Effect of Laterally Wedged Insoles on the External Knee Adduction Moment across Different Reference Frames. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Biomechanical effects of laterally wedged insoles are assessed by reduction in the knee adduction moment. However, the degree of reduction may vary depending on the reference frame with which it is calculated. The purpose of this study was to clarify the

An inverse dynamics model for the analysis, reconstruction and prediction of bipedal walking [PDF]
, 1995 Walking is a constrained movement which may best be observed during the double stance phase when both feet contact the floor. When analyzing a measured movement with an inverse dynamics model, a violation of these constrains will always occur due to ...
