Trying to use temporal and kinematic parameters for the classification in wheelchair badminton Open
Introduction This study explores the potential for the temporal and kinematic datas link to propulsion technique and athlete performance collected here to contribute to evidence-based classification for wheelchair badminton athletes. Mater…
Handrim Reaction Force and Moment Assessment Using a Minimal IMU Configuration and Non-Linear Modeling Approach during Manual Wheelchair Propulsion Open
Manual wheelchair propulsion represents a repetitive and constraining task, which leads mainly to the development of joint injury in spinal cord-injured people. One of the main reasons is the load sustained by the shoulder joint during the…
Impact of holding a badminton racket on temporal and kinematic parameters during manual wheelchair propulsion based on forward and backward propulsion Open
Introduction: This study evaluates the impact of a badminton racket on forward and backward propulsion in wheelchair badminton, aiming to discern if this impact varies between propulsion directions. Materials and Methods: Nineteen experien…
Impacts of Developmental Coordination Disorder on Postural Control Mechanisms in Children and Early Adolescents Open
Several studies have demonstrated balance impairments in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). However, a recent meta-analysis reports that none of the existing studies investigated the entire construct of balance across…

Tracking the whole-body centre of mass while seated in a wheelchair using motion capture Open
Estimating the position of the whole-body centre of mass (CoM) based on skin markers and anthropometric tables requires tracking the pelvis and lower body, which is impossible for wheelchair users due to occlusion. In this work, we present…
Impact of Holding a Badminton Racket on Spatio-Temporal and Kinetic Parameters During Manual Wheelchair Propulsion Open
Introduction Para badminton entered the Paralympic world for the first time with the 2021 Paralympic Games in Tokyo. The particularity of this sport lies in the handling of the wheelchair and the racket simultaneously. To the best of our k…
Impact of Sprinting and Dribbling on Shoulder Joint and Pushrim Kinetics in Wheelchair Basketball Athletes Open
Background While wheelchair basketball is one of the most popular Paralympic sports, it eventually causes shoulder problems and pain in many athletes. However, shoulder kinetics has never been assessed during propulsion in wheelchair baske…
Power output and energy cost: crucial measures to understand motor skill learning in handrim wheelchair propulsion Open
BACKGROUND: This current opinion is a call for standardization of measurements of manual wheeling ability among larger and diverse populations to support our understanding of motor control and learning. VIEW OF THE PAST: Handrim wheelchair…
Sprint performance and force application of tennis players during manual wheelchair propulsion with and without holding a tennis racket Open
The objective of this exploratory research is to study the impact of holding a tennis racket while propelling a wheelchair on kinetic and temporal parameters in a field-based environment. 13 experienced wheelchair tennis players with disab…
Kinetics Toolkit: An Open-Source Python Package to Facilitate Research in Biomechanics Open
Kinetics Toolkit is a Python package for generic biomechanical analysis of human motion that is easily accessible by new programmers.The only prerequisite for using this toolkit is having minimal to moderate skills in Python and Numpy.Whil…
Interpreting the Tilt-Torsion Method to Express Shoulder Joint Kinematics Open
Background: Kinematics is studied by practitioners and researchers in different fields of practice. It is therefore critically important to adhere to a taxonomy that explicitly describes positions and movements. However, current representa…
