The rising importance of movement analysis led to the development of more complex
biomechanical models to describe in detail the human motion patterns. The models scaled …

Background Many multi-segment foot models based on skin-markers have been proposed
for in-vivo kinematic analysis of foot joints. It remains unclear whether these models have …

The aim was to compare kinematic data from an experimental foot model comprising four
segments ((i) heel,(ii) navicular/cuboid (iii) medial forefoot,(iv) lateral forefoot), to the …

This study presented a method to estimate the complete ground reaction forces from
pressure insoles in walking. Five male subjects performed 10 walking trials in a laboratory …

The purpose of this study is to provide a quantitative characterization of gait in patients with
posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD), including temporal-spatial and kinematic …

The forming process of powder bed for additive manufacturing (AM) is analyzed and is
simplified to three processes, including random packing, layering, and compression. The …

Gait analysis, the systematic study of human walking, is a field that has been studied for well
over 100 years. With the technological and scientific advancements of the last several …

Researchers and clinicians are increasingly using plantar pressure and force measurement
system to evaluate foot functions. This research evaluates the quality and reliability of a …

Background: The moment, a force applied at a distance, is responsible for movement and
balance. A key component of the moment is the moment arm. The moment arms of nine …

Multiple marker sets and models are currently available for assessing foot and ankle
kinematics in gait. Despite the presence of such a wide variety of models, the reporting of …
