Inertial measurement unit and biomechanical analysis of swimming: an update

Kamiar Aminian, Grégoire Millet, Farzin Dadashi

The biomechanical analysis of swimming always faced impeding factors of measurement in the aquatic environment. Our current knowledge of swimming locomotion is very much owing to employing video cameras to capture the body kinematics. Nevertheless, the rec ...

Conjugate momentum estimate using non-linear dynamic model of the sit-to-stand correlates well with accelerometric surface data

Kamiar Aminian, Raluca Lidia Ganea

The purpose of this study was the development of a non-linear double inverted constrained pendulum model for the analysis of the movement of sit-to-stand (STS) transition. Ten able-bodied subjects perform five trials in their natural speed. Kinematics, kin ...

Front-Crawl Propulsive Phase Detection Using Inertial Sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Grégoire Millet, Florent Crettenand

Front crawl is an alternating swimming stroke technique in which different phases of arm movement induce changes in acceleration of limbs and body. This study proposes a new approach to use inertial body worn sensors to estimate main temporal phases of fro ...
