A large number of volumes have been produced summarizing the work on generation and control of rhythmic movements, in particular locomotion. Unfortunately most of them focus on locomotor studies done on animals. This edited volume redresses that imbalance by focusing completely on human locomotor behaviour. The very nature of the problem has both necessitated and attracted researchers from a wide variety of disciplines ranging from psychology, neurophysiology, kinesiology, engineering, medicine to computer science. The different and unique perspectives they bring to this problem provide a comp

This dissertation by Parinaz Kasebzadeh focuses on the study of human gait patterns to enhance pedestrian navigation, particularly in environments where GNSS is unavailable. The work introduces innovative methods using a multi-rate Kalman filter bank and inertial measurement units (IMUs) to classify gait styles and improve positioning indoors. It addresses the challenges of pedestrian dead reckoning and the classification of motion modes and device poses. The research includes extensive datasets for performance evaluation and has applications in medical diagnostics, particularly for detecting neurological disorders through gait analysis. The intended audience includes researchers and practitioners in electrical engineering and technology fields.

This readable textbook offers a clear and accessible guide to the diagnosis and treatment of patients suffering from medical conditions that affect the way they walk. The book describes both normal and pathological gait and covers the range of simple and complex methods available to perform gait analysis. It will help the reader differentiate the gait cycle phases and pathological gait patterns, identify related factors, and direct therapy precisely. Now in its sixth edition, Whittle's Gait Analysis has been fully updated by a small team of expert contributors to include the latest thinking on methods of gait analysis and its role in the clinic, making it an ideal text for undergraduate students through to practising allied health professionals.

Deux amis se promènent. L'un est philosophe, l'autre neurologue. Ils conversent pour le plaisir, en marchant, durant quatre saisons, dans les champs et les bois. Ils dialoguent librement, sans façons, en cherchant à comprendre ce qui se passe en nous pendant que nous marchons. La marche favorise-t-elle la pensée ? Si oui, pourquoi ? La pensée est-elle comparable à une marche ? Comment le cerveau contrôle-t-il à la fois les mouvements des jambes, l'équilibre et la posture du corps ? Quels rapports entre ces trois caractéristiques de l'espèce humaine : penser, parler, marcher debout ? Chemin faisant, dans des termes simples et précis, ils évoquent enfin les relations entre sciences et philosophie, leur fâcheux divorce, leurs retrouvailles souhaitables. Entre divergences et convergences, leur commune volonté d'y voir clair est communicative. Et leur allégresse vite partagée. Pas à pas. Roger-Pol Droit, philosophe et écrivain, a été chercheur au C.N.R.S. et enseignant à Sciences-Po. Son oeuvre, une quarantaine de livres (recherches, pédagogie, enquêtes, fictions), est traduite en plus de trente langues. Yves Agid est professeur émérite de neurologie et de biologie cellulaire à Sorbonne Université, ancien chef de service (hôpital de la Salpêtrière), membre de l'Académie des sciences, co-fondateur de l'Institut du Cerveau. C'est un spécialiste de l'étude des mécanismes et du traitement des maladies neurodégénératives.

La collection "Petite philosophie du voyage" invite ÉmericFisset, éditeur et écrivain-voyageur, à confier sa passion pour la marche. Le voyage à pied, par sa lenteur, sa simplicité et ladisponibilité d'esprit qu'il engendre, permet d'apprécier ledétail d'un paysage, de communier avec la nature, de se porterau-devant des hommes et de se dépasser.
