Human Body Dynamics, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2000 Classical Mechanics and Human Movement
Langue : Anglais
Auteur : Tözeren Aydin
A quantitative approach to studying human biomechanics, presenting principles of classical mechanics using case studies involving human movement. Vector algebra and vector differentiation are used to describe the motion of objects and 3D motion mechanics are treated in depth. Diagrams and software-created sequences are used to illustrate human movement.
