Understanding the solid biomechanics of the human body is important to the study of
structure and function of the body, which can have a range of applications in health care …

In biomechanics, joint kinetics has an important role in evaluating the mechanical load of the
joint and understanding its motor function. Although an optical motion capture (OMC) system …

Ground reaction forces and moments (GRF&M) are important measures used as input in
biomechanical analysis to estimate joint kinetics, which often are used to infer information for …

Analysis of running mechanics has traditionally been limited to a gait laboratory using either
force plates or an instrumented treadmill in combination with a full-body optical motion …

Time periods composing stance phase of gait can be clinically meaningful parameters to
reveal differences between normal and pathological gait. This study aimed, first, to describe …

Abnormal gait caused by stroke or other pathological reasons can greatly impact the life of
an individual. Being able to measure and analyze that gait is often critical for rehabilitation …

We have developed a flexible-substrate-based three-axial force sensor, composed of finger-
shaped electrode capacitors, whose operation is based on the measurement of a …

Inverse dynamic analysis using musculoskeletal modeling is a powerful tool, which is
utilized in a range of applications to estimate forces in ligaments, muscles, and joints, non …

Background Wearable sensor systems can provide data for at-home gait analyses and input
to controllers for rehabilitation devices but they often have reduced estimation accuracy …

Ground reaction forces (GRFs) describe how runners interact with their surroundings and
provide the basis for computing inverse dynamics. Wearable technology can predict time …
