This study presented a method to estimate the complete ground reaction forces from pressure insoles in walking. Five male subjects performed 10 walking trials in a laboratory. The complete ground reaction forces were collected during a right foot stride by a force plate at 1000Hz. Simultaneous plantar pressure data were collected at 100Hz by a pressure insole system with 99 sensors covering the...

[Purpose] Fatigue may be an important contributing factor to non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries in sports. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of controlled lower limb fatigue, induced by a short-term, high-intensity exercise protocol, on the profile of the ground reaction force during landings from single-leg anterior drop-jumps. [Subjects and Methods] Twelve hea...

Because musculoskeletal injuries to racehorses are common, instrumentation for the study of factors (e.g. track surface), which affect the ground reaction loads in horses during racing conditions, would be useful. The objectives of the work reported by this paper were to (1) design and construct a novel dynamometric horseshoe that is capable of measuring the complete ground reaction loading dur...

We put forward a constructive definition of electricity forward price curve with crosssectional timescale encompassing hourly frequency upward. The curve is jointly consistent to both riskneutral market information, as represented by baseload and peakload futures quotes, and historical market information, as mirrored by periodical patterns exhibited by time series of dayahead prices. On a metho...
