From Aristotle to Arendt : a phenomenological exploration of forms of knowledge and practice in the context of child protection social work in the UK (2015)
Journal Article

This paper attempts to explore the relationship between different forms of knowledge and the kinds of activity that arise from them within child protection social work practice. The argument that social work is more than either ‘science’ or ‘art’ but...

Impact of elbow angular velocity on muscle activation and coactivation during active elbow extension and supination in children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy (2015)
Journal Article
Sarcher, A., Ballaz, L., Leboeuf, F., Gross, R., Perrouin-Verbe, B., & Raison, M. (2015). Impact of elbow angular velocity on muscle activation and coactivation during active elbow extension and supination in children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Gait & Posture, 42(S1), S18-S19. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2015.06.039

Does the increase of angular velocity cause an increase of agonist and antagonist muscles activation and of coactivation during active elbow extension and supination in the involved upper limb of children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy?

A device for characterising the mechanical properties of the plantar soft tissue of the foot (2015)
Journal Article
Parker, D., Cooper, G., Pearson, S., Crofts, G., Howard, D., Busby, P., & Nester, C. (2015). A device for characterising the mechanical properties of the plantar soft tissue of the foot. Medical Engineering and Physics, 37(11), 1098-1104. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.medengphy.2015.08.008

The plantar soft tissue is a highly functional viscoelastic structure involved in transferring load to the human body during walking. A Soft Tissue Response Imaging Device was developed to apply a vertical compression to the plantar soft tissue whils...
