When isometric external resistance is applied during a joint action, the dynamometer does not move and angular velocity is zero.

It can be simply measured using dynamometry by taking multiple measurements in the same dynamometer of the same joint angle movement, at different angular velocities.

Similarly, peak moment ratios between muscle groups can be performed by setting the dynamometer to perform concentric isokinetic muscle actions in both directions, rather than concentric in one direction and eccentric in the other.

When different studies use the same angular velocity for measurement, these can be compared to one another, so long as differences between the populations tested are acknowledged, and so long as the dynamometer used is the same in both cases, as differences have been observed between brands (Francis & Hoobler, 1987; Thompson et al. 1989; Gross et al. 1991).
