Locomotive Biomechanics Wearing A Simulated Portable Life Support System During Varying Cognitive And Treadmill Grade Conditions, Brittany K. Sanchez, William E. Amonette Mar 2010

Locomotive Biomechanics Wearing A Simulated Portable Life Support System During Varying Cognitive And Treadmill Grade Conditions, Brittany K. Sanchez, William E. Amonette

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Background: The Portable Life Support System (PLSS) worn by astronauts during Extravehicular Activity (EVA) is contained within a backpack. Due to the inherent mass of the PLSS, astronaut center of mass (COM) is altered during ambulation. Recent studies from our laboratory suggest shifts in the COM of the PLSS have minimal effects on exercising metabolism, although differences were observed in trunk angles during ambulation. During EVA, astronauts continuously perform cognitive tasks (CG). Due to the distractive nature of these tasks, safety may be compromised by altered biomechanics. Purpose: To quantify lower extremity kinematics while walking with a simulated PLSS at …


Identifying Central Patterns Of Motor Control In Pathological Gait, John S. Ward Mar 2010

Identifying Central Patterns Of Motor Control In Pathological Gait, John S. Ward

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Introduction: The central pattern generator (CPG) for walking is an open loop system that drives lower limb movements in a relatively rhythmic fashion once motion has started with minimal need for additional afferent input. The role of the CPG in the pathological gait of Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury (ISCI) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) has not been studied thoroughly. Understanding how the CPG contributes to motor control in these special populations will serve as a standard upon which to compare new treatments to improve gait function. The purpose of this study was to identify the expression of CPG patterns in individuals …
