Mechanics
Statics deal with nonmoving parts (equilibrium).
Dynamics deal with moving systems
Kinematics
Describes motion and includes consideration of time, displacement, velocity, acceleration and mass.
Kinetics
Describes forces that cause motion of a body
Mechanics-study of forces and motions for the body.
Basic Biomechanics
• Biomechanics-apply mechanics to the structure and function of the human body.
Is the scientific study of the mechanics of biological systems.
Engineering(Mechanics)
Anatomy Physiology
Biomechanics
Applications Biomechanics
- Improved the performance ( Human movement)- Preventing or treating injury- Design prosthesis & orthosis or artificial limb
Biomechanics
• Biomechanics is be used to:
–To understand the biomechanical analysis (motion) for normal and patient human.
–To understand function of vascular system in order to analysis the fluid biomechanics (blood flow).
–To analysis the biomechanics of : soft tissue (muscle) hart tissue (bones).
–To model these systems to aid in the design of prosthetic devices (e.g. artificial artery or artificial limb)
Principles associated to biomechanical analysis
• Density• Momentum• Velocity• Time• Acceleration• Deceleration• Mass• Inertia• Dimensions• Viscosity
• Balance and stability
• Centre of gravity
• Elasticity
• Forces (action & reaction)
• pressure
• power
• Bending moment
• Torque moment
• Friction
• Wear

General Motion
Most movements arecombination of both
• Newton’s First Law–Law of inertia
• Newton’s Second Law–Law of Acceleration
• Newton’s Third Law–Law of Action and
Reaction
Linear motion
Angular motion
LoadsThe external forces that act on the body impose loads that affect the internal structures of the body.
First class lever
There are 3 classes of levers.
Second class lever Third class lever
Humans moves through a system of levers
Second Class Levers
The movement of the foot when walking.(the calf muscle provides the effort and
the ball of the foot is the pivot)
Levers
• The mechanical advantage of levers may be determined using the following equations:
Mechanical advantage =Resistance
Forceor
Mechanical advantage =Length of force arm
Length of resistance arm
Bitting Force
Dog bite = 1,410 N 2.5
Lion bite down with 5,533 N 10
Boxer can punch with 10,528 N 18
• Human female bite = 360 N• Human male bite = 564 N

Bone Biomechanics (Hard tissue)
• Bone is anisotropic material (An anisotropic material is a material which does not behave the same way in all directions.)
• Bones are:
strongest in compression.weakest in shear.
• Ultimate Stress at Failure Cortical Bone Compression < 212 N/m2
Tension < 146 N/m2
Shear < 82 N/m2
Mechanical Properties of Bone
return to original shape after fracture
Ductile or Brittle ( is a solid material's ability to deform under tensile stress)
Depends on age and rate at which it is loaded
- Younger bone is more ductile- Bone is more brittle at high speeds
Brittle hard but liable to break easily.
Bending
Type of Loading
TorsionAxial LoadingCompressionTension
Fracture Mechanics
•Bending load:– Compression strength greater
than tensile strength– Fails in tension
Plate Fixation• Functions of the plate Compression Neutralization Buttress
Biomechanics of Internal Fixation
• Moving surfaces of the knee are metal against plastic
