This is an inter-disciplinary course introducing biomechanics and neuro-motor behaviour. It describes how humans control the position and movement of their bodies in 3-dimensional space given the physical realities of gravity, inertia, contact-reaction, and friction. This includes systems for description, measurement and development of healthy posture, movements, flexibility, and stability, and the production of force by muscles. It uses squatting (stance) and walking (gait) as examples of basic movements with which to explore these concepts. The central role of the nervous system in sensation, perception, and the control of motor behaviour, along with introductory principles of motor learning and motor development are also considered. This course will be integrated with KPE182H1.
