Is angular momentum in the horizontal plane during gait a controlled variable
TL;DR: It is concluded that if angular momentum is controlled (which only seems to be the case for conditions when weights are added), it is not strictly controlled in all gait conditions (as it may increase by walking faster/with larger steps).

Classification of autism children gait patterns using Neural Network and Support Vector Machine
TL;DR: Evaluating the performance of Neural Network (NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) in classifying the gait patterns between autism and normal children showed that fusion of temporal spatial and kinematic contributed the highest accuracy rate for NN classifier specifically 95% whilst SVM with polynomial as kernel, 95% accuracy rate is contributed by fusion of all gait parameters as inputs to the classifier.

TL;DR: Patients with a THR may be at higher risk for abnormal joint loading and thus for the development of OA in other joints of the lower extremities and the present prospective longitudinal study tested whether 2 years after surgery a THR would restore dynamic loading of the knee and hip joints in the frontal plane to normal.

Kinematic relationship between rotation of lumbar spine and hip joints during golf swing in professional golfers
TL;DR: The rotation of hips was observed to be more efficient in producing the overall rotation during the downswing when compared to the backswing, and this results provide quantitative information to better understand the lumbar spine and hip joint kinematic characteristics of professional golfers.

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.
