IntroductionGolf swing generates power through coordinated rotations of the pelvis and upper torso, which are highly consistent among professionals. Currently, golf performance is graded on handicap, length-of-shot, and clubhead-speed-at-impact.

Finite element modelling of an energy–storing prosthetic foot during the stance phase of transtibial amputee gait [PDF]
Energy-storing prosthetic feet are designed to store energy during mid-stance motion and to recover it during latestance motion. Gait analysis is the most commonly used method to characterize prosthetic foot behaviour during walking. In using this method,

Internal hip rotation in cerebral palsy (CP) is typically treated with a femoral derotation osteotomy. This has been shown to be largely a successful procedure but recurrence rates up to 41% have been reported.

Slow gait speed and cardiac rehabilitation participation in older adults after acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
Background Lack of participation in cardiac rehabilitation ( CR ) and slow gait speed have both been associated with poor long‐term outcomes in older adults after acute myocardial ...

Gait and cognition: mapping the global and discrete relationships in ageing and neurodegenerative disease [PDF]
Recent research highlights the association of gait and cognition in older adults but a stronger understanding is needed to discern coincident pathophysiology, patterns of change, examine underlying mechanisms and aid diagnosis.

ObjectiveAdults with cerebral palsy (CP) often have impaired cognitive functions. CP also has deteriorations in multiple quality-of-life (QoL) domains. The bio-psycho-social health psychology model posits that biological factor interacts with social and ...

Walking in the Absence of Anterior Cruciate Ligament: The Role of the Quadriceps and Hamstrings
The actual need for surgical reconstruction of an injured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is still a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to quantify and analyze the knee kinematics and the ligament force redistribution resulting from the ACL ...

Learning optimised representations for view-invariant gait recognition [PDF]
Gait recognition can be performed without subject cooperation under harsh conditions, thus it is an important tool in forensic gait analysis, security control, and other commercial applications.

Background Sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transitions are frequent daily functional tasks indicative of muscle power and balance performance. Monitoring these postural transitions with inertial sensors provides an objective tool to assess mobility in both
