2023 journal article

The influence of induced gait asymmetry on joint reaction forces

JOURNAL OF BIOMECHANICS, 153.

By: E. McCain*, M. Dalman n, M. Berno n, T. Libera n, M. Lewek*, G. Sawicki*, K. Saul n

author keywords: Musculoskeletal modeling; Simulation; Joint restriction; Joint reaction force
MeSH headings : Humans; Gait / physiology; Knee Joint / physiology; Lower Extremity / physiology; Knee; Walking / physiology; Biomechanical Phenomena
TL;DR: While joint restriction results in increased limb loading, reductions in muscle forces counteract changes in limb loading such that JRFs were relatively unchanged, similar to other JRFs investigated. (via Semantic Scholar)

2021 journal article

Isolating the energetic and mechanical consequences of imposed reductions in ankle and knee flexion during gait

JOURNAL OF NEUROENGINEERING AND REHABILITATION, 18(1).

By: E. McCain n, T. Libera n, M. Berno n, G. Sawicki*, K. Saul n & M. Lewek*

author keywords: Biomechanics; Gait; Ankle; Knee; Metabolic cost
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / physiology; Adult; Ankle; Ankle Joint / physiology; Biomechanical Phenomena; Female; Gait / physiology; Humans; Knee Joint / physiology; Male; Range of Motion, Articular / physiology; Walking; Young Adult
TL;DR: As expected, reduced ankle motion, either without ( restricted-ank) or in addition to knee restriction (restricted-a + k) yielded significant increase in net metabolic rate when compared with the braced condition, and the relative increase in metabolic cost was significantly larger with restricted-a'+’k when compared to restricted-knee condition.

2021 journal article

Reduced joint motion supersedes asymmetry in explaining increased metabolic demand during walking with mechanical restriction

JOURNAL OF BIOMECHANICS, 126.

By: E. McCain n, M. Berno n, T. Libera n, M. Lewek*, G. Sawicki* & K. Saul n

author keywords: Gait; Asymmetry; Metabolic cost; Degrees of freedom; Joint restriction
MeSH headings : Ankle Joint; Biomechanical Phenomena; Gait; Humans; Knee Joint; Walking
TL;DR: The results emphasize symmetry is not by definition metabolically optimal, indicate that the mechanics underlying symmetry are meaningful, and suggest that available degrees of freedom should be considered in designing future interventions. (via Semantic Scholar)
