Biomechanics (English spelling)
It is also called kinesiology or sports mechanics. It is a field of physical education science. The Japanese Society of Physical Education has a specialized research subcommittee. Originally developed for orthopedic surgery, it aimed to study the mechanics of the human body's bones and muscles, but today, research is being conducted on a broader range of subjects such as sports and labor, incorporating physiological and psychological perspectives. It is used to improve sports records, analyze techniques, rehabilitation, and ergonomics. It has replaced the former term kinesiology.
