A Simple Physical Model of Human Gait Using Principles of Kinematics and BTS GAITLAB

摘要

The aim of this work is to present the one-dimensional gait kinematic principle, in order to identify the kinematic parameters for each type of gait associated with uniform linear motion and uniformly accelerated motion. This paper presents the one-dimensional gait kinematic principle, in order to identify the kinematic parameters for Normal and Pathological (transtibial amputation) Gait of two subjects with similar anthropometry. The developed physical model complements the information of the data acquisition system and is used for teaching Mechanics Physics in Biomedical Engineering and Physiotherapy.
