Dr Marianne J.R. Gittoes

Pwrpas cyffredinol fy ymchwil yw ehangu gwybodaeth am y gofynion mecanyddol ar ran isaf y coesau a achosir mewn chwaraeon ac effeithiau ymarfer corff deinamig a allai fod yn niweidiol gan ddefnyddio dulliau biomecanyddol datblygedig. Roedd fy ymchwil gynnar yn canolbwyntio ar ddatblygu a chymhwyso modelau cyfrifiadurol arloesol o'r corff dynol. Yn fwy diweddar, defnyddiwyd y ddealltwriaeth ddamcaniaethol o fy ymchwil modelu efelychiad i fynd i'r afael â safbwyntiau cymhwysol mewn gymnasteg a rhedeg, ac i archwilio mecanweithiau straen ar gyfer darogan anafiadau.
