A geometric approach to three-dimensional hipped bipedal robotic walking [PDF]
, 2007 This paper presents a control law that results in stable walking for a three-dimensional bipedal robot with a hip. To obtain this control law, we utilize techniques from geometric reduction, and specifically a variant of Routhian reduction termed ...

Egocentric Reference Frame Bias In The Palmar Haptic Perception Of Surface Orientation [PDF]
, 2014 The effect of egocentric reference frames on palmar haptic perception of orientation was investigated in vertically separated locations in a sagittal plane. Reference stimuli to be haptically matched were presented either haptically (to the contralateral

Non-structural misalignments of body posture in the sagittal plane
Scoliosis and Spinal Disorders, 2018 BackgroundThe physiological sagittal spinal curvature represents a typical feature of good body posture in the sagittal plane. The cervical and the lumbar spine are curved anteriorly (lordosis), while the thoracic segment is curved posteriorly (kyphosis).

Discrepancies in Knee Joint Moments Using Common Anatomical Frames Defined by Different Palpable Landmarks [PDF]
, 2008 The aim was to investigate the effects of three anatomical frames using palpable anatomical landmarks of the knee on the net knee joint moments. The femoral epicondyles, femoral condyles, and tibial ridges were used to define the different anatomical ...

Three-dimensional ankle moments and nonlinear summation of rat triceps surae muscles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The Achilles tendon and epimuscular connective tissues mechanically link the triceps surae muscles. These pathways may cause joint moments exerted by each muscle individually not to sum linearly, both in magnitude and direction.

Behavioral Deficits and Axonal Injury Persistence after Rotational Head Injury Are Direction Dependent [PDF]
, 2013 Pigs continue to grow in importance as a tool in neuroscience. However, behavioral tests that have been validated in the rodent model do not translate well to pigs because of their very different responses to behavioral stimuli.

Kinematic Foot Types in Youth with Equinovarus Secondary to Hemiplegia [PDF]
, 2015 Background Elevated kinematic variability of the foot and ankle segments exists during gait among individuals with equinovarus secondary to hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Clinicians have previously addressed such variability by developing classification
