Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerometry: a technique for quantifying movement patterns during walking.
TL;DR: The use of accelerometers attached to the upper body has provided useful insights into the motor control of normal walking, age-related differences in dynamic postural control, and gait patterns in people with movement disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coordination of leg swing, thorax rotations, and pelvis rotations during gait: The organisation of total body angular momentum
TL;DR: The shift in pelvis-thorax coordination from in-phase to out of phase with increasing velocity was found to depend on the pelvis beginning to move in- phase with the femur, while the thorax continued to counter rotate with respect to the Femur.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Motions of Trunk and Pelvis During Transfemoral Amputee Gait
TL;DR: It was observed that upper-body angular ranges of motion (ROMs) increased globally as walking velocity decreased, and the motion of the upper body must be considered to enhance gait.

Comparison of Trunk Activity during Gait Initiation and Walking in Humans

TL;DR: Comparison of ES muscle EMG data showed that ES activity anticipates propulsive phases in walking with a repetitive pattern, suggesting a programmed control by a central pattern generator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast displacement in three dimensions during the walking and running gait cycles
TL;DR: 3-D assessment and the elimination of trunk movement in 6 degrees of freedom are essential to accurately report breast displacement during the gait cycle, suggests this may improve bra design and has yet to be reported.

Gait Analysis: Normal and Pathological Function
TL;DR: This text encompasses the work of Dr Jacquelin Perry in her years as a therapist and surgeon focusing on the human gait, suitable for incorporating into many athletic training programmes, university physical therapy programmes and gait workshops.
Journal ArticleDOI
The major determinants in normal and pathological gait.
TL;DR: The adoption of the concept that fundamentally locomotion is the translation of the center of gravity through space along a pathway requiring the least expenditure of energy supplies the necessary unifying principle which permits of qualitative analysis in terms of the essential determinants of gait.

Walking Patterns of Normal Men
M P Murray,A B Drought,R C Kory +2 more
TL;DR: A simple and inexpensive photographic method has been developed whereby many kinematic components of the walking act in the sagittal, frontal, and transverse planes can be measured and related temporally.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of mature gait.
TL;DR: The development of mature gait is studied in rats using a probabilistic approach and shows clear signs of decline in the older age group, particularly in the legs and ankles.
Gait analysis in cerebral palsy
TL;DR: A recent advance in the study of walking patterns has been the development of the gait laboratory, where the use of a videotape, EMG and force plates allows the study the origins of a child's abnormal gait.
