Biomechanics: A Primer

Abstract

Biomechanics is the application of mechanical engineering principles to the biological systems. It is the study of human movement and interaction with the environment. It applies mechanical principles to the human body in order to understand the mechanical influences on bone and joint. A basic understanding of these principles is beneficial for medical professionals. This paper provides a brief introduction to biomechanics.
