Estimating Youth Locomotion Ground Reaction Forces Using an Accelerometer-Based Activity Monitor
To address a variety of questions pertaining to the interactions between physical activity, musculoskeletal loading and musculoskeletal health/injury/adaptation, simple methods are needed to quantify, outside a laboratory setting, the forces acting on the human body during daily activities. The purpose of this study was to develop a statistically based model to estimate peak vertical ground rea...
متن کاملGround reaction forces during locomotion in simulated microgravity.
BACKGROUND Significant losses in bone density and mineral, primarily in the lower extremities, have been reported following exposure to weightlessness. Recent investigations suggest that mechanical influences such as bone deformation and strain rate may be critically important in stimulating new bone formation. HYPOTHESIS It was hypothesized that velocity, cadence, and harness design would si...
متن کاملAn accelerometer-based earpiece to monitor and quantify physical activity.
BACKGROUND Physical activity is important in ill-health. Inexpensive, accurate and precise devices could help assess daily activity. We integrated novel activity-sensing technology into an earpiece used with portable music-players and phones; the physical-activity-sensing earpiece (PASE). Here we examined whether the PASE could accurately and precisely detect physical activity and measure its i...
متن کاملEstimating the Complete Ground Reaction Forces and Moments during Walking Using Inertial Motion Capture
Whole-body inverse dynamics techniques have been recently proposed to assess the ground reaction forces and moments (GRF&M) only from motion data. Even though such techniques remove the dependency on force plate measurements, they are still bounded by the restrictions imposed by optical motion capture, i.e. the limited marker tracking volume, increased complexity, and requirement of a laborator...
متن کاملNormalization of ground reaction forces.
The appropriateness of normalizing data, as one method to reduce the effects of a covariate on a dependent variable, should be evaluated. Using ratio, 0.67-nonlinear, and fitted normalizations, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between ground reaction force variables and body mass (BM). Ground reaction forces were recorded for 40 female subjects running at 3.7 +/- 0.18 m...
