    Creator:
    O'Neill, Elizabeth A.
    Abstract:
    Women are economically disadvantaged in most U.S. labor markets, demonstrated by a persistent gender wage gap.

  • Effects of restricted ankle range of motion on human walking : an application to transtibial amputee gait patterns

    Creator:
    Silverman, Susan R. (Susan Rebecca)
    Abstract:
    Alterations in gait patterns are commonly observed in individuals with transtibial amputation (TTA) who use a prosthesis. Current commercially available ankle-foot prostheses (AFP) offer very little range of motion (ROM) at the ankle joint. Previous researchers have hypothesized that lack of ankle ROM significantly contributes to alterations in TTA gait...
