Predicting Muscle Forces in the Human Lower Limb during Locomotion
Claes for being my supervisor. As a member of the bone research group, I am also thankful to the head of this group Privatdozent Peter Augat for supporting me. Special thanks go to Professor John Rasmussen from the AnyBody group, University of Aalborg, Denmark. It is a great honor to me that he agreed to examine this thesis. I would also like to thank his colleague Professor Michael Damsgaard f...
متن کاملThe effect of isometric contractions of upper and lower limb muscles on the ultrasonic thickness of the transversus abdominis muscle
Background: The transverse abdominis (TrA) muscle is one of the most important muscles that contribute to the stability of the lumbar spine. Strengthening of trunk muscles that have a significant role in trunk stability is very important in the field of professional sport, sport medicine and rehabilitation of patient with low back pain (LBP). Identifying the exercises that can improve the stren...
متن کاملFibre operating lengths of human lower limb muscles during walking.
Muscles actuate movement by generating forces. The forces generated by muscles are highly dependent on their fibre lengths, yet it is difficult to measure the lengths over which muscle fibres operate during movement. We combined experimental measurements of joint angles and muscle activation patterns during walking with a musculoskeletal model that captures the relationships between muscle fibr...
متن کاملEffect of Foot Orthoses on the Timing of Lower Limb Muscles Activity during Walking in Older Adults
Introduction: As a person gets older, their gait patterns change and their ability to walk decreases. Orthoses are used to relieve musculoskeletal disorders, skeletal problems, disabilities, etc. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of orthoses on timing of lower limb muscles in the older adults during gait. Methods: The present study was a clinical trial. 14 females ...
متن کاملSimulation of lower limb axial arterial length change during locomotion.
The effect of external forces on axial arterial wall mechanics has conventionally been regarded as secondary to hemodynamic influences. However, arteries are similar to muscles in terms of the manner in which they traverse joints, and their three-dimensional geometrical requirements for joint motion. This study considers axial arterial shortening and elongation due to motion of the lower extrem...
