Lower-limb kinematics and kinetics during continuously varying human locomotion [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2021 Human locomotion involves continuously variable activities including walking, running, and stair climbing over a range of speeds and inclinations as well as sit-stand, walk-run, and walk-stairs transitions.

Review of control strategies for lower-limb exoskeletons to assist gait
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021 Background Many lower-limb exoskeletons have been developed to assist gait, exhibiting a large range of control methods. The goal of this paper is to review and classify these control strategies, that determine how these devices interact with the user ...

A review of user needs to drive the development of lower limb prostheses
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2022 Background The development of bionic legs has seen substantial improvements in the past years but people with lower-limb amputation still suffer from impairments in mobility (e.g., altered balance and gait control) due to significant limitations of the ...

Radiological assessment of lower limb alignment
EFORT Open Reviews, 2021 The full-length standing radiograph in an anteroposterior projection is the primary tool for defining and measuring limb alignment with definition of the physiological axes and mechanical and anatomic angles of the lower limb.
