Gait Cycle Kinetics and Kinematics – Analysis of Phases, Subdivisions, and Temporal Variables (2023) Jahan

Description

A comprehensive analysis of the human gait cycle, defining gait as the pattern of walking and detailing the cycle’s structure. It covers the two main phases (Stance Phase, 60%; Swing Phase, 40%) and their subdivisions, including Initial Contact, Loading Response, Midstance, Terminal Stance, Pre-swing, Initial Swing, Midswing, and Terminal Swing. The text also defines key temporal parameters, such as single limb support time, double support time, cadence, and walking speed.
