The field is traditionally divided into two primary sub-disciplines that describe motion and the causes behind it:
: Examines the forces—such as muscle force, gravity, and friction—that produce or result from motion. Biomechanics | Science | Research Starters - EBSCO Basic Biomechanics
Biomechanics is the multidisciplinary study of the mechanical principles that govern biological systems, specifically the movement and structure of living organisms. It integrates concepts from physics, anatomy, and physiology to understand how internal and external forces affect human motion.
