Analysing Acceleration for Motion Analysis [PDF]

2017 13th International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems (SITIS), 2017
Previous research in motion analysis of image sequences has generally not considered the basic nature of higher orders of motion such as acceleration. In this work, we disambiguate different types of motion, and in particular focus on acceleration.

A Comparison of the Immediate Effects of Verbal and Virtual Reality Feedback on Gait in Children with Cerebral Palsy

Children
Different types of feedback are used during gait training in children with cerebral palsy (CP), including verbal (VB) and virtual reality (VR) feedback. Previous studies on VR feedback showed positive effects on the targeted gait parameter. However, both

Long-term outcome of hamstring lengthening versus transfer and the role of biceps femoris lengthening in patients with spastic diplegia and dynamic knee flexion in gait

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2022
Background: Orthopedic treatment of flexed-knee gait consists of hamstring lengthening along with surgery at other levels. Transfer of the semitendinosus (hamstring transfer) was introduced to avoid increase of anterior pelvic tilt as well as reduce risk

Can foot angle influence the risk of injury to the lower limb joints during a field hockey hit?

BMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine, 2019
Objectives The lower limb is widely reported as the most commonly injured body part in the field of hockey, more specifically lateral ankle sprains and internal knee injury. Despite this, there remains limited understanding of how the biomechanics of the

Quantitative measures of walking and strength provide insight into brain corticospinal tract pathology in multiple sclerosis

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2017
At least 85% of individuals with multiple sclerosis report walking dysfunction as their primary complaint. Walking and strength measures are common clinical measures to mark increasing disability or improvement with rehabilitation.

Predictors of Changes in Pelvic Rotation after Surgery with or without Femoral Derotational Osteotomy in Ambulatory Children with Cerebral Palsy

Bioengineering, 2023
Asymmetry of pelvic rotation affects function. However, predicting the post-operative changes in pelvic rotation is difficult as the root causes are complex and likely multifactorial.
