The primary aim of the current project was to investigate the isokinetic muscular strength and performance of elite male youth footballers, and the relationships with age, seasonal variation and injury. A secondary aim was to use the information gath... Read More about Isokinetic muscular strength and performance in youth football : relationships with age, seasonal variation and injury.

Biomechanics and quality of life in transtibial amputees during and following rehabilitation : a longitudinal study (2011)
Thesis

Following surgery, amputees must re-learn how to perform various movement tasks using altered lower limb mechanics. In order to optimise the process of re-learning these tasks and inform rehabilitation practice, an understanding of the longitudinal a...

Biomechanical and psychological factors that distinguish fallers from non-fallers : a comparative study of transtibial amputees and able bodied individuals (2009)
Thesis
Vanicek, N. (2009). Biomechanical and psychological factors that distinguish fallers from non-fallers : a comparative study of transtibial amputees and able bodied individuals. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4209371

Transtibial amputees are at a higher risk of falling than age-matched able-bodied individuals. In order to make recommendations for falls prevention and treatment programmes, it is important to have a sound understanding of the underlying biomechanic...
