1
New cards

Linear Motion (Translation)

all points of an object or system move at the same linear velocity

2
New cards

Rotation

all points of an object or system move at the same angular velocity about a fixed axis

3
New cards

General motion

a combination of translation and rotation. The axis of rotation is in motion
-most human movement consists of this motion

4
New cards

Kinematic chains

motion at multiple joints allows:

-greater degrees of freedom in movement

-greater velocity of distal endpoint

disadvantage: more complex control 

5
New cards

Throwing Motion

-sequential segment acceleration

-generate high velocity

ex: a baseball pitch

6
New cards

Pushing Motion

-simultaneous segment acceleration

-higher accuracy possible

ex: darts
