Investigating Brain Injury Tolerance in the Sagittal Plane Using a Finite Element Model of the Human Head

open access: yes, 2016
Despite decades of research and regulation, brain injuries remain a leading cause of traffic related death and disability worldwide. In this study, the human tolerance to brain injury was investigated by applying pure angular and linear kinematic loading

Biomechanical Comparison of Single- and Double-Leg Jump Landings in the Sagittal and Frontal Plane

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016
Background: Double-leg forward or drop-jump landing activities are typically used to screen for high-risk movement strategies and to determine the success of neuromuscular injury prevention programs. However, research suggests that these tasks that occur

A robust sagittal plane hexapedal running model with serial elastic actuation and simple periodic feedforward control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this article we present a sagittal plane, sprawled posture hexapedal running model with distributed body inertia, massless legs and serial elastic actuation at the hips as well as along the telescoping legs.

Influence of neck pain on cervical movement in the sagittal plane during smartphone use

open access: yesJournal of Physical Therapy Science, 2015
[Purpose] Smartphone use reportedly changes posture. However, how neck posture is altered in smartphone users with neck pain is unknown. This study examined changes in the posture of young adults with and without mild neck pain (MNP) when using a ...

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.
