Detailed information about the biomechanical behaviour of plantar heel pad tissue contributes to our understanding of load transfer when the foot impacts the ground. The objective of this work was to obtain the hyperelastic and viscoelastic material...

Validity and repeatability of three in-shoe pressure measurement systems (2016)
Journal Article
Price, C., Parker, D., & Nester, C. (2016). Validity and repeatability of three in-shoe pressure measurement systems. Gait & Posture, 46, 69-74. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2016.01.026

In-shoe pressure measurement devices are used in research and clinic to quantify plantar foot pressures. Various devices are available, differing in size, sensor number and type; therefore accuracy and repeatability. Three devices (Medilogic, Tekscan...
