Foundations of Biomechanics: A Comprehensive Guide to Measuring, Modeling, and Analyzing Human Movement Using Kinematics, Kinetics, Electromyography, and Computational Simulation covers the full scope of modern biomechanics - from fundamental principles of motion and force through advanced musculoskeletal modeling - in a single, structured volume designed for both academic learning and clinical application.

The text builds your understanding systematically. Core concepts in kinematics and kinetics establish the framework for describing and quantifying motion, while dedicated coverage of electromyography bridges muscle physiology with signal acquisition, processing, and interpretation. Computational simulation methods then extend these principles into predictive modeling, equipping you to analyze movement patterns that direct observation alone cannot fully capture. Every concept connects to practical measurement methodology, real-world data interpretation, and applied research or clinical reasoning.

What distinguishes Foundations of Biomechanics from both encyclopedic references and condensed summaries is its integration of theory, instrumentation, and applied analysis - supported by more than 100 teaching and demonstration videos accessible through integrated QR codes that bring measurement techniques and analytical methods to life beyond the printed page, and by clinical images and illustrations throughout the text that reinforce complex biomechanical principles visually.

Inside this volume:

  • Kinematics - Joint angles, angular velocity, coordinate systems, and motion capture methods for describing movement
  • Kinetics - Ground reaction forces, joint moments, inverse dynamics, and force measurement technologies
  • Electromyography - EMG signal acquisition, processing, normalization, and interpretation for muscle function analysis
  • Computational Simulation - Musculoskeletal modeling, forward and inverse simulations, and predictive analysis
  • Gait and Locomotion Analysis - Applied methods for clinical and research assessment of movement
  • Measurement Technologies - Force plates, motion capture systems, EMG instrumentation, and data acquisition
  • 100+ integrated QR-code videos demonstrating techniques, procedures, and simulation workflows
  • Clinical images and illustrations throughout every section for visual reinforcement

Designed for physical therapy and rehabilitation students, kinesiology and exercise science students, biomedical engineering students, sports medicine professionals, orthopedic clinicians, and researchers seeking a current, evidence-based biomechanics reference.
