The Application of non-linear methods to quantify changes to movement dynamics during running: A scoping review
Hunter, Ben; Karsten, Bettina; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Burnley, Mark; Muniz, Daniel (2023-06-17)The aim of this scoping review was to evaluate research approaches that quantify changes to non-linear movement dynamics during running in response to fatigue, different speeds, and fitness levels. PubMed and Scopus were ... -
Comparison of Pelvic Complex Kinematics During Treadmill and Overground Walking
Chockalingam, Nachiappan; Chatterley, Faye; Healy, Aoife C; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Branthwaite, Helen R (2012)OBJECTIVES: To determine if there are changes in temporal gait parameters with a focus on pelvis when comparing overground and treadmill ambulation, and to assess the effect of sex. DESIGN: An observational study employing ... -
Determination of gait events using an externally mounted shank accelerometer
Sinclair, Jonathan; Hobbs, Sarah J; Protheroe, Laurence; Edmundson, Christopher J; Greenhalgh, Andrew (2013-02-01)Biomechanical analysis requires the determination of specific foot contact events. This is typically achieved using force platform information; however, when force platforms are unavailable, alternative methods are necessary. ... -
The effect of caffeine ingestion on skill maintenance and fatigue in epee fencers
Bottoms, Lindsay; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Gregory, Kim (2013)The ergogenic effect of caffeine on sports performance focuses predominantly on endurance sports (Doherty & Smith, 2004 ) with little research on intermittent high intensity sports. This study aimed to explore the effect ... -
Fractal Analyses of Gait Variability During a Marathon
Hunter, Benjamin; Karsten, Bettina; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Burnley, Mark; Leuchanka, Aliaksandr; Clark, Tim; Muniz, Daniel (2021-08-06)Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and Higuchi’s fractal dimension (HG) have previously been used to characterise motor control during gait. However, there is limited evidence of either being applied to running gait ... -
Full gait cycle analysis of lower limb and trunk kinematics and muscle activations during walking in participants with and without ankle instability
Northeast, Lynsey; Gautrey, Charlotte; Bottoms, Lindsay; Hughes, Gerwyn; Mitchell, Andrew C; Greenhalgh, Andrew (2018-07-01)Background Chronic ankle instability (CAI) has previously been linked to altered lower limb kinematics and muscle activation characteristics during walking, though little research has been performed analysing the full ... -
Gender differences in the kinematics of distance running : Implications for footwear design
Sinclair, Jonathan; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Edmundson, Christopher; Brooks, Daryl; Hobbs, Sara Jane (2012-06)Interest in distance running amongst females has expanded rapidly. Although there are numerous health benefits associated with running, the occurrence of injury is well documented. Given the relative susceptibility of ... -
The impact of different footwear characteristics, of a ballet flat pump, on centre of pressure progression and perceived comfort
Branthwaite, Helen; Chockalingam, Nachiappan; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Chatzistergos, Panagiotis (2014-09-01)BACKGROUND: Uncomfortable shoes have been attributed to poor fit and the cause of foot pathologies. Assessing and evaluating comfort and fit have proven challenging due to the subjective nature. The aim of this paper is ... -
The influence of different force and pressure measuring transducers on lower extremity kinematics measured during running
Sinclair, Jonathan; Hobbs, Sarah J; Taylor, Paul J; Currigan, Graham; Greenhalgh, Andrew (2014-02-01)In running analyses where both kinetic and kinematic information is recorded, participants are required to make foot contact with a force and/or pressure measuring transducer. Problems arise if participants modify their ... -
Influence of surface on impact shock experienced during a fencing lunge
Greenhalgh, Andrew; Bottoms, Lindsay; Sinclair, Jonathan (2013-08)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of sports surface on the magnitude of impact shock experienced during a lunge movement. Thirteen experienced, competitive fencers (age 32.4 ± 4.6 years; height 178.4 ... -
Kinematic determinants of weapon velocity during the fencing lunge in experienced épée fencers
Bottoms, Lindsay; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Sinclair, Jonathan (2013)The lunge is the most common attack in fencing, however there is currently a paucity of published research investigating the kinematics of this movement. The aim of this study was to investigate if kinematics measured ... -
Medical-grade footwear: : the impact of fit and comfort
Hurst, Bessie; Branthwaite, Helen; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Chockalingam, Nachiappan (2017-01-05)BACKGROUND: Pressure-related skin lesions on the digits are a significant cause of discomfort. Most foot pain related to ill-fitting shoes occurs in the forefoot and digital areas. Pain has been associated with poor shoe ... -
A non-linear analysis of running in the heavy and severe intensity domains
Hunter, Benjamin; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Karsten, Bettina; Burnley, Mark; Muniz, Daniel (2021-02-12)Purpose: Altered movement complexity, indicative of system dysfunction, has been demonstrated with increased running velocity and neuromuscular fatigue. The critical velocity (CV) denotes a metabolic and neuromuscular ... -
Postural differences in the shoulder girdle during normal locomotion in treadmill vs. over ground walking
Chockalingam, Nachiappan; Chatterley, Faye; Greenhalgh, Andrew; Dangerfield, Peter H. (IOS Press, 2006)In a clinical setting, most musculoskeletal assessment related to gait is undertaken using a treadmill which is additionally widely used during gait and neurological rehabilitation. Although previous studies have reported ... -
Predicting impact shock magnitude : which ground reaction force variable should we use?
Greenhalgh, Andrew; Sinclair, Jonathan; Protheroe, Laurence; Chockalingam, Nachiappan (2012-12)Peak tibial acceleration (PTA) measured using accelerometers attached to the musculoskeletal system is considered the most effective method of quantifying impact shock magnitude as a result of footstrike during running. ... -
Tibial shock measured during the fencing lunge : the influence of footwear
Sinclair, Jonathan; Bottoms, Lindsay; Taylor, Katrina; Greenhalgh, Andrew (2010)Fencing is a high-intensity sport involving dynamic movements such as the lunge exposing the musculoskeletal system to high impact forces, which emphasises the importance of the shock attenuating properties of footwear as ...
