  In this paper, during one-parameter closed planar homothetic direct motions, the formula of kinetic energy is expressed. Then we show the relation between the formula of kinetic energy and the Steiner formula. We investigate some properties of closed planar homothetic motions. These motions appear between two coordinate systems, fixed and moving (direct motion). Finally, we show how the results can be applied to experimentally measured motions. As an example, we consider a motion of winch in the sagittal direction. We obtain the formula of kinetic energy for the motion of winch during one-parameter closed planar homothetic direct motions.

Introduction</title><p>Jacob Steiner established some properties of the area of a path of a point for a geometrical object rolling on a line and making a complete turn. In planar kinematics, the Steiner formula describes the dependence of the area of a curve, determined by a closed motion of one point, on the position of this point [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref1">1</xref>] . The Steiner area formula and the Holditch theorem during one-parameter closed planar homothetic motions were expressed by A. Tutar and N. Kuruoglu [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref2">2</xref>] . During one-parameter closed planar homothetic motions, the expression of the Steiner formula was calculated relative to fixed coordinate system. The points of the fixed plane which enclose the same area lie on a circle or a line in the fixed coordinate system. If it is a circle, then the center of this circle is called the Steiner point (h = 1) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref3">3</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref4">4</xref>] .</p><p>Dathe H. and Gezzi R. expressed the formula of kinetic energy for the closed planar kinematics [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref5">5</xref>] . In our previous paper [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref6">6</xref>] , we introduced a case distinction between movements with or without a vanishing winding number, which was important for practical purposes in mechanics. In this paper, we calculate the formula of kinetic energy for closed planar homothetic direct motions. In particular, we show the relation between the formula of kinetic energy and the Steiner formula.</p><p>As an example, Dathe H. and Gezzi R. have chosen the sagittal part of the movement of the human leg during walking for planar kinematics [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.56692-ref7">7</xref>] . Since our intention is not simply to recapitulate some classical results, we consider their practical application. We wish to use them in order to characterize experimental data such as the ones related to the motion of winch. For elaboration, we consider the sagittal motion of a winch which is described by a double hinge being fixed and moving as an example. We obtain the formula of kinetic energy for the motion of winch.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.
