Full Description
Biomechanics is an interdisciplinary field that aims to study the mechanical aspects of motions in living organisms. The applications of biomechanical methods span a multitude of expertise in sports science, engineering, medical device development, ergonomics, injury, and rehabilitation. The common usage of biomechanical technology in human movement analysis involves motion capture systems. This book delves into the application of biomechanical techniques, specifically in sports and clinical settings. Its compilation of twelve chapters was written by researchers from various universities, educational institutions, medical institutions, and industrial partners, particularly from Malaysia, China, and Kazakhstan. These chapters also show the utilization of simple biomechanical techniques with limited resources in screening for risks of injury, identifying critical factors in sports performance, and detecting important biomechanical changes following an exercise intervention in clinical populations. Biomechanics in Sports and Clinical Applications inspires readers and researchers to further explore biomechanical technology to enhance sports performance and improve patients' conditions.
