Step by Step: A Study of Step Length in Able-bodied Persons, Race walkers, and Persons with Amputation

Description:

Step length is a common measurement taken during gait analyses. It allows one to determine asymmetries between the two legs, compare differences between subjects, and even compare intra-subject differences for changing parameters. Yet there has been little investigation of step length specifically and how it is modulated during walking. This...

The Role of the Spine in Human Walking: Studies of Able-bodied Persons and Individuals With Spine Pathologies

Description:

The role that spinal motion plays during ambulation is not clearly understood. Little in vivo regional spinal motion data exists in the literature with regard to walking and most gait models disregard the upper body altogether, or regard it as a single rigid structure. This study aims to increase understanding...
