Journal ArticleDOI

Position and orientation in space of bones during movement: anatomical frame definition and determination.

TL;DR: This paper deals with methodological problems related to the reconstruction of the position and orientation of the human pelvis and the lower limb bones in space during the execution of locomotion and physical exercises using a stereophotogrammetric system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Position and orientation in space of bones during movement: experimental artefacts.

TL;DR: The experimental problems related to the reconstruction of the position and orientation of the lower limb bones in space during the execution of locomotion and physical exercises and inaccuracies associated with the relative movement between markers and underlying bone are analysed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pelvis and lower limb anatomical landmark calibration precision and its propagation to bone geometry and joint angles.

TL;DR: Bone geometry parameters estimated using the same data showed that the relevant precision does not allow for reliable bone geometry description, and these findings assist the human movement analyst's consciousness of the possible limitations involved in 3D movement analysis using stereophotogrammetry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of stride length in level walking using an inertial measurement unit attached to the foot: A validation of the zero velocity assumption during stance

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the velocity of the sensor can be set to zero sometimes during stance is acceptable only if the sensor is attached to the foot in estimating the stride length, which showed that the minimum velocity of selected points on the foot and shank increased as gait speed increased.
Journal ArticleDOI

Muscle fatigue and fatigue-related biomechanical changes during a cyclic lifting task.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate correlation between localized muscle fatigue and biomechanical adaptations that occur during a cyclic lifting task that might be useful in improving education, lifting ergonomy, and back school programs.
