Overuse injuries are generally defined as a repetitive micro-trauma to tissue. Many
researchers have associated particular biomechanical parameters as an indicator of such …

This paper overviews the importance for sports biomechanics of movement variability, which
has been studied for some time by cognitive and ecological motor skills specialists but, until …

Research Methods in Biomechanics, Second Edition, demonstrates the range of available
research techniques and how to best apply this knowledge to ensure valid data collection. In …

Several recent reviews have reported that 'repetitive movements' constitute a risk factor for
occupational musculoskeletal disorders in the neck, shoulder and arm regions. More …

Background Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a prevalent knee condition with many proposed
biomechanically orientated etiological factors and treatments. Objective We aimed to …

The aim of this paper was to present a review on the role that movement variability (MV)
plays in the analysis of sports movement and in the monitoring of the athlete's skills. MV has …

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to compare pelvis–trunk coordination and
coordination variability over a range of walking and running between three groups of …

In the groundbreaking text, Movement System Variability, internationally known scientists
synthesize the latest research in the study of variability in the human movement system and …

A method is proposed to facilitate the quantification and interpretation of inter-joint/-segment
coordination. This technique is illustrated using rearfoot–forefoot kinematic data. We expand …

Development of patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is considered to be multifactorial. The
aims of this systematic review were to (i) summarise and critique the body of literature …
