About My Research and Academic Interests
As someone interested in both engineering systems and human performance, I enjoy research that lets me combine both areas. My current research focuses on Olympic weightlifting performance, data analytics, and mechanical engineering applications related to design and prototyping.
Research / Academic Interest List
- Olympic Weightlifting Trends
- Max Lift Tracking: Studying historical and recent max lift records to identify trends.
- World Record Progression: How performance levels have changed over time.
- Influences: The impact of equipment, training, and weight classes on results.
- Gender-Based Comparison in Sports
- Men vs. Women: Data-based analysis of performance gaps and overlaps.
- Strength-to-Weight Ratios: Exploring how performance differs across bodyweight classes.
- Representation: Examining how gender inclusion has evolved in Olympic lifting.
- Engineering and Data Tools
