The importance of measurements for the proper assessment of human
locomotion is increasingly being recognized. The fields of
application encompass both healthy and pathological locomotion as
encountered in rehabilitation medicine, orthopedics, kinesiology,
sports medicine, and the like. Measurement of Human Locomotion
provides an up-to-date description of the instrument systems used
for measurement of: kinematics of human movement; kinetic
quantities experienced by the human body in contact with the
ground; and, myoelectric changes associated with locomotor
activity. Physical principles behind the operation of various
measurement systems are emphasized, 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
to the user in the environment of a modern, computer-based
laboratory. The ultimate aim is to contribute to the processes of
the diagnosis and treatment of locomotion disorders. The purpose of
Measurement of Human Locomotion is to provide a concise but
comprehensive presentation of the systems used for the measurement
of human locomotion, with a view to the assessment and diagnosis of
the phenomenon.
