaion, ec. Seeral sudies had been conduced o inesigae he parabolic rajecor of shulecock [,5]. A sud a differen Renolds number (Re) shows low drag coefficien for shulecock wihou a gap in comparison o he one wih gap [6]. Comparison beween naural feaher and snheic shulecocks shows lower drag force for naural feaher when esed in wind unnel [,3,5,7-9]; howeer, one should keep in mind ha calculaion of drag force, heoreicall, is highl affeced b iniial eloci (afer impac). Thus, iniial eloci should be obsered carefull o obain he correc number of drag force. Among he badminon skills, he oerhead smash sroke is he mos powerful sho and comple because of is speed and seep rajecor []. The speed of shulecock decreases significanl due o drag force ha is highl influenced influenced b iniial eloci []. Seeral mehods hae been used o measure raeling speed such as radar gun and he high-speed camera. Howeer, boh mehods canno measure iniial eloci. Radar gun required highl capable operaor so i can be used effeciel. The radar gun also canno differ beween arges (racque and shulecock), hus operaor plas an imporan role []. And mos imporanl, he radar gun is measuring insananeous speed raher han iniial speed. On he oher hand, he high speed camera is commonl-used for higher specs. And speed calculaion using high-speed camera is mos likel o produce aerage or insananeous because of he difficul of obaining figure eacl when impac beween racque and shulecock occur [8]. The posiion of shulecock when i jus releases from he ne of a racque is reall hard o decide. In addiion, low picure quali and insufficien sampling frequenc are among he lis of he problems[]. Forunael, for real case (no in he wind unnel), mos of he sudies inesigaed in he area of low eloci of shulecock like a drop sho, so inaccurac of iniial speed can be negligible. Since undersanding in he area of a high-speed siuaion during oerhead smash is limied, he main objecie of his work is a comparaie analsis of eloci reducion of naural feaher and snheic using a regression equaion o obain iniial eloci. In addiion, comparison of he iniial eloci of sanding and jumping smashes on feaher shulecock was gien. This sud is imporan since here hae no been scienific references of shulecock speed release using phsics analsis. There are acuall seeral sudies on speed release using machines merel; howeer, in he real life, here is Journal of Engineering Science and Technolog Special Issue /7

Procedure The paricipan was a righ-handed uniersi badminon plaer, ears old,.7m heigh and had a mass of 6 kg. Afer a general and a specific badminon warm-up, he subjec was asked o hi eigh shulecocks wih he maimal speed smash sho. The shulecock rajecor was recorded using a high-speed ideo camera (Phanom Miro-eX, USA) se a frames/sec and / eposure ime.

Roughl, he comparison shows sligh differen among all elociies. Howeer, eloci afer impac wih feaher has he lowes aerage eloci, while nlon mizuno has he highes eloci. Jumping smash on feaher shows increase of racque eloci in comparison wih sanding smash. Table 7. Comparison of racque eloci righ afer he impac wih paricular shulecocks. Shule Feaher Nlon mizuno Nlon gozen Jumping smash Aerage Discussion The presen inesigaion has deeloped a regression approach based calculaion for obaining iniial eloci during oerhead smash. This approach enabled he deerminaion of racque-shulecock impac posiion and iniial eloci for oerhead smash whils oercoming he difficulies presen b oher echnolog. Mos preious sudies inesigae he rajecor of shulecock during drop sho where eloci is no so high [,3]. McErlain-Nalor e al deeloped mehod using cure fiing mehod which is close o our mehod [4]. Howeer, in his mehod, i was assumed ha seeral posiions a he beginning, jus afer impac, was sill fligh in sraigh pah [5]. The resul of iniial eloci (Fig. 7) reealed ha afer impac feaher shulecock had high iniial eloci ogeher wih nlon gozen (small difference). This resul ma srongl relaed o maerial of shulecock s head. Theoreicall, parameers ha ma affec iniial eloci are mass, shooing power, resiuion consan of he maerial. Since all of he esed shulecocks had he same mass hen his reason should be omied. Thus, he maerial of he head had a high possibili of affecing is iniial eloci. To elaborae more regarding his reason, furher inesigaion should be conduced. Tpical iscoelasic impac characerisaion ma appropriae for esing [6]. Since he es conduced using he same racque for eer rial, hus effec of resiuion of ne of he racque can be eliminaed. The final eloci of shulecock afer 5 and 9 m seems o be following negaie eponenial paern. I was heoreicall acceped since reducion of eloci is mos likel due o drag force, which is affeced b quadra eloci. On he oher hand, difference of percenage among shulecock ma be due siffness of he maerial. Afer he impac, shulecock will be in opposie direcion wih ecor eloci, afer hen i will roae and hae he same direcion wih eloci. During his process, due o air resisance, shulecock will be deformed a lile bi, i.e. ge wider, as consequence drag force will increase sharpl. Maerial wih high deformaion (bigger dimension) will eperience higher drag force. According o he resul, i seems ha nlon mizuno has he highes deformaion. And he leas deformaion ehibi b nlon gozen or in oher word his maerial had high siffness leel. Howeer, furher inesigaion is needed o confirm his Journal of Engineering Science and Technolog Special Issue /7

Comparison beween sanding and jumping smashes using he feaher as shown in Fig. shows quie similar paern and alue. In anoher word, an onl small difference occurs for boh mechanisms. Howeer, in deailed obseraion, jumping smash ehibis higher iniial eloci han sanding posiion. Afer he impac racque eloci comparison shows small discrepanc among all alues. This shows ha racque eloci was less affeced b he pe of shulecock. This migh be due o he reali ha he racque ha conneced o human bod had much higher momen ineria. The mehod being used o calculae iniial eloci was er useful o oercome difficul of comple (skill demanding) mehod and high cos mehod. More imporanl, he mehod proides beer obseraion of iniial eloci, which will affec calculaion of drag (air) force. This mehod can be used using wih a low capuring speed camera. Thus, his will conribue o improemen of raining mehod of badminon around he world. 5. Conclusion Calculaion of iniial eloci (afer impac) in oerhead sanding and jumping smashes was successfull conduced. Comparison on eloci reducion of naural feaher and snheic was conduced using iniial eloci daa using regression approach. The comparison shows ha Nlon-Mizuno had highes eloci reducion afer cerain disances (5 and 9 m). In he meanime, Feaher Yone and Nlon-Gozen hae similar iniial eloci. Howeer, Nlon-Gozen was less affeced b air resricion (drag force) in comparison o feaher. Furhermore, he inesigaion beween sanding and jumping smashes showed ha he iniial eloci of jumping is higher han ha of sanding smash. Thus, jumping smash can be considered as he main weapon when plaing badminon.
