One edge of an elastic rod is inserted into a friction-less and fitting socket head, whereas the other edge is subjected to a torque, generating a uniform twisting moment. It is theoretically shown and experimentally proved that, although perfectly smooth, the constraint realizes an expulsive axial force on the elastic rod, which amount is independent ...

This study aims to improve our understanding of gait initiation mechanisms and the lower-limb joint mechanical energy contributions. Healthy subjects were instructed to initiate gait on an instrumented track to reach three self-selected target velocities:

Background: Compared to conventional racing shoes, Nike Vaporfly 4% running shoes reduce the metabolic cost of level treadmill running by 4%. The reduction is attributed to their lightweight, highly compliant, and resilient midsole foam and a midsole ...

The trajectory of the body centre of mass (BCoM) during locomotion differs through speeds, gaits and pathological states; statistical methods are needed to compare it among different conditions. Here, ten participants walked on treadmill at 1.1 and 1.4 m/
