This paper reviews the main aspects involved with the management of instrumental errors
associated with video-based optoelectronic stereophotogrammetry. Insights on how such …

Kinematics is treated as a single topic in this manuscript and the emphasis is on early
history, just as it was in Part I, Electromyography. Needless to say, neither kinematics nor …

In area F5 of the monkey premotor cortex there are neurons that discharge both when the
monkey performs an action and when he observes a similar action made by another monkey …

Neurons of the rostral part of inferior premotor cortex of the monkey discharge during goal-
directed hand movements such as grasping, holding, and tearing. We report here that many …

The well-known condition for standing stability in static situations is that the vertical
projection of the centre of mass (CoM) should be within the base of support (BoS). On the …

The aim of this study was to investigate the biomechanics and motor co-ordination in
humans during stair climbing at different inclinations. Ten normal subjects ascended and …

Objectives: It is not known whether changes in the biomechanics of elderly gait are related to
aging per se, or to reduced walking speed in this population. The goals of the present study …

Head kinematics were studied in ten normal subjects while they executed various locomotor
tasks. The movement of the body was recorded with a video system which allowed a …

This paper presents a human walking model built from experimental data based on a wide
range of normalized velocities. The model is structured on two levels. On the first level …

The knee joint kinematics of a group (n= 20) of elderly normal subjects (mean age= 67
years) were investigated using flexible electrogoniometry. The flexion–extension angle of …
