As part of 2018 National Biomechanics Day, Rush University Medical Center planned an ambitious off-site multi-partner celebration of dance biomechanics. The team shares lessons-learned to help biomechanists plan successful collaborative outreach programs with like-minded community organizations.

The present study investigated the lower limb joint angle dynamics during walking and running at a range of speeds. The joint angle dynamics was assessed by the largest Lyapunov and correlation dimension. It was observed that while altered speed affected the attractor dynamics, changes in gait mode ...

The purpose of this study was to examine ‘men-kaeshi-do’ in kendo technique and clarify the common motions and technical differences at the graded technical level of experienced players. The results of the present study revealed technical differences in the motions of the elbow and knee in each ...

The time-dependent flow in the vicinity of an arterial branch is considered. The geometries are derived from patients with renal artery stenosis. The details of the flow from the abdominal aorta into the renal artery are considered by well resolved numerical simulations. The flow was compared betwee...

Summary: Residual torque depression (TD) refers to the deficit in isometric torque following active muscle shortening, and has been associated with increased spinal excitability. In support of these observations, we demonstrated that tendon-evoked reflexes are attenuated in the TD state, which is at...

Development of gait and balance dysfunction is part of the progressive nature of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Balance dysfunction is often self-reported by individuals only after it has developed. Greater postural sway by individuals with PD has been shown even early in disease progression and thus m...

Adjustable-height desks are promoted to reduce the detrimental effects of prolonged sitting. Musculoskeletal benefits may arise from increased postural variability, often measured as postural sway. We assessed postural sway using inertial measurement units while participants used computer workstatio...

In vitro experiments allow to determine biomechanical properties directly from real complex structures. Such studies are important for basic understanding of the healthy, degenerated or injured spine. These data are also necessary for validation or calibration of finite element models. But in vitro ...

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) individuals who exhibit atypical neuromuscular control strategies during a single limb forward hop demonstrate suboptimal self-reported function related to sport specific activities compared with ACLR individuals that use neuromuscular control strateg...

National Biomechanics Day (NBD) is a worldwide celebration of all things biomechanics for high school students and teachers, populations largely naïve to our field. NBD outreach events focusing on the biomechanics of sport and dance have been particularly effective by incorporating embodied learnin...

Animals must seamlessly integrate mechanics and sensorimotor control to achieve agile and stable locomotion in complex environments. Striding bipedal animals (humans and ground birds) use walking and running gaits that look qualitatively similar in whole-body dynamics, gait duty factor, and ground r...

This study dealt with temperature investigation during drilling into the artificial bone. The main aim was to develop suitable method for experimental temperature measurement. The experiments were realized with several different dental drills, and different drilling conditions (speed, cooling etc.).

This study examined how people with unilateral lower limb amputation (LLA) perform a 180⁰ turn both toward and away from their prosthetic side. Results demonstrated that people with LLA perform turns differently than people without amputation, and that individuals with LLA use differing strategies...

FCS has never become established as a biophysical routine for particle sizing. This is due to the fact that sensitivity can, under certain conditions, indeed be disadvantageous, as it renders the technique error prone and overly susceptible to signal disturbances. Here, we discuss the systematic cha...
