Abstract/Contents:States that "in terms of player-surface interactions, there are two major components to playing quality: hardness (relating to running and falling on the surface) and traction (provided by player-shoe-surface contact)." Describes the development of the Queensland Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries (QDPI&F) automated turf tester. Details the components of the apparatus, stating that it "is able to create a profile of torque with respect to angular displacement of the rotatable shaft to define accurately the characteristics of the surface under test."
