Abstract:

Two methods were used in this research. The pedobarograph is a relatively novel method of gait analysis for animals which enables footfall patterns to be recorded, enabling spatial parameters (step length, width and angle) and plantar pressure patterns to be described and measured. A Kistler force plate was then used to measure the three-dimensional ground reaction forces (GRF's) produced during walking. Speed and cadence can be calculated using either system. Gait patterns are described for normal birds, and for different strains of broilers, raised on different feeding regimes. All the gait

Abstract:

This master’s thesis project “Instrumentation of Gait Analysis” was carried out at and funded by Integrum AB, Gothenburg, Sweden. Force analysis is critical during rehabilitation process of amputation patients, since overloading might place the bone-implant interface at risk; while underloading might extend unnecessarily the already long rehabilitation program [1]. Highly developed sensor and data acquisition technology provides an easy and reliable way to do force analysis. This thesis introduces the problem and provides background material regarding Orthotics and Prosthetics, including osseo

Abstract:

Human gait identification has become an active area of research due to increased security requirements. Human gait identification is a potential new tool for identifying individuals beyond traditional methods. The emergence of motion capture techniques provided a chance of high accuracy in identification because completely recorded gait information can be recorded compared with security cameras. The aim of this research was to build a practical method of gait identification and investigate the individual characteristics of gait. For this purpose, a gait identification approach was proposed, id

This thesis analyzes the human action recognition problem. Human actions are modeled as a time evolving temporal texture. Gabor filters, which are proved to be a robust 2D texture representation tool by detecting spatial points with high variation, is extended to 3D domain to capture motion texture features. A well known filtering algorithm and a recent unsupervised clustering algorithm, the Genetic Chromodynamics, are combined to select salient spatio-temporal features of the temporal texture and to segment the activity sequence into temporal texture primitives.

Background: Gait analysis is used to measure objectively the ability to walk before and after hip and knee joint replacement. Most gait literature to date has measured patients walking at slow speeds, which may have unintentionally characterized successful lower limb operations as the same regardless of its operation type. The aim of this thesis was to use an instrumented treadmill to (1) test the upper limits of gait performance of patients awaiting and after lower limb arthroplasty and (2) describe and compare different joint procedures to healthy controls.

Abstract:

One of the unique advantages of human gait is that it can be perceived from a distance. A varied range of research has been undertaken within the field of gait recognition. However, in almost all circumstances subjects have been constrained to walk fronto-parallel to the camera with a single walking speed. In this thesis we show that gait has sufficient properties that allows us to exploit the structure of articulated leg motion within single view sequences, in order to remove the unknown subject pose and reconstruct the underlying gait signature, with no prior knowledge of the camera calibrat

Abstract:

Gait recognition algorithms are being increasingly widely researched, however a common assumption is that the subject will be presented side on to the camera. In practice it may not be possible to capture data from this view, so a useful gait recognition algorithm will have to provide a measure of orientation independence. Three gait recognition algorithms are examined and found to perform poorly with nonnormal orientation. The complex detail used for recognition can not be translated between orientations in a holistic silhouette manner. It is shown that orientation independent features can be

Neuro-musculoskeletal impairments are a substantial burden on our health care system as a consequence of disease, injury or aging. A better understanding of how such impairments influence the skeletal system through muscle force production is needed.

To date, joint moments and EMG measurements are used to deduce on the characteristics of muscle forces, however, known limitations restrain a satisfying analysis of muscle force production.

Human gait is elegant and efficient in propelling the body forward. While a healthy human gait is symmetric, any deviation from symmetry can cause inefficiencies to the entire body.

In this dissertation, practical passive methods to alleviate such asymmetric walking dynamics are presented.
