“…According to the WHO, 75% of people have some pathological changes in the feet, which the most common is flat feet (changes in the shape of foot, that is characterized by a decrease in the height of its transverse and longitudinal arches). This deformity is the cause of many serious MSS diseases, which often lead to disability [2,3].…”

“…With foot flat-valgus deformity, in addition to muscle weakness and ligaments, the shape and foot bones ratio are disturbed, the reference vector is displaced laterally (to foot outer edge). This changes the nature of gait, is the cause of increasing the dynamic load on the entire musculoskeletal system [2].…”

“…There is baropodometry method, which allows you to objectify the research of biomechanical parameters of foot, taking into account the static and dynamic components. This allows for more in-depth research of locomotions and to detect a certain frequency of identical or pressure similar images, which don`t fully correspond to the known metatarsal formula [1][2][3][4][5]. Thus, the research for biomechanics of the lower extremities in norm and at various deformations is necessary and very promising in terms of assessing the state by MSS and forecasting its dynamics.…”

“…Analysis of human gait is subject by many scientific studies. Various diseases and injuries of supporting organs are often accompanied by serious functional disorders of musculoskeletal system, decreased muscle strength and tone, loss of ability to normal movements, which ultimately leads to disability and subsequent disability [2,3]. The foot is structural segment in musculoskeletal system, which provides it`s stomato-motor function, and is integral morphofunctional object that human motor function depends [2].…”

The leading place among diseases of the musculoskeletal system is occupied by various feet deformations. Clinical movement analysis and posturological examination are required to objectively assess the distribution for load caused by the weight of human body on the feet and its locomotion effect. In normal conditions, the foot is exposed to elastic deformations. When analyzing the foot loads, it`s necessary to consider shock loads as one of dynamic load types. The foot is the first to perceive the shock impulse by support reaction, and the further nature for interaction with the environment directly depends on its functional capabilities. However, the foot supporting properties haven`t been fully researched. The purpose for this research is to increase the accuracy of estimating the human foot biomechanical parameters, by assessing the dynamic impact, namely short-term shock loads by step cycle relevant phases. This goal is solved by developing a method of staticdynamic load analysis, which allows to estimate dynamic and shock loads on foot and is reduced to determining the capacity coefficients, dynamic and shock loads. In the course of studies, conducted in this research, it was found that the maximum contact per unit time has front section (repulsion phase), then -the rear section (landing phase) and the smallest -the foot middle section (rolling phase), the greater speed and length stepso the greater shock loads coefficient, and their peak falls on the front and rear sections. The practical significance of the obtained results is to improve the existing methods of researching biomechanical parameters by comprehensively assessing by standing and gait features, foot step cycle and support properties.
