The human foot is a complex structure that plays an important role in our capacity for upright
locomotion. Comparisons of our feet with those of our closest extinct and extant relatives …

Modern human feet are considered unique among primates in their capacity to transmit
propulsive forces and re-use elastic energy. Considered central to both these capabilities …

The current narrative review has explored known associations between foot shape, foot
posture, and foot conditions during running. The artificial intelligence was found to be a …

A detailed understanding of foot morphology can enable the design of more comfortable and
better fitting footwear. However, foot morphology varies widely within the population, and …

BACKGROUND: Differences in foot structure are thought to be associated with differences in
foot function during movement. Many foot pathologies are of a biomechanical nature and …

The unique shape of modern human feet, and how they change shape when loaded are
thought to be integral to effective upright gait. This unique shape, and the natural variations …

Human foot morphology has been of interest to anatomists, clinicians, and paleontologists
for a century due to its importance in bipedal walking. Foot shape changes as forces move …

Background Foot morphology has received increasing attention from both biomechanics
researches and footwear manufacturers. Usually, the morphology of the foot is quantified by …

This study presents population-based multivariate regression models for predicting foot
plantar pressure from easily measured foot metrics in both shod and barefoot populations for …

In this narrative review we evaluate foundational biomechanical theories of human foot
function in light of new data acquired with technology that was not available to early …
