The maintenance of balance and body orientation during stance is essential for performing different activities. The aim of this study was to describe the development of a non-commercial, low-cost device to measure human dynamic equilibrium through both biomechanical parameters: Ground Reaction Force (GRF) and displacement of the Center of Pressure...
PurposeThe main aim of the present study was to describe the development of a non-commercial biomechanical system designed for the simultaneous measurement of kinematic and kinetic parameters during a lower limb pointing task. The task was performed by two groups of soccer players (10 novices and 10 experts, aged 16-19 years) and the differences be...
Purpose
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of muscular fatigue on the interaction between posture and movement during a lower limb pointing task.
Methods
Participants (n = 16), aged 18–30 years, kicked a ball toward a target in four conditions of fatigue: No muscular fatigue (NF), fatigue in the kicking (FM) or postural li...
One of the challenges regarding human motor control is making the movement fluid and at a limited cognitive cost. The coordination between posture and movement is a necessary requirement to perform daily life tasks. The present experiment investigated this interaction in 20 adult men, aged 18–30 years. The cognitive costs associated to postural and...
Methods
A force platform, developed according to International Standards of Measurement and dedicated to measuring feet contact forces was built for approximately one tenth of the cost of commercial platforms. Calibration was performed by loading known masses, centralized or distributed, on the platform. An experimental study was conducted with fou...
Resumo
A coordenação entre postura e movimento é um requisito necessário para realizar tarefas diárias. Neste sentido, o presente experimento investigou esta interação, usando o paradigma da dupla-tarefa (DT), com o objetivo de identificar as estratégias aplicadas durante um movimento de precisão no futebol, por meio da análise dos parâmetros bio...
The balance ability during task kick in soccer is a determining factor in the execution of functional movements that require a high-performance motor coordination. The current experiment explored it during an instep soccer kick and functional task kicking. Their kicking performance was measured in terms of the sway characteristics using lateral and...
RESUMO: O remate é um gesto técnico bastante estudado no futebol. A precisão do remate no futebol é importante durante a competição, e depende da perna de apoio. O objetivo deste estudo consisitiu em analisar o comportamento da perna de apoio durante o remate com o dorso do pé; analisando o equilibrio dinâmico antes e durante o remate através de da...
RESUMO: Atualmente observa-se um crescimento no uso do calçado de salto alto e estudos mostram que o uso do salto alto implica em várias alterações na biomecânica dos pés; diversos estudos acrescentam ainda que, além das alterações posturais geradas pelo salto alto o uso continuo do mesmo pode levar a uma mudança na mecânica da coluna. O objetivo d...
The aim of this study was to develop an efficient system to measure the biomechanical parameters, in this specific case, the tibial acceleration and the center of pressure (COP) applied to soccer players. Through this study we verify important variations of the COP displacement associated to tibial acceleration during a soccer kicking.
The kicking motion was evaluated with kinetic and kinematic experimental data. It is known that single-leg balance ability predicts a better kicking performance on the other leg. The current experiment explored it during an instep soccer kick. Four skilled junior soccer players kicked a soccer ball into a frontal target which was 9 meters away from...

Hi,
I need of papers which deal directly with proprioception and postural control. Indeed, I seek a correlation between proprioception and ankle fatigue. In this way, I need papers which deal directly with the following parameters: COP and COM displacements in both directions, besides the analysis of muscular signal of dominant limb measured by EMG activity.
Thanks a lot.
Hi,
I need of papers which deal directly with proprioception and postural control. Indeed, I seek a correlation between proprioception and ankle fatigue. This analysis will be made through on a force platform (COP analysis), in two different conditions of platform: stable and unstable.
Thanks
Hi,
I need of papers which deal directly with proprioception and postural control through a balance board. I seek a correlation between proprioception and ankle fatigue applied on a force platform (COP analysis), in two different conditions: stable (only a force platform), and no-stable (with the balance board). The participants will can remained on unipedal or bipodal stance.
Preferably, recent papers in this area, please. Applied to clinical studies, to women (20 - 40 years old).
Thanks.
Hi,
I need recent papers which deal directly with this following subject: Construction and calibration of a low-cost force platform developed to biomechanical parameters analysis (GRF and COP).
Thanks a lot.
I need recent papers which deal directly with this subject = Thermography. Preferably papers produced in the last 10 years, applied exclusively to health domain science (clinic or sports), and written in english.
Thanks a lot.
