Objectives

  • To impart knowledge on the various insights of pediatric biomechanics, clinical biomechanics, musculoskeletal biomechanics, gait and posture and sports biomechanics.
  • To create awareness among researchers and faculty members to engage in the development of product based experimentation on biomechanics.
  • To explore the best ways to translate biomechanics research to enterprise and clinical stakeholders
  • Global exposure through experts from Drexel University, USA and NTU, Singapore
  • The participants should gain an understanding of the mechanical and anatomical principles that govern human motion and develop the ability to link the structure of the human body with its function from a mechanical perspective. At the completion of this course it is desired that each delegate be able to: 1) describe motion with precise, well-defined mechanical and anatomical terminology; 2) understand and quantify linear and angular characteristics of motion; 3) understand the quantitative relationships between angular and linear motion characteristics of a rotating body; and 4) understand and quantify the cause and effect relationship between force and linear and angular motion.
  • Apply knowledge of the underlying principles and concepts of Exercise and Sport Science. Including the core areas of: Human Physiology, Anatomy, Functional Anatomy, Exercise Physiology, Biomechanics, Motor Learning and Control, Exercise Metabolism and Nutrition, and Psychology .
