Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional kinematics of the human knee during walking.
TL;DR: The measurements have identified that substantial angular and linear motions occur about and along each of the JCS axes during walking, and do not support the traditional view that the so-called 'screw home' mechanism of the knee joint operates during gait.

Non-invasive method for determining kinematic movement of the cervical spine
TL;DR: In this article, a non-invasive method for determining kinematic movement of the cervical spine was proposed, which compares biomechanical pathways of a human patient's head free range of motion in space with either standardized biomechanic pathway data or previously determined biomechanically pathway data of the same person.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current techniques for measuring motion.
TL;DR: The sports scientist and the ergonomist, although sharing a common disciplinary background, pursue fundamentally different goals; the patterns of approach to the analysis of movement they adopt are, nevertheless, similar and a model of this approach is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical Energy Changes and the Oxygen Cost of Running
TL;DR: The relationship between the oxygen cost of running at sub-maximal speeds and running mechanics was investigated in a group of trained athletes by means of an energy analysis as discussed by the authors, where subjects were filmed while running on a motorized treadmill.
Kinematics and fixation of total knee arthroplasties : a clinical, radiographic, scintimetric, and roentgen stereophotogrammetric evaluation
TL;DR: Aseptic loosening of the tibial component is an important cause of failure after total knee arthroplasty and bone destruction often claimed to be caused by the cement makes the revision difficult.

Journal ArticleDOI
An electrogoniometric study of knee motion in normal gait.
TL;DR: The results were comparable to those obtained by photometric methods using skeletal pins or skin markers and the electrogoniometric method has the great advantage that it can be used in clinical studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transverse rotation of the segments of the lower extremity in locomotion.
TL;DR: Transverse rotations of the pelvis, femur, and tibia occur in all normal individuals and inward and outward rotation of the segments are related to weight-bearing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total motion knee goniometry
TL;DR: A new knee goniometer of the direct-attachment electromechanical type is described, and a computional technique for quantifying the total relative motion of the lower leg relative to the upper leg is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The popliteus muscle
TL;DR: The popliteus muscle was studied during both normal gait and a series of planned exercises to conclude that its basic function is to help to bring about and maintain internal rotation of the tibia on the femur.
