Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of heel height on lower extremity kinematics and leg muscle activity during gait in young and middle-aged women
TL;DR: It is suggested that permanent wearing of heeled footwear could contribute to muscle overuse and repetitive strain injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
The golden ratio of gait harmony: repetitive proportions of repetitive gait phases.
Marco Iosa,Augusto Fusco,Fabio Marchetti,Giovanni Morone,Carlo Caltagirone,Stefano Paolucci,Antonella Peppe +6 more
TL;DR: The repetitive gait phases of physiological walking were found in turn in repetitive proportions with each other, revealing an intrinsic harmonic structure that could be the key for facilitating the control of repetitive walking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constrained Least-Squares Optimization for Robust Estimation of Center of Rotation
TL;DR: This paper presents a new direct method for estimating the average center of rotation (CoR) that has the accuracy of the iterative methods as well as the short computation time and repeatability of a least-squares solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of lower extremity selective voluntary motor control on interjoint coordination during gait in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy.
Eileen Fowler,Evan J. Goldberg +1 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that SVMC ability is related to a patient's ability to move in an uncoupled pattern during the swing phase of gait is supported, which may help establish appropriate goals for interventions, in particular hamstring lengthenings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of the knee adduction moment on tibial cartilage volume and bone size in healthy women.
B D Jackson,Andrew J. Teichtahl,Meg E. Morris,Anita E. Wluka,Susan R. Davis,Flavia M. Cicuttini +5 more
TL;DR: It may be that the effect of the knee adduction moment differs in healthy subjects compared with those with established knee OA, and it appeared to have little effect on cartilage volume in that compartment in healthy women.

Journal ArticleDOI
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.
