"Winter's Biomechanics and Motor Control of Human Movement, Fifth Edition provides a long-awaited update to a classic text in the field. The way in which biomechanical data is collected and managed has changed dramatically in the last decade. With this in mind, the Fifth Edition maintains the seminal approach to the topic pioneered by David Winter, but brings the content up-to-date to align with the technological developments of the past decade and to address new clinical implementations of biomechanical assessments. The book introduces biomechanics as an interdisciplinary field, then goes on to cover topics like biomechanic signal processing, anthropometry, kinematics and kinetics (both traditional and 3D variables), muscle mechanics, kinesiological electromyography, forward simulations and muscle-actuated simulations, static and dynamic balance, and the role of the central nervous system in biomechanics. Updated material provides coverage of topic such as: movement sequencing and the kinetic chain concept; electromagnetic systems, inertial sensors, and clinical measures of kinematics; the advantages and disadvantages of different types of forceplates; instrumental treadmills, handrails, and walking boots; markerset design; event detection for gait, as well as for athletic motions like jumping, landing, and pitching; joint stiffness; and CNS roles in biomechanics. New case studies highlight biomechanic applications for cerebral palsy, patellar femoral pain syndrome, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction, and balance disorders. The book also provides guidance on setting up a motion lab and includes access to online Excel spreadsheets with kinematic and kinetic marker data. Winter's Biomechanics and Motor Control of Human Movement, Fifth Edition provides must-have content for both students studying biomechanics for the first time and for professionals who have relied upon the trailblazing work of David Winter throughout their careers"--
