Invasive in vivo measurement of rear-, mid- and forefoot motion during walking (2008)
Journal Article
Lundgren, P., Nester, C., Liu, A., Arndt, A., Jones, R., Stacoff, A., …Lundberg, A. (2008). Invasive in vivo measurement of rear-, mid- and forefoot motion during walking. Gait & Posture, 28(1), 93-100. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2007.10.009

The aim of this work was to use bone anchored external markers to describe the kinematics of the tibia, fibula, talus, calcaneus, navicular, cuboid, medial cuneiform, first and fifth metatarsals during gait. Data were collected from six subjects. The... Read More about Invasive in vivo measurement of rear-, mid- and forefoot motion during walking.

Functional units of the human foot (2008)
Journal Article
Wolf, P., Stacoff, A., Liu, A., Nester, C., Arndt, A., Lundberg, A., & Stuessi, E. (2008). Functional units of the human foot. Gait & Posture, 28(3), 434-441. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2008.02.004

Functional units in the human foot provide a meaningful basis for subdivisions of the entire foot during gait analysis as well as justified simplifications of foot models. The present study aimed to identify such functional units during walking and... Read More about Functional units of the human foot.

An instance-based algorithm with auxiliary similarity information for the estimation of gait kinematics from wearable sensors. (2008)
Journal Article
Goulermas, J., Findlow, A., Nester, C., Liatsis, P., Zeng, X., Kenney, L., …Howard, D. (2008). An instance-based algorithm with auxiliary similarity information for the estimation of gait kinematics from wearable sensors. IEEE transactions on neural networks / a publication of the IEEE Neural Networks Council, 19(9), 1574-1582. https://doi.org/10.1109/TNN.2008.2000808

Wearable human movement measurement systems are increasingly popular as a means of capturing human movement data in real-world situations. Previous work has attempted to estimate segment kinematics during walking fromfoot acceleration and angular ve...

The influence of gluteus maximus on transverse plane tibial rotation (2008)
Journal Article
Preece, S., Graham-Smith, P., Nester, C., Howard, D., Hermens, H., Herrington, L., & Bowker, P. (2008). The influence of gluteus maximus on transverse plane tibial rotation. Gait & Posture, 27, 616-621. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2007.08.007

There is a common clinical belief that transverse plane tibial rotation is controlled by the rearfoot. Although distal structures may influence the motion of the tibia, transverse plane tibial rotation could be determined by the proximal hip musculat...

An interpretive phenomenological study of user experiences of therapeutic footwear (2008)
Thesis
Williams, A. An interpretive phenomenological study of user experiences of therapeutic footwear. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

Therapeutic footwear is provided to patients with the primary aims of reducing foot pain and improving foot health. Therefore, it is of concern that patients choose not to wear it. This choice has been attributed to its poor appearance. However, the... Read More about An interpretive phenomenological study of user experiences of therapeutic footwear.

Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt (2008)
Journal Article
Preece, S., Willan, P., Nester, C., Graham-Smith, P., Herrington, L., & Bowker, P. (2008). Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt. Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy, 113-117

Pelvic tilt is often quantified using the angle between the horizontal and a line connecting the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). Although this angle is determined by the balance of muscular and liga... Read More about Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt.
