Kinematics of Hip, Knee and Ankle During Cross- Slope Walking
Purpose: Little information is available on joint kinematic adaptations during walking on cross-slope surfaces (i.e. a surface incline perpendicular to the direction of locomotion). This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cross-slope surfaces on three-dimensional (3D) kinematics of hip, knee, and ankle joints during stance phase of walking. Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study...
متن کاملMeasurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking.
A simple external marker system and algorithms for computing lower extremity joint angle motion during level walking were developed and implemented on a computer-aided video motion analysis system (VICON). The concept of embedded axes and Euler rotation angles was used to define the three-dimensional joint angle motion based on a set of body surface markers. Gait analysis was performed on 40 no...
متن کاملLower Extremity EMG-driven Modeling of Walking
1 Neuromusculoskeletal disorders affecting walking ability are often difficult to manage, in part due to 2 limited understanding of how a patient’s lower extremity muscle excitations contribute to the patient’s 3 lower extremity joint moments. To assist in the study of these disorders, researchers have developed 4 electromyography (EMG) driven neuromusculoskeletal models utilizing scaled generi...
متن کاملThe influence of different force and pressure measuring transducers on lower extremity kinematics measured during walking.
The examination of synchronous three dimensional (3-D) kinetics and kinematics of walking in laboratory based analyses typically requires participants/patients to make foot contact with a force or pressure measuring device. However, it has been proposed that this may lead to targeting whereby participants modify their natural gait pattern in order to ensure contact with the device. This study a...
متن کاملVariability of lower extremity joint kinematics during backward walking in a virtual environment.
Backward walking (BW) shows significant differences with forward walking (FW) and these differences are potentially useful in rehabilitation. However the lack of visual cues makes BW risky. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of visual cues provided by a virtual environment on FW and BW on gait variability. Each subject underwent four conditions of treadmill walking at self-...
