This paper presents kinematics form of pronation and supination movement. The algorithm Stewart platform motion can be used to create a new (or pronation) motion. Pronation taken as which has not any rotation on x-axis y-axis. In this case, only one parameter. Supination movement creates helix curve. Additionally, the correlation between angle extension is 1. allows us use artificial intelligen...

Introduction Excessive pronation is considered to be the cause of various overuse injuries. Thus, different mechanisms to control excessive pronation have been developed (e.g. dual density and medial support shoes). Reducing effects of shoes with extreme varus angles (VA) of 8–10° on pronation (TPR) and maximum pronation velocity (MPV) have been shown [1,2]. However, resultant GRFs, loading rat...

The relation between foot pronation and stress fractures has been suggested. However, evidence based literature is lacking and contradictory. The purpose of this study was to examine whether dynamic parameters of foot pronation are related to the development of stress fractures of the femur and tibia. 2 weeks prior to beginning of 14 weeks of basic military training, 473 infantry recruits were ...

OBJECTIVE : To investigate the slope influence on the maximal subtalar pronation in submaximal running speeds. METHODS : Sixteen endurance runners participated of a running economy (RE) test in a treadmill with different slopes (+1%, +5%, +10%, +15%). For each slope a 4-minute run was performed with no rest break for the purpose of measuring the magnitude of kinematic variables by means of a ...

BACKGROUND Low-dye (LD) taping is commonly used to reduce rearfoot pronation. No studies have previously investigated the effectiveness of LD taping using both plantar pressure distribution (F-Scan) and 3-D (CODA) analysis of rearfoot motion. METHODS 20 healthy subjects with a navicular drop test exceeding 10 mm participated in the study. T tests were used to determine whether significant (p ...

A kinematic study was performed to examine the influence of elbow position on the range of supination and pronation of the forearm. The ranges of supination and pronation were measured in 50 volunteers (25 men and 25 women) using a custom-designed jig which constrained unwanted and confounding movements of the limb. Measurements were taken with the elbow in full extension, 45 degrees flexion, 9...

PURPOSE This study examined the kinematic differences between a body-powered prosthesis and a biomechatronics prosthesis as a transradial amputee performed activities that involve flexion/extension and supination/pronation of the wrist. METHOD The subject's wrist movements were calculated and compared as he completed a wrist range of motion test involving simulated flexion/extension and supin...
