HHP 3570: Biomechanics (2023-2024)

View all HHP classes

This course explores the principles of motion (Newtonian Mechanics) through discussion and laboratory experiments with such topics as gait, nature of forces, work-energy-power, torque, muscle-tendon force dynamics, rheology, aerodynamics/hydrodynamics and offers analyses of selected activities. Students will explore biomechanical concepts using laboratory equipment such as force-plates, isokinetic dynamometers and goniometers. Fee(s): Physical Ed Course Fee
