      Human walking exhibits properties of both stability and variability. On the one hand, the variability of the interval of time between heel strikes is autocorrelated, i.e., not randomly organized. On the other hand, walking is highly stereotyped and arguments from general mechanics suggest that the stability of gait can be assessed according to invariant properties. This study aims at proposing ...

      Voluntary human movements are stereotyped. When modeled in the framework of classical mechanics they are expected to minimize cost functions that may include energy, a natural candidate from a physiological point of view also. In time-changing environments, however, energy is no longer conserved—regardless of frictional energy dissipation—and it is therefore not the preferred candidate for any cost ...

      Article scientifique
      Indices characterising the long-range temporal structure of walking stride interval (SI) variability such as Hurst exponent (H) and fractal dimension (D) may be used in addition to indices measuring the amount of variability like the coefficient of variation (CV). We assess the added value of the former indices in a clinical neurological context. Our aim is to demonstrate that they provide a clinical ...

      Comme tous les systèmes dynamiques, l’Homme est soumis aux lois de la mécanique. Il n’est toutefois pas réductible à une machine comme les autres : il est biologique, psychologique et social ! La douleur, définie comme une expérience sensorielle et émotionnelle désagréable associée à une lésion tissulaire réelle ou non, est une composante de nature complexe. Elle se manifeste notamment dans les ...

      Article scientifique
      Les jeunes danseurs amateurs semblent utiliser majoritairement l’étirement statique. Or, la littérature montre également l’efficacité de l’étirement dynamique sur la performance des sportifs. L’un de ces étirements est-il dès lors plus favorable à l’exécution de deux mouvements de danse classique, le grand battement et développé ? Seize participants ont réalisé ces mouvements dans trois conditions ...

      wo previous studies showed kinematic differences between novice and experienced performers during unchoreographed movements executed in standing position. However, no study explores if these kinematic differences holds during unchoreographed movements executed in quadrupedal position. The aim of this study is to compare the movement behaviour of experienced and novice performers during an exercise ...

    • Diffusion in Phase Space as a Tool to Assess Variability of Vertical Centre-of-Mass Motion during Long-Range WalkingPeer reviewedOpen access

      Article scientifique
      When a Hamiltonian system undergoes a stochastic, time-dependent anharmonic perturbation, the values of its adiabatic invariants as a function of time follow a distribution whose shape obeys a Fokker–Planck equation. The effective dynamics of the body’s centre-of-mass during human walking is expected to represent such a stochastically perturbed dynamical system. By studying, in phase space, the ...

      Digital natives developed in an electronic dual tasking world. This paper addresses two questions. Do digital natives respond differently under a cognitive load realized during a locomotor task in a dual-tasking paradigm and how does this address the concept of safety? We investigate the interplay between cognitive (talking and solving Raven’s matrices) and locomotor (walking on a treadmill) tasks ...

      Various noninvasive measurement devices can be used to assess cervical motion. The size, complexity, and cost of gold-standard systems make them not suited to clinical practice, and actually difficult to use outside a dedicated laboratory. Nowadays, ultra-low-cost inertial measurement units are available, but without any packaging or a user-friendly interface. The so-called DYSKIMOT is a home-designed, ...

      Locomotion is a natural task that has been assessed for decades and used as a proxy to highlight impairments of various origins. So far, most studies adopted classical linear analy- ses of spatio-temporal gait parameters. Here, we use more advanced, yet not less practical, non-linear techniques to analyse gait time series of healthy subjects. We aimed at finding more sensitive indexes related to ...
