๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Gourgoulis et al. show that breaststroke lower-limb kinematics adapt to swimming intensity primarily through a temporal reorganization of phase durations and coordination timing, rather than substantial changes in joint ranges of motion. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/tIaPv5r

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Chafetz et al. indicate that markerless motion capture is suitable for analyses emphasizing sagittal deviations but remains limited for applications requiring axial or frontal-plane estimation in children with complex gait patterns. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/o7n4hYm

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Yanagida et al. suggest that changes in RF length induced by hip-joint manipulation produce site-dependent mechanical responses in the VL, potentially implying the existence of epimuscular myofascial force transmission in men. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/7zvPVeO

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Yamamoto et al. demonstrate a qualitative spatialโ€“temporal association between flow-induced high-frequency wall vibrations and growth of the VBDA, supporting the hypothesis that wall vibrations may act as a mechanobiological stimulus. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/eyidQzh

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Xu et al. suggest that the Achilles tendonโ€™s complex multiscale architecture is key to its unique mechanical function, yet most current repair strategies and scaffolds fail to recapitulate these features, leading to poor clinical outcomes. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/U8AX4u5

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Karbalaie et al. suggest that machine learning models can classify fear of re-injury after ACLR with very high accuracy, using EMG-derived features alone and additional improvements in a multimodal approach integrating biomechanical data. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/UvdH2Tz

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Bruna-Lรกzaro et al. suggest that added weight induced changes across impact-related acceleration variables in both time and frequency domains, whereas cadence and the interaction between both factors showed more limited overall effects. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/AoD9au4

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Chen et al. suggest that rehabilitation aimed at restoring walking in stroke patients should focus on improving coordination of the unaffected hipโ€“knee joints and the affected limb to reduce fall risk across different walking conditions. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/NT7WwRY

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Sรกndor et al. demonstrate how hydrodynamic resistance measurements can be integrated into an in silico flow diverters treatment framework. These correction methods can guide the development of standardized procedures for measurement rigs. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/xXZPCMd

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Mercier et al. indicate that the presence of markers in training images can affect human pose estimation algorithms. The presence of markers creates a significant training bias, particularly for markers located near joint centers. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/Kuem5oS

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Hisano et al. show that unilateral lower-limb prosthesis users achieve ML impulses that offset gravity during walking on a 10% slope, as in able-bodied controls. The way they achieved balance differed by amputation level and position. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/GQkSo9a

๐Ÿ˜ƒ In a new article published in J Biomech, Liu et al. found that, regardless of whether people post-stroke led with the non-paretic or paretic limb, the swing phase of the paretic limb shows reduced limb-obstacle distance and increased COM-COP distance, eliciting risk of falling. ๐Ÿ‘€ buff.ly/j5BcG23
