Abstract Aim The aim of the study was to examine the capability of accelerometers to estimate energy expenditure during high-intensity complex physical activity patterns. Also, to investigate whether placing the monitor on the hip or wrist influenced its prediction ability. Furthermore, the purpose was also to evaluate if there was a significant difference in the aforementioned estimations using data from one axis compared to all three axis combined.     Method A total of 14 subjects, eight men and six women, mean (SD) age of 26, 4 (5,5) years were recruited for the study.

Abstract (sommario):
The thesis is concerned with objectively measuring human physical activity through accelerometry, and compares the effectiveness of algorithms between obese and non-obese groups. The thesis comprises three studies: Classification of Aerobic and Gym-based Exercises from Accelerometer Output. This study investigated whether accurate classification could be achieved from hip- or ankle-mounted accelerometers for a programme of aerobic exercises and free-living activities. It also examined whether accuracy was affected by obesity, and whether a single classifier could be applied across BMI groups.

Abstract (sommario):
The accurate measurement of total energy expenditure is a cornerstone of metabolic research. However, there is a lack of measurement methods that are valid, objective, inexpensive, and easy to use. Accelerometry, along with validated prediction equations for resting energy requirements, may provide an opportunity to fill this void. Twenty weight stable adults (12 female, 8 male) who recently participated in a controlled feeding study comprised the study sample. Total energy requirements were assessed from the controlled feeding period in which weight stability was achieved using the intake

Mestrado em Fisioterapia<br>Background: Practicing physical activity (PA) has shown to present health benefits at all ages, namely in paediatrics. There are several methods to evaluate PA, however the most frequently used are the self-report questionnaires and accelerometry. The latter is an objective measuring tool, however it requires the use of relatively expensive devices. Questionnaires are easy and quick to apply, and therefore a useful tool to evaluate PA. Despite the existence of some questionnaires to evaluate PA in adolescents, there is still none validated against accelerometr

This thesis addresses the hypothesis that a single, waist-mounted triaxial accelerometer (TA) can be used to monitor human movement patterns in unsupervised, freeliving subjects over extended periods, and that it can be used to quantitatively measure parameters that can provide clinical insight into the health status of the subject. A rigorous theoretical and experimental understanding of the signals obtained from a TA is developed.

Contemporary research into training load in team sports primarily focusses on the physiological load demands, whereas the biomechanical load still remains largely unexplored. While the former refers to the work-energy relationship when the players move around the pitch, the latter refers to the external forces the players are exposed to from their movements around the pitch. Monitoring of the biomechanical load helps practitioners estimate the stresses on an athlete’s musculoskeletal structures as a consequence of the external forces acting on their body.

Animal movement is a ubiquitous process and can have consequences ranging from an individual’s energy expenditure to ecosystem dynamics.

Accelerometers record the acceleration of an instrumented animal to give an indication of their behaviour and movements, yet their output can be particularly difficult to interpret.

Abstract (sommario):
Psychological well-being occurs when there is an absence of mental disorders and presence of positive states. Given the increasing prevalence of mental disorders, which are thought to have their roots in childhood, improving psychological well-being in children is currently an important area of research. Physical activity has been proposed as a method by which negative states can be reduced and positive states increased, thereby increasing children’s overall psychological well-being and in turn helping to protect against a decline into clinical disorders. Research focusing on physical activity

Abstract (sommario):
Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) provide a means for analysing running gait in the field without the need for extensive lab-based equipment. These sensors have been validated for use on the lower limbs and lumbosacral region but have not been extensively validated at other body regions. In team-sport, athletes commonly wear global navigation satellite system (GNSS) units on the thoracic spine to quantify distance and speed. These GNSS units also contain IMUs which may allow the measurement of running gait characteristics, such as contact time, step length and vertical stiffness (Kvert), that

Abstract (sommario):
A better understanding of the association of the environment to young children's physical activity is needed to design effective behavioral interventions and to improve communities' infrastructures in ways that support the development of healthy behaviors. This thesis used data from the Iowa Bone Development Study (IBDS) to examine activity behaviors of young children in urban and rural Iowa. Mean daily minutes of moderate through vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and vigorous physical activity (VPA), as recorded by accelerometry-based physical activity monitoring in the IBDS, were compared by

Abstract (sommario):
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients are generally more sedentary and less physically active than healthy adults; putting them at increased risk of hospitalisation and death. For patients with mild-moderate COPD, physical activity appears to be reduced compared with apparently healthy adults but differences in time spent sedentary are less well established. Additionally, there is a need for a greater understanding of the correlates of behaviour in mild-moderate patients with much of the existing literature focusing on more severe or mixed stage patient samples and with many st

Abstract (sommario):
The high-performance accelerometers with micro-gravity resolution and large dynamic range at very low frequencies are not only used in GPS-augmented inertial navigation, monitoring of aircrafts and space station, but also used in monitoring wind turbines for green energy. This dissertation presents the design and development of a mixed-signal, low-noise, and fourth-order sigma-delta interface circuit for the MEMS capacitive micro-gravity accelerometer. A fully-differential switched-capacitor (SC) amplifier architecture is developed with the low-frequency noise reduction through the integration

Abstract (sommario):
A monitoração objetiva da atividade física traz grandes benefícios para a medicina veterinária, tanto em animais de estimação quanto de produção, por ser considerada um indicador de saúde e bem-estar animal. Conhecer o padrão natural de movimentação dos animais traz a possibilidade de correlacionar processos como dor ou estresse com uma eventual mudança de comportamento. Atualmente, os acelerômetros estão sendo amplamente utilizados para monitorar a atividade física de maneira objetiva, pois são dispositivos eletrônicos pequenos que permitem quantificar a frequência, duração e intensidade da a
