Proffil

Enillodd John Challis radd PhD mewn Biomecaneg ym 1991 o Brifysgol Loughborough. Mae bellach yn Athro Cinesioleg a Chyfarwyddwr y Rhaglen i Raddedigion yn Adran Ginesioleg Prifysgol Penn State, UDA.

Ymchwil

Prif Feysydd o Ddiddordeb

Mesur a modelu paramedrau cymhleth sy’n gysylltiedig â model dynameg uniongyrchol o’r system gyhyrysgerbydol ddynol, gyda’r bwriad o edrych ar swyddogaeth, pwrpas a chyd-drefniant cyhyrau  yn y corff byw. 

Ymchwilio i effeithiau dynol, gyda phwyslais ar fesur effaith y m às "siglog" ar lwyth y cymalau.

Datblygu protocolau mesur diwygiedig (ffotogrametreg tri dimensiwn, penderfynu ar gyfeiriadedd a safle segment, gwahaniaethiad a llyfnhau data).

Ymchwilio i weithdrefnau ar gyfer diffinio paramedrau inertiol rhannau o’r corff.
