- Synopsis:
-
The course is intended for all students who need to supplement their knowledge and have a general knowledge about biomechanics and its application in specific practical problems. The content is chosen to be sufficient to understand athe issues in related subjects, especially the subject of Mechanics and Robotics in Medicine. If the student does not choose the subject and has never had the opportunity to complete these basic knowledge, they will be exposed to the risk of misunderstanding the subsequent issues in related subjects, in which this is not taken into account the basic knowledge.
- Requirements:
-
Exercises are a compulsory part of the teaching. A maximum of 3 excused absences per semester are allowed. The student will receive credit based on the submitted papers. Papers will be assigned and turned in in the MS TEAMS group. The assignment due date is the day of class and the due date is no later than one week after the assignment. Papers submitted after the deadline will not be counted. The number of papers is 10. The number of points per paper is 10. A minimum of 50 points is required for credit. Completion of the exam based on points from the exercises. If a student scores 80 or more on the practicum, he/she does not have to take the exam and may request a grade (96-100 b = A, 92-95 b = B, 88-91 b = C, 84-91 b = D, 80-83 b = E).
Oral part:
For the oral part, the student will prepare 5 topics in biomechanics in advance. Topics should include the student's own perspective on biomechanical problems. The topics should be based on lectures and should not be a simple repetition of lectures or seminars or a restatement of commonly known concepts. I recommend choosing your own topics from sports, rehabilitation, movement, etc. Students will submit topics for approval by completing a web form before the end of the semester. If the topic is not original enough or is repeated by a large number of students, it will be rejected and the student must choose a new topic. Before the exam, the student will prepare a ppt or pdf presentation for each of his/her topics and upload it to the common repository (MS TEAMS, exam directory) under his/her name and presentation number, e.g. Novák_Jan_1.ppt . The content of the presentation must address the biomechanical analysis of the problem with a gentle introduction, i.e. the presentation should not contain 10 pages of anatomy. A student who does not have an approved topic for the exam, cannot participate in the exam.
