Performance specification for lower limb orthotic devices.

TL;DR: It is possible to estimate the loads transmitted by an orthosis using established gait analysis procedures without the need for load measurement transducers and there is now a need to collect a larger representative dataset and to perform validation studies with transducers.

Effectiveness of an automatic tracking software in underwater motion analysis.

TL;DR: The newly developed feature-tracking algorithm has shown a good automatic tracking effectiveness in underwater motion analysis with significantly smaller percentage of required manual interventions when compared to a commercial software.

Effects of unilateral backpack carriage on biomechanics of gait in adolescents: a kinematic analysis

TL;DR: The biomechanical alterations seen in asymmetrical backpack carriage may put some extra load on the lumbar vertebral joints and altered frontal knee biomechanics contribute to low back pain and pathologies in the knee joint.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human recognition based on kinematics and kinetics of gait

TL;DR: Experimental results showed that gait is a reliable feature for individual identification since a high recognition rate can be achieved by choosing appropriate joints or dynamic parameters in some dimensions of a gait.

Single leg hop for distance symmetry masks lower limb biomechanics: time to discuss hop distance as decision criterion for return to sport after ACL reconstruction?

TL;DR: In this paper, lower limb status of athletes after ACL reconstruction was evaluated during the propulsion and landing phases of a single leg hop for distance (SLHD) task after they had been cleared to return to sport.

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.
