Gait patterns in children with autism.

TL;DR: Results suggest that children with autism demonstrate reduced plantarflexor moments and increased dorsiflexion angles, which may be associated with hypotonia.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new approach to determine the hip rotation profile from clinical gait analysis data

TL;DR: A technique is proposed to determine a correction factor which can be applied to gait data to correct for mal-alignment in conventional models of joint rotation angles arising from mis-placement of thigh markers.

Estimation of the hip joint centre in human motion analysis: A systematic review

TL;DR: The results showed that the geometric sphere fit method and Harrington equations are the most accurate functional and predictive approaches respectively that have been evaluated in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subject-specific hip geometry and hip joint centre location affects calculated contact forces at the hip during gait.

TL;DR: It is suggested that personalized models with individualized hip joint geometry and HJC location should be used for the quantification of hip loading, for biomechanical analyses aiming to understand modified hip joint loading, and planning hip surgery in patients with osteoarthritis.

Gait pattern in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

TL;DR: 3D Gait Analysis gives objective and quantitative information about the gait pattern and the deviations due to muscular situation of DMD subjects; being a single moment evaluation, it is otherwise unable to unravel changes only detectable through serial analysis during the time course of the disease and, if any, due to the treatment.

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.
