The end of 3D kinematics

We did it! We made our way through arguably the most challenging conceptual portion of the class…. take a 5 minute vacation, have a highly caffeinated beverage and smile to a job well done. To celebrate I have posted on the website the FINAL version of the 3D kinematic slides (no more changes, I promise), plus the figures & tables from the 3D readings that I used in class this week.  A reminder that Assignment 3 is due next Thursday in class, and that we have no class on Tuesday when the university is following a Monday schedule.

Each ending is a new beginning, so next Thursday we will start the section on Anthropometry. Readings to get you ready are Chapter 3 (Body Segment Parameters) in the Robertson et al textbook, and the Zatsiorsky & Seluyanov paper that is posted on the website. Next week we will post some notes and slides too.

Enjoy the great weather, and let’s hope it lasts through the Canadian Thanksgiving / American Columbus Day weekend.

Cheers…..
