Biomechanics and motor control of human movement /
Winter, David A.,1930-
Hoboken, N.J. : Wiley,
c2009.
"Widely used and referenced, David Winter's Biomechanics and Motor Control of Human Movement is a classic examination of techniques used to measure and analyze all body movements as mechanical systems, including such everyday movements as walking. It fills the gap in the human movement science area where modern science and technology are integrated with anatomy, muscle physiology, and electromyography to assess and understand human movement. In light of the explosive growth of the field, this new edition updates and enhances the text."--BOOK JACKET.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Biomechanics as an interdiscipline -- Signal processing -- Kinematics -- Anthropometry -- Kinetics : forces and moments of force -- Mechanical work, energy, and power -- Three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics -- Synthesis of human movement : forward solutions -- Muscle mechanics -- Kinesiological electromyography -- Biomechanical movement synergies.
