This is a serious national problem that has spurred considerable debate about the causal links between such disorders and risk factors in the workplace.
This book presents a preliminary assessment of what is known about the relationship between musculoskeletal disorders and what may cause them. It includes papers and a workshop summary of findings from orthopedic surgery, public health, occupational medicine, epidemiology, risk analysis, ergonomics, and human factors. Topics covered include the biological responses of tissues to stress, the biomechanics of work stressors, the epidemiology of physical work factors, and the contributions of individual, recreational, and social factors to such disorders.
The book also considers the relative success of various workplace interventions for prevention and rehabilitation. Occupational Biomechanics Author : Don B. I recommend this book to anyone, regardless of discipline, who is interested in understanding the many biomechanical factors which must be considered when trying to effectthe prevention and reduction of musculoskeletal injuries in the workplace.
This latest edition of the popular and widely adopted Occupational Biomechanics provides the foundations and tools to assemble and evaluate biomechanical processes as they apply to today's changing industries, with emphasis on improving overall work efficiency and preventing work-related injuries.
The book expertly weaves engineering and medical information from diverse sources and provides a coherent treatment of the biomechanical principles underlying the well-designed and ergonomically sound workplace. Editor Dr. Mark A. Covers general topics such as evaluation of the injured runner, on-the-field and in-office assessment, and sports psychology for the runner.
Includes biomechanics and rehabilitation chapters, including running gait assessment, choosing a running shoe, and deep water running for prevention and rehabilitation of running injuries. Provides expert guidance on bone stress injuries and bone health, osteoarthritis and running, knee injuries in runners, and other musculoskeletal injuries.
Features a section on specific populations such as the novice runner, the youth runner, the peripartum runner, and the ultramarathoner.
More comprehensive than a handbook, yet more clinically-focused than a desk reference, this volume is a one-stop guide for clinicians who deal with musculoskeletal disorders and injuries in the practice setting. The book is organized by anatomic region, from neck to toe, and written in outline format. The book covers the most up-to-date acquisition and computational methods and advances in the field. Key topics include muscle mechanics and modeling, motor control and coordination, and measurements and assessments.
This is the go to resource for an understanding of fundamental concepts and how to collect, analyze and interpret data for research, industry, clinical and sport. Details the fundamental issues leading to the biomechanical analyses of gait and posture Covers the theoretical basis and practical aspects associated with gait analysis Presents methods and tools used in the field, including electromyography, signal processing and spectral analysis, amongst others.
The seventh edition of Basic Biomechanics has been significantly updated from the previous edition. The approach taken remains an integrated balance of qualitative and quantitative examples, applications, and problems designed to illustrate the principles discussed. This edition also retains the important sensitivity to the fact that some beginning students of biomechanics possess weak backgrounds in mathematics.
For this reason, it includes numerous sample problems and applications, along with practical advice on approaching quantitative problems. With balanced, integrated coverage of applied anatomy, mechanical principles, and relevant sport and daily living applications, this text introduces you to the basics of biomechanics. Biomechanics uses physics and engineering concepts to describe the motion undergone by the various body segments and forces acting on these body parts during normal activities.
The interrelationship of force and motion is important and must be understood if rational treatment programs are to be applied to musculoskeletal disorders. Deleterious effects may be produced if the forces acting on the areas with disorders rise to high levels during exercise or other activities of daily living.
The purpose of this text is to acquaint the readers with the force-motion relationship within the musculoskeletal system and the various techniques used to understand these relationships.
The fourth edition of Basic Biomechanics of the Musculoskeletal System is intended for use as a textbook either in conjunction with an introductory biomechanics course or for independent study. The fourth edition has been updated to reflect changes in knowledge, but it is still a book that is designed for use by students who are interested in and want to learn about biomechanics. It is primarily written for students who do not have an engineering background but who want to understand the most basic concepts in biomechanics and physics and how these apply to the human body.
Input from students has greatly improved this edition. We have used the book for 20 years in the Program of Ergonomics and Biomechanics at New York University, and it is the students and residents who have suggested the changes and who have continuously showed an interest in developing and improving this book.
