The Physiological Cost Index and Some Kinematic Parameters of Walking and Jogging in Blind and Sighted Students
Background: Vision plays an important role in supporting efficient locomotion. The present study aimed to measure the physiological cost index (PCI) and some kinematic parameters of preferred walking and jogging in blind and sighted students.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among blind (n=18) and sighted (n=27) students aged 8-16 years. The following parameters were measured...
متن کاملAngular momentum of walking at different speeds.
Recently, researchers in robotics have used regulation of the angular momentum of body segments about the total body center of mass (CoM) to develop control strategies for bipedal gait. This work was spurred by reports finding that for a "large class" of human movement tasks, including standing, walking, and running the angular momentum is conserved about the CoM. However, there is little data ...
متن کاملThe metabolic cost of changing speeds is significant and may affect preferred walking speeds
In daily life, people seldom walk at exactly constant speeds. Most walking over a day is performed in short bouts [1]. Thus, it is of interest to measure the cost of changing speed. Minetti and co-workers [3] measured the cost of changing speeds but with non-inertial treadmill speed changes or stepfrequency control. Here, we measure the metabolic cost of changing speeds to better quantify the r...
متن کاملThe efficacy of physiological cost index (PCI) measurement of a subject walking with an Intelligent Prosthesis.
The Intelligent Prosthesis may enable lower limb amputees to walk faster than with conventionally damped prostheses and as a result the physical burden involved in walking could be expected to be considerably higher. The aim of this study was to investigate whether or not physiological cost index (PCI) is applicable as an indicator for monitoring the amount of exercise load involved in walking ...
متن کاملBiomechanical parameters in lower limbs during natural walking and Nordic walking at different speeds.
PURPOSE Nordic Walking (NW) is a sport that has a number of benefits as a rehabilitation method. It is performed with specially designed poles and has been often recommended as a physical activity that helps reduce the load to limbs. However, some studies have suggested that these findings might be erroneous. STUDY AIM The aim of this paper was to compare the kinematic, kinetic and dynamic pa...
