Scientific inquiry addressed by biomechanists
Biomechanics is considered a subdiscipline within kinesiology; the study of human movement.
Biomechanics, like all of the subdisciplines within kinesiology, has goals. The specific goals within biomechanics include performance improvement, technique improvement, equipment improvement, training improvement, injury prevention, and rehabilitation. Below are some links to specific research topics biomechanists have examined. Please note these two studies provide only a small glimpse of the immense scope of the field. I encourage you to explore the field by reading chapter 1 and reviewing articles from various biomechanics journals listed on the syllabus.
