Kinematics
What is the difference between linear and angular motion
Linear- all parts of a rigid body move parallel and in the same direction
Angular- all parts move around some pivot point
Osteokinematics describe
Motion of one relative to 3 cardinal planes
Describe the 3 cardinal planes
Sagittal divides into R & L
Frontal divides anterior and posterior
Horizontal divides into upper and lower
Movement in the sagittal plane moves around what axis
M/L
Movement in frontal plane moves around what axis
Anterior/Posterior
Movement in transverse plane moves around what axis
Vertical
How many degrees of freedom does the hip have and why?
3 because it is a triaxial joint
How many degrees of freedom does the knee have and why?
2, it’s a biaxial joint (flex/ext and tibial rotation)
How many degrees of freedom do the interphalangeal joints of fingers have and why?
1, it’s a uniaxial joint (flex/ext)
Describing the kinetic chain of a movement describes what concept of Kinematics?
Osteokinematics
A back squat is an example of a closed or open kinetic chain? Why?
Closed
Distal segment is fixed, proximal is moving
Bicep curl is an example of a closed or open kinetic chain? Why?
Open
Distal segment is moving proximal segment is fixed
Describing the motion occurring between joint surfaces is describing the …..
Arthrokinematics
Benefits of a convex-concave relationship include…
Improve joint congruency
Increases surface area for dissipating contact forces
Helps guide motion between bones
