The adaptation of the foot to heavy loads: Plantar foot pressures study
Clinical Biomechanics, 1997INTRODUCTION:: The foot serves as the main shock absorber during various activities as walking running and jumping. There are static and dynamic mechanisms which play a role in the adaptation of the foot to weight bearing walking with weights. The function of the foot while weight bearing was studied mainly under static conditions.

A shapeable foot-pressure measuring device
Journal of Biomedical Engineering, 1989Measurement of foot pressure distribution for clinical purposes should ideally be made inside the shoe with a shaped insole and raised heel. Pressure measuring platforms cannot do this and transducers inserted inside the shoe can be obtrusive and inaccurate.

A Wearable Foot Pressure Sensor
2021 IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Communication (ICAIRC), 2021A foot pressure sensor with an impedance adaptive RFID chip is proposed in this paper. It is used as a shoe pad and is easy to wear. The newly designed sensor consists of three components: RFID chip and antenna, supporting layer, and reflective surface. The distance between the RFID antenna and the reflective surface corresponds to the impedance sensor

Foot pressure distribution in patients with gonarthrosis
The Foot, 2012When standing, leg alignment is controlled by supinating or pronating the subtalar joint, corresponding to valgus or varus deformity of the knee joint. However, in the gait cycle, it is not clear whether the abnormal alignment can be compensated.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the control of leg alignment in the latter half of the gait cycle ...

Pressure distribution beneath the human foot
Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 1993A descriptive study was undertaken to establish the 95 percentile limits (proposed normal reference range) for pressure beneath the hallux, metatarsal heads, and heel in a group of healthy adult subjects. A new force plate device capable of accurately measuring discrete areas of pressure beneath the human foot with high temporal and spatial resolution ...

Foot pressure differences in men and women
Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2010Women and men are anatomically and physiologically different in a number of ways. Anthropometric studies have shown considerable differences in the foot bones of both genders. These differences could potentially mean different foot pressures in men and women.The aim of our study was to investigate any potential foot pressure differences between males ...

Determinants of plantar pressures in the diabetic foot
Journal of Diabetes and its Complications, 2002The aim of this study was to determine, by the use of regression analysis, the factors that are associated with the increased plantar pressure in the diabetic foot. In-shoe plantar pressure measurements using the Novel Pedar were carried out on 50 subjects with diabetes.

The effect of foot type on the foot morphology and foot pressure of obese children
Footwear Science, 2017Previous study showed that obese children displayed flatter feet compared to their normal-weighted counterparts (Riddiford-Harland, Steele, & Storlien, 2000).

AN OVERVIEW OF FOOT PRESSURE MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS
Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 1993Pressure measurement systems are increasingly important for the clinician in the 1990s; however, choosing the right device is still not an easy task. This article, an overview of current technologies, focuses on the basic principles of new systems and clarifies technical specifications but does not judge specific brands.

Calibration of optical foot pressure systems
Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 1997OPTICAL FOOT pressure measuring systems (pedobarographs) are based on a technique developed by Chodera (CHODERA, 1957), and have been used to assist in the assessment of a wide range of foot abnormalities (BETTS et al., 1991). In these systems, a white rubber, plastic or photographic paper foil is placed on top of a glass plate.
