01/13/15 | Some of the MANY Ways to See/Work with MovementClassical/Neutonian Mechanics1. Kinematics -"geometry of motion", study of trajectories, velocity and acceleration.It requires attaching rigid reference frames to each moving part and looks at their translation and rotation relative to each other. 2. Dynamics/Kinetics - study of forces affecting motion (gravity, friction, torque, etc) 3. Statics - study of systems at rest or moving with constant velocity Gears, Levers, Joints and Links...(kinematics for mechanical design) Types of Mechanical Motion and Mechanisms Biomechanics (principles of mechanics applied to human, animal, plant locomotion, motion of organs, motion of gases and fluids inside and outside a living body and its tissues, stresses affecting the body):Daniel Wolpert on the real reason for brainsRobert Full on Animal Movement - research at PolyPedal Lab, UC Berkley
