摘要: Biomechanics is a subject that draws on knowledge from many disciplines. One of its great practitioners in the last century was Irish anatomist M.A. MacConaill. In this paper, we review some MacConaill’s fundamental contributions to biomechanics, namely: hydrodynamic theory synovial joint lubrication, kinematics motion and conjunct rotations; spurt shunt muscles. The aim revisit these topics light current research, draw conclusions about import his research context recent developments field. paper concludes with discussion science Ireland, development field biomechanics since time, other matters.
