Background The mechanical demands of underwater shoulder exercises have only been
assessed indirectly via electromyographical measurements. Yet, this is insufficient to …

Backgrounds: Joint kinetic calculations are sensitive to joint centre locations. Although
geometric hip and knee joint centre/axis are generally developed, the ankle joint centre …

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is associated with alterations in gait. As an alternative to force
plates, instrumented force shoes (IFSs) can be used to measure ground reaction forces. This …

Objective To determine the immediate effects of a varus unloader knee brace on lower-limb
electromyographic activity in individuals with lateral knee osteoarthritis and valgus …

Inverse dynamics are the cornerstone of biomechanical assessments to calculate knee
moments during walking. In knee osteoarthritis, these outcomes have been used to …

Background and Purpose: Focal muscle spasticity is defined as spasticity that affects a
localized group of muscles. It is prevalent in many adult-onset neurological conditions, yet …

Delivering a cricket ball with a wrist-spin (WS) bowling technique is considered one of the
game's most difficult skills. Limited biomechanical information exists for WS bowlers across …

This study compared lower-limb muscle function, defined as the contributions of muscles to
center-of-mass support and braking, during a single-leg hopping task in anterior cruciate …

Objectives This study examined whether young (15–19 years old) high-performance netball
players exhibit different landing mechanics compared to female controls who do not …

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 …
