Biomechanics is the interdisciplinary study of the mechanical aspects of living organisms, integrating principles from physics, engineering, and biology to understand how biological structures function. It explores the mechanics of tissues, organs, and systems at various scales, from cellular to organismal levels. In the human body, biomechanics plays a crucial role in understanding movement, posture, and the mechanical forces involved in activities such as walking, running, and sports.
Researchers in biomechanics utilize advanced technologies such as motion capture, force plates, and computational modeling to analyze and quantify the forces, torques, and deformations occurring within the body.
Applications of biomechanics extend beyond human movement, encompassing areas like prosthetics, orthopaedics, and ergonomics, aiding in the design of devices and interventions to improve performance, prevent injuries, and enhance rehabilitation.
Biomechanics also holds significance in sports science, as it provides insights into optimizing athletic performance, preventing injuries, and designing sports equipment. Moreover, the field contributes to the understanding of biological structures in various organisms, shedding light on evolutionary adaptations and inspiring innovations in bio-inspired engineering.
