A holistic approach to study the temporal variability in gait
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-04)Movement variability has become an important field of research and has been studied to gain a better understanding of the neuro-muscular control of human movements. In addition to studies investigating “amplitude variability” ... -
Application of principal component analysis in clinical gait research: Identification of systematic differences between healthy and medial knee-osteoarthritic gait
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-09)For a successful completion of a movement task the motor control system has to observe a multitude of internal constraints that govern the coordination of its segments. The purpose of this study was to apply principal ... -
Distinct muscle-tendon interaction during running at different speeds and in different loading conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The interaction between the Achilles tendon and the triceps surae muscles seems to be modulated differently with various task configurations. Here we tested the hypothesis that the increased forces and ankle joint work ... -
Medial gastrocnemius muscle fascicles shorten throughout stance during sprint acceleration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The compliant nature of distal limb muscle-tendon units is traditionally considered suboptimal in explosive movements when positive joint work is required. However, during accelerative running, ankle joint net mechanical ... -
The effect of different global navigation satellite system methods on positioning accuracy in elite alpine skiing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-03)In sport science, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are frequently applied to capture athletes’ position, velocity and acceleration. Application of GNSS includes a large range of different GNSS technologies and ... -
To walk or to run - a question of movement attractor stability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)During locomotion, humans change gait mode between walking and running as locomotion speed is either increased or decreased. Dynamical systems theory predicts that the self-organization of coordinated motor behaviors ...
