Concept of Impetus — Interactive Biomechanics & Motion Analysis

Giving and Receiving Impetus, Movement Patterns, Equilibrium and Clinical Application

The three categories of giving impetus and their joint actions, the overhead, underhand and sidearm movement patterns, all fourteen principles of giving impetus and all six principles of receiving impetus, with interactive constructions for inertia and threshold, resultant force, point of application, ground counterforce, the six striking factors, gradual energy loss, surface area and pressure, and base of support with the centre of gravity — alongside a live search, glossary and faculty depth mode.

Based on Kinesiology: Scientific Basis of Human Motion (Wells & Luttgens). Interactive values are illustrative relative indices used to demonstrate the direction of the relationships described in the source; they are not measured clinical, biomechanical or physical values.
