biomechanics research
Biomechanics research studies how the human body moves and responds to forces, combining principles from physics, engineering, and biology. It aims to understand the mechanics of muscles, bones, joints, and tissues during activities like walking, running, or lifting. This knowledge helps improve athletic performance, develop better medical treatments, design more effective prosthetics and orthotics, and prevent injuries. By analyzing motion and force interactions, biomechanics provides insights into optimizing human movement for health, performance, and safety.
