West, Lori A. GriffinHoboken, N.J. Wiley-Lissc20041 online resource (x, 456 p. )ill. ;Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-471-34619-5 Includes bibliographical references (p. 433-438) and index.You can never step in the same river twice, goes the old adage of philosophy. An observation on the transitory nature of fluids in motion, this saying also describes the endless variations researchers face when studying human movement. Understanding these biodynamics why the wirewalker doesnt fall requires a grasp of the constant fluctuations and fine tunings which maintain balance in the complex, fluid system of human locomotion. Taking a comprehensive approach to the phenomenon of locomotion, Biodynamics: Why the Wirewalker Doesnt Fall integrates physical laws and principles with concepts of fractals, chaos, and randomness.; In so doing, it formulates a description of both the large-scale, smooth aspects of locomotion and the more minute, randomized mechanisms of this physiological process. Ideal for beginners in this subject, Biodynamics provides an elegant explanation without assuming the readers understanding of complex physical principles or mathematical equations.BiophysicsDynamicsBiomechanicsBiomechanical PhenomenaBiophysicsPhysicsBiological Science DisciplinesBiophysicsNatural Science DisciplinesOccupationsBiologyHILCCBiophysicsHILCCHealth & Biological SciencesHILCCComputer network resources.localBiophysics.Dynamics.Biomechanics.Biomechanical Phenomena.Biophysics.Physics.Biological Science Disciplines.Biophysics.Natural Science Disciplines.OccupationsBiologyBiophysicsHealth & Biological Sciences571.4West Bruce J48667Griffin Lori1841393DLCDLCDLCBOOK9911019249803321Biodynamics4421114UNINAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
