A comparison of knee braces during walking for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee (2005)
Journal Article
Richards, J., Sanchez-Ballester, J., Jones, R., Darke, N., & Livingstone, B. (2005). A comparison of knee braces during walking for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee. Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, British Volume, 87-B(7), 937-939. https://doi.org/10.1302/0301-620X.87B7.16005

In this cross-over study, we evaluated two types of knee brace commonly used in the conservative treatment of osteoarthritis of the medial compartment. Twelve patients confirmed radiologically as having unilateral osteoarthritis of the medial compart...

Dynamic analysis of load carriage biomechanics during level walking (2005)
Journal Article
Ren, L., Jones, R., & Howard, D. (2005). Dynamic analysis of load carriage biomechanics during level walking. Journal of Biomechanics, 38(4), 853-863. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2004.04.030

This paper describes an investigation into the biomechanical effects of load carriage dynamics on human locomotion performance. A whole body, inverse dynamics gait model has been developed which uses only kinematic input data to define the gait cycle...
