Definition Kinematics Kinetics
6
Kinematic Variables Temporal characteristics Position or location Displacement Velocity Acceleration
7
Linear versus Angular Kinematics Position or location Displacement (d vs. ) Velocity (v vs. ) Acceleration (a vs. )
8
Kinetics Forces Mechanical action or effect applied to a body that tends to produce acceleration Push or pull
9
Kinetics - Forces Mutual interaction between 2 bodies - produces deformation of bodies and/or - affects motion of bodies
10
Force (vector) Point of application Direction Magnitude
11
Mass Quantity of matter (kg) Center of Mass
12
Force Systems Linear Parallel F1F1 F2F2 F1F1 F2F2 F3F3
13
Force Systems Concurrent General F1F1 F2F2 F1F1 F3F3 F3F3 F2F2 F4F4
14
Force Systems Force Couple F1F1 F2F2
15
Center of Mass/Gravity Point at which body’s mass is equally distributed Balance point
16
Pressure Force / Area
17
Moment or Force / Torque (T) Degree to which a force tends to rotate an object Torque twist Moment bend
18
Moment or Force / Torque (T) T = f * ma ma = moment arm, lever arm, torque arm Shortest distance ( ) from AOR to line of force
19
Moment T = F * ma T = 20 lbs. * 12 in. T = 240 in-lbs. 12” 20 lbs.
20
Moments Coxa Varum
21
Newton’s Laws of Motion
22
Law of Inertia (1) Body at rest or in uniform motion will tend to remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force
23
Law of Acceleration (2) a f causing it Acceleration acts in same direction as f f = m * a
24
Law of Reaction (3) Every action = & opposite reaction Biomechanics Book - w = mg + w = mg
25
Law of Reaction Ground Reaction Forces
26
Equilibrium At rest (static) or Constant linear/angular velocities (dynamic) Sum of forces = 0 (3d) Sum of moments = 0 (3d)
27
Work and Power Work = Force * distance Power = Work / time
28
Momentum “quantity of motion” p = m * v (linear) Bigger & faster they are, the harder they hit

44
Inefficient Human Body? 3 rd class: F E > movement of distal segment (goal) 2 nd class: F E (gravity) control
45
Forces Acting on Human Internal - muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones External - Gravity, wind, water, another person
46
Stress Internal resistance of a material to an imposed load = force / area Pascal = 1 N/m 2
47
Axial Stress Axial (Normal) stress ( ) - compressive - tensile Shear stress ( ) - forces acting parallel or tangential
48
Strain Change in shape or deformation as a result of an imposed external load/stress shape / original shape L / L 0 Compressive,tensile, shear(angulation)
49
Strain TT C S

Linear Stress-Strain Curves Stress ( ) Strain ( ) A B
51
Stress and Strain Slope = / as slope stiffness
52
Stress and Strain Elastic Region Yield Point or Elastic Limit Ultimate Failure or Fracture Point Strain or Deformation( ) Stress or Load ( ) Plastic Region
53
Stress and Strain Elastic Region stiffness Young’s Modulus (E) = slope in elastic region E = /

55
Poisson’s Effect/Ratio C TT Applied compressive load tensile stress & strain
56
Poisson’s Effect/Ratio Applied tensile load compressive stress & strain T T CC
57
Poisson’s Ratio = - (transverse strain / axial strain) = - ( t / a )
58
Viscoelasticity Viscosity resistance to flow ability to lessen shear force Elasticity ability to return to original shape after deforming load is removed
59
Viscoelasticity Purely elastic – returns to original shape w/ no energy loss Load (deform) Unload (return)
60
Viscoelastic Delayed return response and loss of heat energy (hysteresis) Load (deform) Unload (return)
61
Viscoelastic Elastic effects - rate of elastic return dependent on material properties Viscous effects (time-dependent properties) - Creep - Stress-Relaxation
62
Creep Test Material/tissue is subjected to a sudden, constant load ( ) Constant is maintained Deformation ( ) is recorded over time Measure of viscoelastic nature of material
63
Creep Tissue deforms rapidly 2 0 sudden load (elastic) Continues to deform or creep beyond initial deformation (viscous) Definition – material deforms as a function of time under the action of a constant load
64
Creep – FSU
66
Stress Relaxation Constant strain ( ) level Develops an initial resistance or stress at that held deformation At that held deformation the stress ( ) or relaxes
