Brisk walking is a highly recommended physical activity for healthy community-dwelling older adults. This paper studies how muscle coordination differs between older women and men during brisk walking through principal component analysis. doi.org/10.1177/095441… #electromyography

The magnitude and duration of muscle force production are influenced by the fiber type proportion. In this study, surface EMG signals of muscles with varied fiber type proportions are generated. A method to calculate the motor unit size factor is proposed. doi.org/10.1177/095441…

Numerical models can assess the stability of lateral hinges in high tibial osteotomy, but accurate stress prediction may not be possible. This study investigated effect of a heterogeneous versus four homogeneous models on the results of stress and force. doi.org/10.1177/095441…
