Fig. 1. A schematic diagram of the linked segment model used to calculate joint
moments, power and work. (A) The internal angles that were measured. Angles
(
) were measured at hip (h), knee (k), ankle (a) and metatarsophalageal
joint (MP). (B) Elements of the linked segment model used in the inverse
dynamics calculations, where m is the mass of each segment,
I is the mass moment of inertia of each segment and
Fx and Fy are the horizontal and
vertical ground reaction forces (GRF), respectively. The center of pressure of
the GRF on the foot was determined by the force plate.
