Experiment 2: Kinematics of Human Motion Abstract: Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies (objects) and systems (groups of objects) without consideration of the forces that cause the motion. There are four activities done in this experiment. Graphical analysis of human motion‚ where displacement vs time and velocity vs. time were graphed. Graphical analysis of motion where in the 10th seconds the total displacement is 18.75m‚ average velocity

Linear Kinematics. Fielding a backhand requires acceleration and deceleration. The fielder must accelerate towards the ball and decelerate when approaching the ball to field it. Acceleration occurs in the first three phases of the backhand and deceleration occurs in the critical phase‚ drive phase‚ when the fielder picks up the ball with their glove. Acceleration helps the athlete gain distance between the fielding positon and the ball. This allows the fielder to get their glove in front of the

Tibiofemoral Kinematics: A Dynamic‚ in Vivo Study Andrea R. Seisler and Frances T. Sheehan* Abstract—In order to advance biomechanical modeling‚ knee joint implant design and clinical treatment of knee joint pathology‚ accurate in vivo kinematic data of the combined patellofemoral and tibiofemoral joint during volitional activity are critical. For example‚ one cause of the increased prevalence of anterior knee pain in the female population is hypothesized to be altered tibiofemoral kinematics‚ resulting

The knowledge of this subject is very essential for an engineer in designing the various parts of a machine. 1.1 Sub-divisions of Theory of Machines The Theory of Machines may be sub-divided into the following four branches: 1. Kinematics. It is that branch of Theory of Machines which deals with the relative motion between the various parts of the machines. 2. Dynamics. It is that branch of Theory of Machines which deals with the forces and their effects‚ while acting upon the machine
