Biomechanics
and Motor Control of Human Movement is The
Standard
Biomechanics
and Motor Control of Human Movement looks at human
body movement as a mechanical system and examines techniques
used to measure and analyze all body movements. Each limb
of the body is treated as a separate segment connected at
hinge joints. Muscles are replaced by actuators and the net
effect of all muscles is replaced by torque motors. The characteristics
of those actuators are documented, along with their neural
control as represented in the readily available electromyographic
signal. The book's organization is such that description of
the movement is covered first, followed by chapters that examine
the cause of the movement at kinetic and electromyographic
levels. Will appeal to all those involved in the study of
a wide variety of human movement problems--from pathological
gait to chronic running injuries. Material on biomechanical
techniques contributes to the understanding of such everyday
movements as walking and lifting. Information is integrated
with a common set of data and analyses. In addition, basic
physics principles are presented in capsule form for ease
of use. This text is a substantial revision of the widely
used Biomechanics of Human Movement, updated and retitled
to reflect progress in the field.
