Kinematic-Muscular Synergies Describe Human Locomotion with a Set of Functional Synergies. [PDF]
Biomimetics (Basel)Kinematics, kinetics and biomechanics of human gait are widely investigated fields of research. The biomechanics of locomotion have been described as characterizing muscle activations and synergistic control, i.e., spatial and temporal patterns of ...

Kinematic determinants of human locomotion. [PDF]
The Journal of Physiology, 1996 1. The aim of this study was to find kinematic patterns that are invariant across the normal range of locomotion speeds. Subjects walked at different, freely chosen speeds ranging from 0.9 to 2.1 m s‐1, while motion and ground reaction forces on the right side of the body were recorded in three‐dimensional space. 2.

THE VISUAL PERCEPTION OF HUMAN LOCOMOTION [PDF]
Cognitive Neuropsychology, 1998 To function adeptly within our environment, we must perceive and interpret the movements of others. What mechanisms underlie our exquisite visual sensitivity to human m ovement? To address this question, a set of psychophysical studies was conducted to ascertain the temporal characteristics of the visual perception of human locomotion.

Does plantar skin abrasion affect cutaneous mechanosensation?
Physiological Reports, 2022 In humans, plantar cutaneous mechanoreceptors provide critical input signals for postural control during walking and running. Because these receptors are located within the dermis, the mechanical properties of the overlying epidermis likely affect the ...
