The technology supporting the analysis of human motion has advanced dramatically. Past
decades of locomotion research have provided us with significant knowledge about the …

Human locomotion is an acquired yet complex behavior requiring little thought during
routine activities. It involves the integration of intricate sensory information within the nervous …

Objective: Current clinical biomechanics involves lengthy data acquisition and time-
consuming offline analyses with biomechanical models not operating in real-time for man …

Dynamic simulations of movement allow one to study neuromuscular coordination, analyze
athletic performance, and estimate internal loading of the musculoskeletal system …

Gait analysis is one aspect of the overall assessment of any patient with a movement
disorder. Loss of walking ability is often a major issue to the patient, thus justifying the length …

Objective: Musculoskeletal models provide a noninvasive means to study human movement
and predict the effects of interventions on gait. Our goal was to create an open-source 3-D …

Biomechanics and Gait Analysis presents a comprehensive book on biomechanics that
focuses on gait analysis. It is written primarily for biomedical engineering students …

Human gait is the identity of a person's style and quality of life. Reliable cognition of gait
properties over time, continuous monitoring, accuracy of evaluation, and proper analysis of …

Individuals following stroke exhibit altered muscle activation and movement patterns.
Improving the efficiency of gait can be facilitated by knowing which muscles are affected and …
