“…The accelerometer characteristics were as follows: mass: 20 milligrams, resolution: 70 mg, with digital output (SPI-compatible). The breakout board (dimensions: 21 × 13 mm) was fitted in a shrink socket [12]. The total mass was less than 3 grams, making it lighter than commercially available sensors in a plastic housing that have been used for the registration of tibial acceleration during running [2][3][4].…”

“…Post hoc inspection of the values of axial peak tibial acceleration revealed that the selected measurement range was more than enough for the goal of our study (Figure 4). The tibial skin was prestretched bilaterally at ~8 cm superior to each medial malleolus to minimize skin oscillation [9,12]. An illustration of such prestretch through the use of zinc oxide tape (Strappal, Smith and Nephew, UK) is shown in Figure 2.…”

The axial axis of an accelerometer was visually aligned with the longitudinal axis of each shin while the subject was standing [12,29].

A method is presented for detecting changes in the axial peak tibial acceleration while adapting to self-discovered lower-impact running. Ten runners with high peak tibial acceleration were equipped with a wearable auditory biofeedback system. They ran on an athletic track without and with real-time auditory biofeedback at the instructed speed of 3.2 m·s −1 . Because inter-subject variation may underline the importance of individualized retraining, a change-point analysis was used for each subject. The tuned change-point application detected major and subtle changes in the time series. No changes were found in the no-biofeedback condition. In the biofeedback condition, a first change in the axial peak tibial acceleration occurred on average after 309 running gait cycles (3 40"). The major change was a mean reduction of 2.45 g which occurred after 699 running gait cycles (8 04") in this group. The time needed to achieve the major reduction varied considerably between subjects. Because of the individualized approach to gait retraining and its relatively quick response due to a strong sensorimotor coupling, we want to highlight the potential of a stand-alone biofeedback system that provides real-time, continuous, and auditory feedback in response to the axial peak tibial acceleration for lower-impact running.

Lower extremity injuries are prevalent in military trainees, especially in female and older trainees. Modifiable factors that lead to higher injury risk in these subgroups are not clear. The purpose of this study was to identify whether external loading variables during military‐relevant tasks differ by age and sex in U.S. Army trainees. Data was collected on 915 trainees in the first week of Basic Combat Training. Participants performed running and ruck marching (walking with 18.1 kg pack) on a treadmill, as well as double‐/single‐leg drop landings. Variables included: vertical force loading rates, vertical stiffness, first peak vertical forces, peak vertical and resultant tibial accelerations. Comparisons were made between sexes and age groups (young, ≤19 years; middle, 20–24 years; older, ≥25 years). Significant main effects of sex were found, with females showing higher vertical loading rates during ruck marching, and peak tibial accelerations during running and ruck marching (p ≤ 0.03). Males showed higher vertical stiffness during running and peak vertical tibial accelerations during drop landings (p < 0.01). A main effect of age was found for vertical loading rates during running (p = 0.03), however no significant pairwise differences were found between age groups. These findings suggest that higher external loading may contribute to higher overall injury rates in female trainees. Further, higher stiffness during running may contribute to specific injuries, such as Achilles Tendinopathy, that are more prevalent in males. The lack of differences between age groups suggests that other factors contribute more to higher injury rates in older trainees.
