The Effects of Walking Speed on Multisegment Foot Kinematics in Adults
TL;DR: Foot and ankle kinematics were collected on 24 adults walking at 5 speeds, and significant differences were seen at the ankle using a single rigid body foot model, as well as at the hindfoot and forefoot using a multisegment foot model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between leg extensor muscle strength and knee joint loading during gait before and after total knee arthroplasty.
TL;DR: The correlation analysis indicates that due to weak leg extensor muscles, an excessive load is applied to knee joint during mid stance of gait in patients, whereas in healthy subjects stronger knee-surrounding muscles provide stronger knee joint loading during gait.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selected static foot assessments do not predict medial longitudinal arch motion during running
TL;DR: The findings of this work question the validity of the selected static foot classification measures when looking to characterise the foot during running, and indicates that alternative means of assessing the foot to inform footwear selection are required.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landing Kinematics and Isometric Hip Strength of Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability.
TL;DR: Altered landing mechanics displayed by the CAI group may promote mechanisms of LAS, but they are not associated with isometric hip strength, and hip strength deficits may negatively impact other functional tasks, and they should still be considered during rehabilitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of gluteus medius activity reflects the potential of the muscle to meet the mechanical demands during perturbed walking
Maarten Afschrift,Lorenzo Pitto,Wouter Aerts,Robert William Martin Van Deursen,Ilse Jonkers,Friedl De Groote +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the potential of GM to adjust lateral foot placement and prevent collisions during swing varies during the gait cycle and proposes a novel method to distinguish between the effect of perturbation force and reactive muscle activity on gait stability.

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.
