Variable stiffness orthosis for gait normalization in patients with toe walking
… DMD patients tend to walk on their tip toes because of their weak calf muscles and currently do not have many options for managing the fatigue induced by supporting most of the foot strike impact with the ball of their feet. Patients with Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) suffer from similar …

The effect of ageing on the control of toe clearance during walking
… populations. The average distance between the toe and the ground surface is approximately 1.3cm at the event where the toe reaches a minimum clearance height during leg swing of walking (Winter 1991, Begg et al. 2007). Little is known about how the lower limbs are controlled and coordinated to …

Nontraditional Positional Games: New methods and boards for playing Tic-Tac-Toe
… dissertation we explore variations on Tic-Tac-Toe. We consider positional games played using a new type of move called a hop. A hop involves two parts: move and replace. In a hop the positions occupied by both players will change: one will move a piece to a new position and one will gain a …
