Thanks to @jbiomech.bsky.social for highlighting our recent article on how people modulate stride frequency in walking, led by @russell-t-johnson.bsky.social #BiomechSky
😃 A new article published in J Biomech by Johnson & Umberger shows that walking at different stride frequencies at a fixed speed alters kinematics and GRFs, which are driven by coordinating by muscle-tendon mechanics.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled doom scrolling to bring you an interesting and useful biomechanics thread, like we used to have on the bird site back in the day...

Ok, sky help me out here. If doing inverse kinematics using IMUs, is really only the orientation of the sensors used? It would seem that if you have a reasonable estimate of pos of sensor on segment, given kinematic chain, you would also know acc, and hence, could use that info for better fit. 1/2

Is it me, or the train moving?
We use vision to maintain balance. Just close your eyes while standing on one leg and you typically feel less stable. But if we use vision, how come we do not fall when looking at a moving visual reference, e.g. a train?

😃 A new article published in J Biomech by Bolsterlee et al explores how the force-generating properties of animal muscles are scaled to human muscles, and for how the functional capacity of muscles is predicted from muscle architecture.
