Dr Ian Bezodis

Mae fy ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar ddadansoddiad mecanyddol o symudiad mewn chwaraeon, yn enwedig rhedeg sbrintiau. Mae gen i ddiddordeb penodol mewn gwerthuso a nodweddu sbrintio elît trwy ddefnyddio modelu cyhyrysgerbydol o'r aelodau is, ac ymchwiliadau i'r berthynas rhwng hyd cam-amledd cam. Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn cymhwyso'r canfyddiadau hyn i chwaraeon eraill lle mae sbrintio yn chwarae rhan bwysig mewn perfformiad.
