Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Clinical Biomechanics focuses on the analysis of human movement and its underlying mechanical principles. Recent articles investigate gait biomechanics in various populations, including those with multiple sclerosis, visual impairments, and following rotationplasty. The journal also examines muscle activity during neurodynamic testing and the biomechanical stability of orthopedic implants.
