Relationships between glide efficiency and swimmers' size and shape characteristics (2012)
Journal Article
Naemi, R., Psycharakis, S. G., McCabe, C., Connaboy, C., & Sanders, R. H. (2012). Relationships between glide efficiency and swimmers' size and shape characteristics. Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 28(4), 400-411. https://doi.org/10.1123/jab.28.4.400

Glide efficiency, the ability of a body to minimize deceleration over the glide, can change with variations in the body’s size and shape. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between glide efficiency and the size and shape c...

Validation of a multi-segment spinal model for kinematic analysis and a comparison of different data processing techniques (2012)
Journal Article
Needham, R., Chockalingam, N., Naemi, R., Shannon, T., & Healy, A. (2012). Validation of a multi-segment spinal model for kinematic analysis and a comparison of different data processing techniques. https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-61499-067-3-151

Optoelectronic motion capture technology is a useful tool in the quantitative dynamic assessment of the spine. In a clinical setting this may help gain a further understanding of underlining musculoskeletal pathology. It is therefore important that a...

The effect of three different toe props on plantar pressure and patient comfort (2012)
Journal Article
Johnson, S., Branthwaite, H., Naemi, R., & Chockalingam, N. (2012). The effect of three different toe props on plantar pressure and patient comfort. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 5(1), 22. https://doi.org/10.1186/1757-1146-5-22

Background Arthritic toe pathologies frequently lead to the development of painful apical pressure skin lesions that can compromise gait and affect quality of life. Historically conservative treatments involve the use of a toe prop with the intended... Read More about The effect of three different toe props on plantar pressure and patient comfort.

Development of a method for quantifying the midsole reaction model parameters (2012)
Journal Article
Naemi, R., & Chockalingam, N. (2013). Development of a method for quantifying the midsole reaction model parameters. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 16(12), 1273-1277. https://doi.org/10.1080/10255842.2012.666795

Midsole force–deformation pattern has important implications in determining the kinematics and kinetics of foot during locomotion. Furthermore, the midsole stiffness and viscosity determine the midsole's force–deformation behaviour. Despite the impor...

The effect of the use of a walkway and the choice of the foot on plantar pressure assessment when using pressure platforms (2012)
Journal Article
Naemi, R., Larose Chevalier, T., Healy, A., & Chockalingam, N. (2012). The effect of the use of a walkway and the choice of the foot on plantar pressure assessment when using pressure platforms. Foot, 22(2), 100-104. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foot.2012.01.004

Background Plantar pressure assessment is routinely used in a clinical setting for diagnosing foot problems and prescribing orthoses or footwear. Despite this, the measurement procedures and protocols that might have an effect on the results are not...
