Validation of hip joint center localization methods during gait analysis using 3D EOS imaging in typically developing and cerebral palsy children

TL;DR: Predictive and functional techniques for HJC localization in typically developing and cerebral palsy children, using EOS as an image based reference, showed Harrington method was shown to be the most accurate in the prediction of HJC and quasi-equivalent to the Bell method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immediate effect of percutaneous intramuscular stimulation during gait in children with cerebral palsy: a feasibility study.

TL;DR: The feasibility of percutaneous intramuscular functional electrical stimulation (P-FES) in children with cerebral palsy (CP) for immediate improvement of ankle kinematics during gait has not previously been reported as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Temporospatial and Kinematic Characteristics of Typical Tai Chi Movements: Repulse Monkey and Wave-hand in Cloud

TL;DR: The results showed that stride width was larger for WHIC compared with walking; double-support time was longer for RM while both Tai Chi movements spent less time in single-support; and the knees remained flexed while RM had notably larger abduction and adduction of the knee joint.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of muscle forces in gait using a simulation of the electromyographic activity and numerical optimization.

TL;DR: The aim was to develop a generic musculoskeletal model that could be able to be applied in the clinical setting and shows a similar performance to another model available in the OpenSim software.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three dimensional motion analysis of within and between day repeatability of tibial rotation during pivoting.

TL;DR: It was concluded that tibial rotation can be measured reliably during pivoting, and typical error values were less than the usual group differences in rotational excursion reported in the literature.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
