Assessment of Human Trunk Kinetics Using a Multi-Segment Model: An Approach to Minimize the Propagation of Experimental Errors
DownloadSpring 2018
Evaluating several pathological conditions such as low-back pain, scoliosis, herniated discs, and postural stability after spinal cord injury or chronic stroke requires a deep understanding of the inter-spinal interactions. Assessing the kinetics of the human head-arms-trunk (HAT) could provide...

Human Standing and Sitting Stability: Instrumented Objective Balance Evaluation and Quantification of Postural Control
DownloadFall 2022
Falls are one of the most frequent causes of injury in the elderly and ambulatory individuals with neuromuscular impairments. Standing balance impairment is among the most consistent predictors of future falls. Furthermore, many individuals with neuromusculoskeletal conditions use a wheelchair...
