Relationship between flat foot condition and gait pattern alterations in children with Down syndrome.

TL;DR: Children with flat foot displayed a less functional gait pattern in terms of ankle kinetics than children without flat foot, suggesting that the presence of flat foot may lead to a weaker efficient walking.

Experimental evaluation of indoor magnetic distortion effects on gait analysis performed with wearable inertial sensors

TL;DR: The effects of magnetic field distortion were limited to the transverse plane of each joint and to the frontal plane of the ankle, and Sagittal plane values showed sufficient repeatability moving from outdoors to indoors.

An optimal control approach to reconstruct human gait dynamics from kinematic data

TL;DR: This paper uses articulated rigid multibody models and optimal control methods to recover dynamic gait data solely from kinematic data and applies this method on 15 emotional human walking motions to compare joint angle and torque patterns of different emotions.

Landing Kinematics and Kinetics at the Knee During Different Landing Tasks

TL;DR: No single task was best for assessing a wide range of biomechanical variables related to anterior cruciate ligament injuries; depending on the goals of the study, using multiple assessment tasks should be considered.

Measurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking

TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.

Principles of dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the Lagrange Equations are used to model the dynamics of a rigid body and a system of parts of a particle system with respect to the velocity of a single particle.

Justification of triaxial goniometer for the measurement of joint rotation.

TL;DR: Considering all factors in joint functional evaluation, the modified triaxial goniometer is a useful and effective method to provide simple real time three-dimensional angular motion measurements.

The anthropometry of the manual work space for the seated subject

TL;DR: This paper is an exploration of the space-geometry of hand motions as they relate to young men in the seated posture primarily in functional anthropometry, but the information derived should have practical use in improving the design of work areas.

Walking patterns of men with parkinsonism.

TL;DR: Interrupted-light photography was used to record the simultaneous displacement patterns of multiple body segments of 44 patients with parkinsonism during free-speed and fast walking to quantitatively characterize their gait peculiarities.
