Content
The course content will be divided into three parts:
- Anthropometry: concepts of the rigid body, the centre of gravity and moment of inertia
- Kinetic analysis: calculation of forces and moments of force in a static situation
- Dynamic situations and concepts of energy, work and power
The student will have to use the basics of biomechanics in an integrated way in the fields of motor science: analysis of joint movements; segmental modelling of the body; inertia; balance and posture; muscular leverage; energy transformation during a movement

Teaching methods
The course aims to give students mathematical tools for modelling and understanding the movement of the human body.
Theory (lecture) + practical sessions

Evaluation methods
The written exam includes questions on exercises and theory.
The assessment is conducted using a multiple-choice exam (MCQ). For each question, 5 answer choices will be provided, along with a 6th choice "I don't know the answer." Among the 5 choices, only 1 correct answer is expected per question. No points are awarded for unanswered or incorrect responses. A quarter of the points will be awarded if the student selects the "I don't know the answer" option.
The minimum mastery threshold (c) for learning outcomes (corresponding to a score of 10/20) is determined by the following formula: c = ((n+1)/2n) x 100, where n represents the number of choices per question. In this case, the "minimum passing threshold" (c) is set at 60%.
