Although the role of shoe constructions on running injury and performance has been widely
investigated, systematic reviews on the shoe construction effects on running biomechanics …

Matching running footwear features to the functional needs of specific groups of runners
stratified according to their training status or running experience has the potential to improve …

Placing a stronger focus on subject-specific responses to footwear may lead to a better
functional understanding of footwear's effect on running and its influence on comfort …

Although various sports footwear demonstrated marked changes in running biomechanical
variables, few studies have yielded definitive findings on the underlying mechanisms of …

Previous studies have used accelerometers with various operating ranges (ORs) when
measuring biomechanical parameters. However, it is still unclear whether ORs influence the …

Increasingly, inertial sensors are being used for running analyses. The aim of this study was
to systematically investigate the influence of inertial sensor sampling frequencies (SF) on the …

Accelerometers and gyroscopes are used to detect foot strike (FS), ie, the moment when the
foot first touches the ground. However, it is unclear whether different conditions (footwear …

Purpose: Dual density midsole constructions at the lateral rearfoot and medial midfoot
provide opportunities to improve cushioning and stability of running shoes. By similar …

The present paper describes a shape optimization procedure for designing running shoes,
focusing on two mechanical properties, namely, the shock absorption and the stability …

Injury prevention is essential in running due to the risk of overuse injury development.
Tailoring running shoes to individual needs may be a promising strategy to reduce this risk …
