IPHY 4540 - Biomechanics Course uri icon

Overview

description

  • Applies the principles of physics and physiology to analyze the movement of humans and other animals. Assesses the mechanical properties of muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones. Quantitatively analyzes forces, torque, mechanical energy, power impulses and momentum associated with human movement. Students enroll in a lab, and the enrolled lab will have a designated recitation and lecture attached. All registration restrictions will be strictly enforced by the department. Recommended prerequisites: IPHY 3415 and calculus (MATH 1300 or MATH 1310 or APPM 1350) and statistics (IPHY 3280 or EBIO 1010 or MATH 2510 or PSYC 2111 or SOCY 2061). Same as IPHY 5540.
