The Center of Pressure Path in Treated Clubfeet

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981
The center of pressure paths of foot-floor contact were examined in detail in normal subjects and a group of 44 patients with treated clubfeet. The foot-floor contact areas were wide and the center of pressure paths more variable in clubfeet patients.

Reliability and Validity of Center-of-Pressure Quantification

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2003
The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of two center-of-pressure quantification methods. One hundred five individuals (33 men and 72 women) with a mean age of 26.7 years participated in phase 1 of the study. Two measures of the center-of-pressure pattern, the lateral-medial area index and the lateral-medial force index,

Velocity of the center of pressure during walking

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2000
The purpose of this study was to describe the velocity of the center of pressure during walking in a sample of young, healthy individuals. The velocity of the center of pressure was recorded in 60 subjects while they walked barefoot over a floor-mounted pressure platform.

Asymmetric dynamic center-of-pressure in Parkinson's disease

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2020
Gait disturbance gradually worsens as Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, which significantly affects the quality of life of PD patients. Treadmill-based gait analysis systems can measure gait parameters including the dynamic center-of-pressure (COP) trajectory during ambulation.

Research on the pressure field of hydrostatic center rest

Proceedings of 2011 International Conference on Electronic & Mechanical Engineering and Information Technology, 2011
Pressure distribution of heavy type hydrostatic center rest used in the heavy CNC equipment is hard to be measured directly because the oil film is very thin in the practical engineering. In order to solve this problem, a simulation research concerning the pressure field of hydrostatic center rest is described.

Generalizability of center of pressure measures of quiet standing

Gait & Posture, 2007
Center of pressure (COP) measures are commonly used as indicators of balance and postural control. At present, there are no universally accepted standards in research investigating fluctuations in the COP with regard to the number of trials or the length of a given trial.

Evaluation of plantar pressures and center of pressure trajectories in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

2021
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has been postulated to affect gait patterns and postural stability due to its effect on center of body mass. 1) Determine the correlation between Cobb angle and COP in the anterior-posterior (AP) direction, COP in the medial-lateral (ML) direction, COP oscillation (COP-O) from midline walking, peak pressures, and ...

Microcantilevers Bend to the Pressure of Clustered Redox Centers

Langmuir, 2014
The redox-activated deflection of microcantilevers has attracted interest for nanoactuation and chemical sensing. Microcantilever sensors are devices that transduce (bio)chemical reactions into a quantifiable nanomechanical motion via surface stress changes. Despite promising applications in analytical science, poor signal-to-noise ratios and a limited

Management of Pressure Sores in a Specialty Center

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1979
We report a study on the surgical management of 145 pressure sores in 115 patients treated in a spinal cord injury center. There is a definite trend toward better education of these patients, who do not develop their first pressure sores until years following the injury.

Center-of-Pressure Gates for Irrigation

Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 1991
Center-of-pressure gates, sometimes referred to as pressure gates, were developed and field tested to semi-automate basin and border irrigation systems. The gates use the principle of hydrostatic pressure distribution for operation and are constructed with a pivot shaft located at approximately one-third the water depth above the bottom of the gate ...
