Gait kinematics have been shown to vary with speed and visual-target fixation distance, but their combined effects on toe trajectory during treadmill walking are not known. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the role of walking speed and target distance on vertical toe trajectory during treadmill walking. Subjects walked on a treadmill at five speeds while performing a dynamic v...

This study was performed to test the hypothesis that reducing the horizontal distance between the trailing foot (foot crossing the obstacle last) and obstacle, during stance just prior to stepping over the obstacle, would reduce flexion of the hip, knee, and ankle joints of the trailing limb when the toe is over the obstacle to reduce the vertical toe-obstacle clearance and increase the risk of...

Subungual melanoma is a rare subtype of melanoma. usually presents as discoloration the nail, nail splitting, or bed bleeding and may easily be misdiagnosed onychomycosis bacterial infection. Furthermore, secondary infections are possible, which could lead to late diagnosis. For this reason, most subungual melanomas diagnosed in advanced stages associated with poor prognosis. We present case 90...

Wide variety of timings and techniques has been used based on the housing, production, availability of requirements etc. This current study was done for a morphologic evaluation of the cow's digit in different trimming times. A dairy herd with 2200 milking cow, free stalls barns, average daily production of 36 liters per cow was selected. Forty cows were assigned to four groups based on hoof tr...

Big Data Solutions (BDS) refers to innovative solutions designed to perform searching, mining and analysis of high volume of data. While BDS is being actively adopted by pioneering and leading organizations due to its prospective benefits, many organizations are still divided on the need to adopt it. Security issues related to big data’s characteristics are among the hindering factors cited by ...

BACKGROUND The Ankle Brachial Index is a useful clinical test for establishing blood supply to the foot. However, there are limitations to this method when conducted on people with diabetes. As an alternative to the Ankle Brachial Index, measuring Toe Systolic Pressures and the Toe Brachial Index have been recommended to assess the arterial blood supply to the foot. This study aimed to determin...

the main objective of this article is to optimize the walking pattern of a 2d humanoid robot with heel-off and toe-off motions in order to minimize the energy consumption and maximize the stability margin. to this end, at first, a gait planning method is introduced based on the ankle and hip joint position trajectories. then, using these trajectories and the inverse kinematics, the position tra...
