The course is only offered to the students of the study fields the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
The aim of the subject is: to clarify the mechanical basis of selected physical activities, especially martial arts and combat sports; to approach the issue of forensic biomechanics; explain how the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system limit the tolerance to the extreme mechanical load of the body
Learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students should be able: to explain the fundamental mechanics laws and principles of martial arts and combat sports, to apply the bases of this synergetic discipline to human motion system in terms of extreme mechanical load; to orient in the basic methods used by forensic biomechanics
Syllabus
  • Definition of biomechanics, importace, history.
  • Physical base of biomechanics of martial arts:
  • Kinematics - distance, velocity, acceleration, straight motion, accelerated motion, cirgular motion, motions in field of gravity of Earth, describing motion with graphs.
  • Dynamics: force, Newton's Laws, effects of force, deformations, momentum and its conservation, impulse, centripetal force, inertial force.
  • Mechanics of rigid body: moment of force, principle of moments, centre of gravity, equilibrium positions, statics, frictional force, air resistance force, inclined plane, lever systems.
  • Mechanical energy, work, power, conservation of energy.
  • Forensic biomechanics.
  • Biological base of biomechanics of martial arts: mechanics load and deformation of tissues.
