Measurement of Human Locomotion

By Vladimir Medved

Book Overview

Measurement of Human Locomotion describes the instrument systems used for measuring the kinematics of human movement; kinetic quantities experienced by the human body in contact with the ground; and myoelectric changes associated with locomotor activity. It emphasizes the physical principles behind the operation of various measurement systems as well as signal processing issues that must be addressed in order to obtain and use quantitative measurement variables in biomechanics. The book explains how measurement data are acquired, processed, and presented in a modern computer-based laboratory.
