A Comparative Kinematic and Biomechanical Analysis of Two Gait Simulators
نویسنده
چکیده
The maturation of the fitness movement has brought with it an increasingly sophisticated consumer that has become concerned with the stress which activities such as jogging or running impose on the body. In order to maintain and improve their level of fitness, many in this group have sought out new modalities that provide the desired training stimulus but with reduced wear and tear. To meet this demand manufacturers first introduced treadmills with impact absorbing suspension systems.

Background: Deficits in upper body movement have received little attention during gait in cerebral palsy (CP) children with crouch gait pattern (CGP).Objective: Purpose of this research is to describe the correlation of trunk movement with the excessive knee flexion and ankle kinematic in CP children with CGP.Methods: Gait analysis data from 57 limbs of diplegic CP children with CGP and 26 limb...
متن کاملKinematic and Gait Analysis Implementation of an Experimental Radially Symmetric Six-Legged Walking Robot
As a robot could be stable statically standing on three or more legs, a six legged walking robot can be highly flexible in movements and perform different missions without dealing with serious kinematic and dynamic problems. An experimental six legged walking robot with 18 degrees of freedom is studied and built in this paper. The kinematic and gait analysis formulations are demonstrated by an e...
