Graduate Courses BIOE 2721BIOE 2721 - Human Movement BiomechanicsInstructor: Redfern Credits: 3 Term: Fall Description:This course will focus on methods of analyzing human movement. The major focus will be on measurement and analysis of whole body movement. Engineering techniques will be used including 3-D rigid body kinematics and inverse dynamics using matrix algebra techniques. The goals of this course are: 1) to understand computational methods of kinematics analysis using multi-link systems and be able to implement these methods in the analysis of human movement. 2) To be able to implement inverse dynamics to estimate forces and torques on joints during movement. 3) To learn the fundamentals of surface electromyography and its use in the analysis of human movement.
