Analysis of selected kinematic parameters which condition children locomotion in water
نویسنده
چکیده
The mechanism of the human moving in water relies on the mutual impact of particular segments of the locomotion system. The essence of a small child locomotion in water is not developing speed, but primarily maintaining on the water surface and crossing the longest possible distance [1]. The subject of this work is the time and space analysis of the locomotion cycle of the infants’ lower limb during the locomotion in water.

This paper presents simplified hydrodynamics model for a biomimetic robot fish based on quantitative morphological and kinematic parameters of crangiform fish. The motion of four Pangasius sanitwongsei with different length and swimming speed were recorded by the digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) and image processing methods and optimal coefficients of the motion equations and appropria...
متن کاملImproved Estimates of Kinematic Wave Parameters for Circular Channels
The momentum equation in the kinematic wave model is a power-law equation with two parameters. These parameters, which relate the discharge to the flow area, are commonly derived using Manning’s equation. In general, the values of these parameters depend on the flow depth except for some special cross sections. In this paper, improved estimates of the kinematic wave parameters for circular chan...
متن کاملComparison of the kinematic pattern of knee joint flexion in healthy and genu Valgum and genu Varum children during jumping
Introduction & Objectives: genu valgum and genu varum are considered as the most common abnormalities of the knee joint in the lower extremity. Identifying of the mentioned abnormalities in the early stages of life can prevent the occurrence of later problems in the physical condition of a person's life. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to compare the kinematic pattern of knee joint ...

The aim of this work is to use Self Organizing Map (SOM) for clustering of locomotion kinetic characteristics in normal and Parkinson’s disease. The classification and analysis of the kinematic characteristics of human locomotion has been greatly increased by the use of artificial neural networks in recent years. The proposed methodology aims at overcoming the constraints of traditional analysi...
