The Master runner (age 35 y and above) represents a unique athletic patient. Lifelong
participation in endurance running slows the inevitable age-related decline in aerobic …

In the last 40 years, biomechanics has progressed significantly as a subdiscipline within
kinesiology. The development of national and international societies dedicated to …

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of age on running mechanics
separately for male and female runners and to quantify sex differences in running …

Coordination variability (CV) quantifies the variety of movement patterns an individual uses
during a task and may provide a measure of the flexibility of that individual's motor system …

Introduction Flat feet in children negatively affect lower limb alignment and cause adverse
health-related problems. The long-term application of foot orthoses (FOs) may have the …

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of speed on coordination and its
variability in running gait using vector coding analysis. Lower extremity kinematic data were …

Background Running-related overuse injuries can result from the combination of extrinsic
(eg, running mileage) and intrinsic risk factors (eg, biomechanics and gender), but the …

Purpose The ability to generate tongue pressure plays a major role in bolus transport in
swallowing. In studies of motor control, stability or variability of movement is a feature that …

Objective Vector coding is a non-linear data analysis technique that quantifies inter-
segmental coordination and coordination variability. The traditional approach of reporting …

The development of a methodology to assess movement coordination has provided gait
researchers a tool to assess movement organization. A challenge in analyzing movement …
