Biomechanics and Gait Analysis

Biomechanics and Gait Analysis presents a comprehensive book on biomechanics that
focuses on gait analysis. It is written primarily for biomedical engineering students,
professionals and biomechanists with a strong emphasis on medical devices and
assistive technology, but is also of interest to clinicians and physiologists. It allows
novice readers to acquire the basics of gait analysis, while also helping expert readers
update their knowledge. The book covers the most up-to-date acquisition and
computational methods and advances in the field. Key topics include muscle mechanics
and modeling, motor control and coordination, and measurements and assessments.
This is the go to resource for an understanding of fundamental concepts and how to
collect, analyze and interpret data for research, industry, clinical and sport.
