Rectus femoris transfer—Gracilis versus Sartorius
TL;DR: Preoperatively and post-operatively there were significant improvements in stride length, dynamic knee range of motion (ROM), knee angle at initial contact, and maximum knee extension in stance in both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower extremity work is associated with club head velocity during the golf swing in experienced golfers.
TL;DR: In this paper, the lower extremities of a driver were estimated during the downswing phase of a full swing with a driver using a passive optical motion capture system and 2 force plates for adult males across a range of age and self-reported skill levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Uncertainty in Selected Musculoskeletal Model Parameters on Muscle Forces Estimated in Inverse Dynamics-Based Static Optimization and Hybrid Approach
TL;DR: Investigating the robustness of dynamic simulation results in the presence of uncertainties resulting from application of a scaled-generic musculoskeletal model instead of a subject-specific model found that estimated muscle forces are very sensitive to model parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of taping on foot kinematics in persons with chronic ankle instability.
TL;DR: This study revealed significant differences in rigid foot and multi-segmental foot kinematics between all groups, and high-dye taping seems to have better therapeutic features with respect to low-d dye taping as the latter created a more inverted forefoot which may not be recommended in this population.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Quantitative assessment of gait in elderly people affected by Parkinson's Disease
TL;DR: The results show that peculiar features are identifiable, especially in terms of functional limitations of hip and knee joints and confirm the validity of the GPS approach to describe the deviations from a physiologic gait pattern.

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.
Book
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.
