The other day when I read the thread of FREESTYLE STROKE I found many technique terms of swimming, like catch water, anchor your hand, etc. Or shall I say a lot of swimming physics or principles?
Could someone recommend some onlie free articles about this swimming physics? I am a new swimmer.
Thanks a lot.

The basic concepts are very simple. The way it should be.
Don't try to think too hard about it. Swimmers learn to feel the water after the basics are mastered.
I found an interesting link to a university that discusses "the Biomechanics of Human Motion". Alot of it has to do with swimming, especially Chapter 6. It's very scientific, if that's what you're looking for.

Thanks, Jim. I download it and find it is a content list without any complete article. But the chapter six looks great. I wonder if the link you supplied is limited to authorised users.

Unfortunately the first link cannot be connected from my city. I was a little annoyed since I had seen several people referring to this website.which I could not connect every time I try. It has nothing to do with politics, does it? I cannot understand why it is restricted.
Yes, quicksilver, the basic concepts, that is what I am looking for. I saw people talking about grip water, s pull, etc. I want to know why I should grip water, why I should do s pull, what is the scientific or physics support behind these techniques.
The GOSWIM link is very interesting. I am in the library section right now. Thank you very much.
Found this article re swim physics, very interesting www.swim-city.com/library.php3
Very interesting, George. I thought about this question when I read the FREESTYLE STROKE in which the meaning of EFFORTLESS was examined. But I did my thoughts from another approach, not as precise (using the equations) as this one. But the general conclusion was pretty much the same.

. Tree try by hiting the control buttonl when you open these sites, If you do not succeed I will see if I can send it to you.

George, where is the control button? I cannot open the site at all. It would be great if you could sent me one. Thanks.
On my key board it is the key just under the shift key.
Left of the space bar three keys over.
Bottom row of the key board first key from the left corner.
