Abstract

The panel architecture of the soccer balls used in the World Cup has changed in every four years' convention. It is understood that the change in the panel structure in the soccer ball exerts a big influence on the aerodynamic characteristics. It is well known that the non-rotating shot by "Team Geist" appeared in 2006 becomes a oscillating ball in the long or middle distance shot. In 2014, Brazuca, composed of 6 bending panels, became an official soccerball. The aerodynamic characteristics were investigated in this study. The specification of the ball was similar to that of the convetional soccerball.
