The effects of heel height, shoe volume and upper stiffness on shoe comfort and plantar pressure
Thesis
Melvin, J. The effects of heel height, shoe volume and upper stiffness on shoe comfort and plantar pressure. (Thesis). University of Salford

The research in this thesis investigated the independent effects of changing heel height, forefoot shoe volume and upper material stiffness on plantar pressures and comfort in ladies raised heel shoes. Plantar pressure is widely associated with comfo... Read More about The effects of heel height, shoe volume and upper stiffness on shoe comfort and plantar pressure.

Improving the design of the curved rocker shoe for people with diabetes
Thesis
Chapman, J. Improving the design of the curved rocker shoe for people with diabetes. (Thesis). University of Salford

Introduction Foot ulceration and re-ulceration are a serious problem in people with diabetes as the outcome can be lower limb amputation, reducing quality of life and increasing mortality. The pathogenesis of foot ulceration is multifactorial with n... Read More about Improving the design of the curved rocker shoe for people with diabetes.

Investigation of the podiatric model of foot biomechanics
Thesis
Jarvis, H. Investigation of the podiatric model of foot biomechanics. (Thesis). University of Salford

Abstract Background: Understanding the biomechanical function of the normal human foot is essential so to be able to determine the parameters of what is the abnormal or pathological foot. The current model used in podiatry to describe the normal bio... Read More about Investigation of the podiatric model of foot biomechanics.
