The term Kinesiology is well described as the study of human movement including body segments and organ system to promote better health. It could be defined as the study of the principles of mechanics and anatomy in relation to human movement [1]. It has been derived from a Greek word called kinesis meaning movement. It consists of physiological, psychological, and biomechanical domains. To restrict ourselves to the objective of this book we shall focus on the kinesiology aspects of biomechanics here. The human biomechanics which has been subdivided into kinematics and kinetics, their interrelation and interplay form the basis of kinesiology. We have learnt the simplified biomechanics in the previous chapters and focused on the linear kinematics and kinetics. In this section we will learn the concepts and principles of angular kinematics and kinetics which actually governs the kinesiology of human musculoskeletal system. The quantification for kinesiology is subject to mathematical operations. We shall learn the physical concepts and principles of kinesiology which is applicable to human biomechanics in common practice. |
