- Additional information
- Research on forces from an individual pedestrian led to this first known use of body-worn wireless inertia measurement units to capture simultaneously pedestrian locations and the forces they exert on the ground outside laboratory. This has been a key goal in biomechanics, human movement and vibration serviceability, and creates opportunities to move from lab-based to real-world investigation of human stability and locomotion. Research was presented as keynote at Footbridge 2018 and was basis of the first author’s £500k fellowship from Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange. Results also being applied by internationally leading teams from China (cejchen@tongji.edu.cn) and Italy (vitomir.racic@polimi.it).
