  • AH 308A: Biomechanics

    4.00 Credits
    Merrimack College

    The scientific factors affecting human movement are studied. Biomechanical influences (linematics, kinetics, anthropometrics) are emphasized. Psychological and neurological control mechanisms are examined. Normal movement patterns are reviewed with emphasis on gait and throwing patterns throughout the course. Pathological implications are integrated into the course as the material progresses regionally from one area of the body to another. Modern techniques that quantify movement and movement patterns are investigated, some empirically. Prerequisites: (AH 306A, BI 316A) or (BI 122A, BI 123A) and Physics concurrently. Three hours and one laboratory period per week.
