Abstract: Dynamic elastic response prosthetic feet generally utilize a solid ankle, limiting dominant motion to the sagittal plane. However, researchers often use total rotational ankle joint power in the ...

Abstract: This paper presents a dynamical analysis of quadrupedal locomotion, with specific reference to an adult Nubian goat. Measurements of ground reaction forces and limb motion are used to assess ...

Abstract: In this paper, first, the principles of sonic digitizing are presented. Next, a description of quantitative determination of the relative motion between two body segments by utilization of sonic ...

Abstract: In multisegmented mathematical models of the human body the most difficult and the least successful modeling of a major articulating joint has been the shoulder complex because of the lack of ...
