Adjustments to McConville et al. and Young et al. body segment inertial parameters
TL;DR: Adjusted scaling equations are obtained for both males and females that provide BSIPs which are directly applicable in the conventional SCSs and do not restrain the position of the centre of mass and the orientation of the principal axes.
Journal ArticleDOI
External loading of the knee joint during running and cutting maneuvers.
TL;DR: The combined external moments applied to the knee joint during stance phase of the cutting tasks are believed to place the ACL and collateral ligaments at risk of injury, particularly at knee flexion angles between 0 degrees and 40 degrees, if appropriate muscle activation strategies are not used to counter these moments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human movement analysis using stereophotogrammetry. Part 2: instrumental errors.
TL;DR: Since the desired outcome of the movement measurements is a reliable estimate of body segment kinematics, state-of-the-art techniques proposed for minimization of error propagation arising from a cluster of external markers are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gait analysis methods in rehabilitation.
TL;DR: Clinical gait analysis is extremely limited if it does not allow clinicians to choose between alternative possible interventions or to predict outcomes, and the potential of using models of the mechanisms by which people with pathology walk in order to simulate different potential interventions is started.

Validation of a functional method for the estimation of hip joint centre location.
Alberto Leardini,Aurelio Cappozzo,Fabio Catani,Sören Toksvig-Larsen,Aldo Petitto,Vincenzo Sforza,Giancarlo Cassanelli,Sandro Giannini +7 more
TL;DR: The functional method performed significantly better and estimated HJCs within a rms distance of 13 mm on average and is suggested for use in motion analysis when the subject's hip range of motion is not limited.

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.
