[The individuality of weightbearing-patterns of human gait (author's transl)].
Measurements have been carried out on a quartz-crystal multicomponent platform. The forces exerted by people walking on it could be measured as transverse, horizontal and vertical forces. The total was assessed mit the aid of the components. The torsion-element in the vertical axis was also measured. The patterns varied significantly with individuals. In general, pressures rose with walking speed. Individual patterns of movements, like elastic or stiff gait, showed clear differences. These are explained by the individual dynamic associated movements. These measurements do not permit direct conclusions as to weightbearing, but they demonstrate forces of dynamic movement. They do support the conclusion that static considerations of weightbearing, which omit the likely weightbearing-reducing forces of associated movements of the limbs, will give only a very fragmentary impression.
