AbstractIntroduction in dynamics, kinetics and kinematic of rigid and elastic multi-body systems with examples in technology, biology, medicine and especially the human movement
Learning objectiveThe students are able
- to analyse and describe dynamic systems
- to explain the mechanical laws and use them in technology, biology and medicine
ContentThe students can explain the fundamental concepts of the following topics and apply them to exercises from biomechanics and medicine.
- Kinematics of movement
- Kinetics of movement
- Energy, momentum, mechanics of collisions
- Angular momentum
- Coordinatesystems and -transforms
- Kinematics of multibody-systems
- Lagrange formalisms
- Kinetics of multibody-systems and energyflow
- Inverse dynamics
- Musclemechanics
- Muscle optimisations
