Sagittal plane position of the functional joint centre of prosthetic foot/ankle mechanisms
David Rusaw,Nerrolyn Ramstrand +1 more
TL;DR: The repeatability of the method was found to be adequate, with 95% CI of the difference (test-retest) of the prosthetic feet similar to that for the intact ankle and within clinically accepted levels of variability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myoelectric Control for Adaptable Biomechanical Energy Harvesting
TL;DR: A myoelectric controller that automatically adapts energy harvesting from the motion of leg joints to match the power available in different walking conditions, and accurately identified when the knee generated negative mechanical power, and automatically adjusted the magnitude of electrical power generation.

The influence of dive direction on the movement characteristics for elite football goalkeepers.
TL;DR: Joint movements in the transverse plane at or before the initiation event for the dive for the pelvis and thorax are the causation for subsequent asymmetries, indicating that there is an advantage in having prior knowledge of limb preference in an opposing goalkeeper.

Design and Validation of an E-Textile-Based Wearable Sock for Remote Gait and Postural Assessment
Federica Amitrano,Armando Coccia,Carlo Ricciardi,Leandro Donisi,Giuseppe Cesarelli,Edda Maria Capodaglio,Giovanni D'Addio +6 more
TL;DR: The “wearability” of the system and its comfortable use make it suitable to be used in domestic environment for the continuous remote health monitoring of de-hospitalized patients but also in the ergonomic assessment of health workers, thanks to its low invasiveness.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
Journal Article
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.
