Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]
The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

Influence of treadmill training in dual-task gait in people with Parkinson's Disease: a case report
The loss in the automaticity of gait hinders the performance of concurrent activities - Dual Task (DT) - in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). One hypothesis for the negative interference of DT on gait is related to the limitation of attention ...

Analysis of medial deviation of center of pressure after initial heel contact in forefoot varus
After initial heel contact, the rearfoot everts and causes medial deviation of the center of pressure (CoP). Although rearfoot angle in single-limb stance has been associated with forefoot varus (FV) ≥ 8°, medial CoP deviation has not.
