SynopsisBasic Biomechanics by Susan Hall is based on the latest research literature findings and introduces readers to essential concepts of the subject. Both quantitative and qualitative examples are used in this biological physics textbook to illustrate the content. Elaborating on anatomy as well as mechanics of the human body, this book on anatomy and mechanics is suitable for under-graduate engineering mechanics. Basic Biomechanics by Susan Hall covers topics like What is Biomechanics, and Kinematic Concepts for Analyzing Human Motion. Thanks to the mathematical appendix, the material in this biological physics textbook is accessible to all students. Basic Biomechanics by Susan Hall also looks at The Biomechanics of Human Bone Growth and Development. This book on anatomy and mechanics is relevant to sport medicine, and also useful to occupational physicians and orthopedists, as it helps them to understand ergonomics, and overuse injuries, including musculoskeletal ones.
