Intended learning outcomes
The aim of the curricular unit of Biomechanics is to convey to the students a set of knowledge and methodologies with which they are allowed to analyse the movement of biomechanical systems, in particular of the human body.
The knowledge and methodologies are based on the theory of Classical Mechanics, in the experimental measurement of the movement kinematics and dynamics and computer simulation as a tool in support of the clinical diagnosis and development of biomedical devices.
It is intended to develop skills of qualitative and quantitative analysis of human movement, anthropometric characteristics, kinematics and dynamics characterization of movement and modelling, simulation and computational analysis of biomechanical systems.
