Intra-day variation in daily outdoor walking speed among community-dwelling older adults

BMC Geriatrics, 2021
Background Walking speed is an important measure associated with health outcomes in older individuals, such as dependency and death. This study aimed to examine whether the walking speed of community-dwelling older adults varies between time periods ...

Speed-Related Energy Flow and Joint Function Change During Human Walking

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
During human walking, mechanical energy transfers between segments via joints. Joint mechanics of the human body are coordinated with each other to adapt to speed change. The aim of this study is to analyze the functional behaviors of major joints during

Normal Walking Speed According to Age and Gender in Preliminary Students in Surabaya

Surabaya Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Journal, 2022
Background: Studies on walking have been developed recently because the speed of walking plays an important role in making predictions related to physical health. However, studies of walking speed in children are still relatively few even though the need

Energy Efficiency of Force-Sensor-Controlled Humanoid-Robot Walking on Indoor Surfaces

IEEE Access, 2020
We report an energy-efficiency analysis for the walking pattern of a humanoid robot on different indoor surfaces with different walking speeds. The walking efficiency is measured through experiments for the maximum distance, which can be covered by the ...

Association between Toe Pressure Strength in the Standing Position and Maximum Walking Speed in Older Adults [PDF]

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research, 2023
Background Considering concerns about conventional toe grip strength, we devised a method to measure toe pressure strength in the standing position, which is close to the actual motion. This study examined the association between toe pressure strength in

Cerebral small vessel disease, cardiovascular risk factors, and future walking speed in old age: a population-based cohort study

BMC Neurology, 2021
Background The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between combined and individual cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) markers on future walking speed over 9 years; and to explore whether these associations varied by the presence of ...

A Wearable Mixed Reality Platform to Augment Overground Walking: A Feasibility Study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Humans routinely modify their walking speed to adapt to functional goals and physical demands. However, damage to the central nervous system (CNS) often results in abnormal modulation of walking speed and increased risk of falls.
