May – June 2014

  • Analyzed data from a gait study of Paralympic runners using MATLAB and Kinovea.

  • Led the design, analysis, build, and test of a treadmill safety system using SolidWorks.

  • Preformed strength testing on carbon fiber running prostheses and pediatric lower limb prostheses using an Instron to help develop a better prescription guide.

This video details the importance of characterizing how the height and stiffness of running prostheses affect an athlete’s performance. I characterized the mechanical properties of the prostheses used in these studies during my time at the Applied Biomechanics Lab.
