Correlational analysis between joint-level kinetics of countermovement jumps and weightlifting derivatives [PDF]

, 2019
The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanical similarity between net joint moments (NJM) of the countermovement jump (CMJ) and the hang power clean (HPC) and jump shrug (JS).

Approximate Analytical Model for the Squeeze-Film Lubrication of the Human Ankle Joint with Synovial Fluid Filtrated by Articular Cartilage [PDF]

, 2011
The aim of this article is to propose an analytical approximate squeeze-film lubrication model of the human ankle joint for a quick assessment of the synovial pressure field and the load carrying due to the squeeze motion.

Bioinspired Liquid‐Free Ion‐Conductive Elastomers with Ultrahigh Mechanical Strength and Excellent Ionic Conductivity for Multifunctional Flexible Sensing Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
⁻Inspired by the “brick wall” structure of pearl layer, FLICE‐110% liquid‐free ionic conductive elastomer had high mechanical strength (5.46 MPa), excellent ionic conductivity (3.29 × 10−4 S cm−1) and resilience. It can be used in smart music boxes, airplane wings and control manipulators.

Improving human ankle joint position sense using an artificial tongue-placed tactile biofeedback [PDF]

Neuroscience letters 405 (2006) 19-23, 2006
Proprioception is comprised of sensory input from several sources including muscle spindles, joint capsule, ligaments and skin. The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate whether the central nervous system was able to integrate an artificial biofeedback delivered through electrotactile stimulation of the tongue to improve proprioceptive ...

Maximum-Entropy-Rate Selection of Features for Classifying Changes in Knee and Ankle Dynamics During Running [PDF]

IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, 22(4), 1097-1103, 2018
This paper investigates deteriorations in knee and ankle dynamics during running. Changes in lower limb accelerations are analyzed by a wearable musculo-skeletal monitoring system. The system employs a machine learning technique to classify joint stiffness. A maximum-entropyrate method is developed to select the most relevant features.

Hydrogel‐Based Smart Materials for Wound Healing and Sensing

Aggregate, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of hydrogel‐based flexible materials in advancing biomedical applications, including wound healing, point‐of‐care diagnostics, smart patches, and wearable devices. Hydrogels are particularly promising in modern wound care due to their high‐water content, flexibility, and biocompatibility.

3-D kinematic comparison of treadmill and overground running. [PDF]

, 2013
Studies investigating the mechanics of human movement are often conducted using the treadmill. The treadmill is an attractive device for the analysis of human locomotion. Studies comparing overground and treadmill running have analyzed discrete variables,

Modeling and simulating the neuromuscular mechanisms regulating ankle and knee joint stiffness during human locomotion.

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2015
This work presents an electrophysiologically and dynamically consistent musculoskeletal model to predict stiffness in the human ankle and knee joints as derived from the joints constituent biological tissues (i.e., the spanning musculotendon units).
