Computational Modeling, Formal Analysis, and Tools for Systems Biology.
As the amount of biological data in the public domain grows, so does the range of modeling and analysis techniques employed in systems biology. In recent years, a number of theoretical computer science developments have enabled...
Engagement techniques and playing level impact the biomechanical demands on rugby forwards during machine-based scrummaging
Objectives This cross-sectional study investigated the factors that may influence the physical loading on rugby forwards performing a scrum by studying the biomechanics of machine-based scrummaging under different engagement...
Time-based calibrations of pressure sensors improve the estimation of force signals containing impulsive events
Piezoresistive pressure sensors are widely used in biomechanics applications involving both static and dynamic loading conditions. The overall accuracy of these sensors has been reported previously in the literature, and...
Analysis of a scaled stone masonry facade subjected to differential settlements
Historical masonry structures are vulnerable to differential settlements of the ground. This vulnerability is potentially higher for historic buildings on wooden pile foundations, which can have their bearing capacity reduced by...

Specific tackling situations affect the biomechanical demands experienced by rugby union players
Tackling in Rugby Union is an open skill which can involve high-speed collisions and is the match event associated with the greatest proportion of injuries. The purpose of this study was to analyse the biomechanics of rugby...
Acute effect of different minimalist shoes on foot strike pattern and kinematics in rearfoot strikers during running
Abstract Despite the growing interest in minimalist shoes, no studies have compared the efficacy of different types of minimalist shoe models in reproducing barefoot running patterns and in eliciting biomechanical changes...

Can coordination variability identify performance factors and skill level in competitive sport? The case of race walking
Background: Marginal changes in the execution of competitive sports movements can represent a significant change for performance success. However, such differences may emerge only at certain execution intensities and are not...
Towards a Biomarker of Motor Adaptation
Erika Molteni, Veronica Cimolin, Ezio Preatoni, Renato Rodano, Manuela Galli, Anna M. Bianchi
May 01, 2012
We propose an experimental protocol for the integrated study of motor adaptation during target-based movements. We investigated how motor adaptation affects both cerebral activity and motor performance during the preparation and...
Pre-binding prior to full engagement improves loading conditions for front-row players in contested rugby union scrums
We investigated the effect of a ‘PreBind’ engagement protocol on the biomechanics of contested Rugby Union scrummaging at different playing levels. ‘PreBind’ requires front-row props to take a bind on opposing players prior to...
