Effects of Prolonged Running on Ground Reaction Force Patterns Wearing Shoes of Different Midsole Durometers (Fatigue)
… took place on two days when shoes of different midsole durometers (40 and 70 DSs) were worn. The protocol allowed assessment of the effects of both fatigue, and different DSs, on GRFs. The data were analysed using repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni t procedures. Several significant …

Prototyping of Injection EVA Foam Footwear Midsoles
… Asia (ADC). One important component is the midsole, often made from a type of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam called injection-phylon (IP). IP midsole prototyping is currently exclusively outsourced, however there is a desire for a supplementary internal capability at the PCC. This thesis …

Kinematic and Kinetic Analyses of E-TPU Material in Bowling Footwear
… of this study was to examine the effects of midsole construction (barefoot, traditional bowling shoes with minimalist midsole design, and the modified bowling shoes with E TPU midsole design) on the amount of shock absorption and the mechanics of bowling delivery. All shoes underwent static …

Shoe Bending Stiffness and Muscle-Tendon Unit Function in Running
… have been attributed to recent footwear midsole innovations. One of these midsole innovations that has been claimed to have large effects on biomechanical, physiological, and performance variables is the use of a carbon fibre plate to increase the longitudinal bending stiffness of a shoe. …

Gas loss and durability of EVA foams used in running shoes
… and not to a change in the air content. Midsole deterioration in running shoes was measured in controlled running tests.These confirmed the deterioration of the midsole foam, with an increase of the peakplantar pressure and structural damage in the foam after a long run.The diffusion …

Optimizing Shoe Midsoles for Running Performance
… ways that foam casting, which is the traditional midsole fabrication method, does not. These new designs have the potential to improve running performance and are therefore being used by sports brands, especially by adidas, to create their latest lines of shoes. To perform rapid evaluation of …

The biomechanical and neuromuscular responses to shoe-surface instability
… if the developed shoe with irregular midsole deformations (IM) was more demanding, alike uneven terrain, it was compared to an irregular surface (IS) and a stable shoe-surface during treadmill walking and running. Generally, IM increased instability compared to the control, …

Development of an inverse FE modelling method for material parameters identification based on indentation tests
… used to study the properties of EVA foams for midsole of sport shoes and human heel pad using a newly develop continuous indentation testing system. Blind tests have been successfully used to establish the validity, efficiency and robustness of the program with different material models, error …

The kinetics, kinematics and energy requirements of distance running: Implications for footwear design
… should consider footwear with more advanced midsole cushioning properties designed to reduce the magnitude of impact transients. Study 2 examined the gender differences in the kinetics and 3-D kinematics of running in order to determine whether females require running shoes specifically …

Zusammenhänge zwischen laufbedingten Beschwerden, individuellen Variablen sowie funktionellen Sportschuhparametern
Ziel der Arbeit war es, festzustellen a) ob funktionelle Sportschuhparameter die Entstehung von Beschwerden beeinflussen, und b) ob zwischen individuellen Variablen und der Verletzungsinzidenz ein Zusammenhang besteht. Die vorliegenden Ergebnisse implizieren, dass Schuhe mit einer dämpfenden …
