Modern human variation as a model for locomotor evolution in ancestral hominins

The transition to terrestrial bipedalism represents a defining episode in the history of our species. Understanding how, when, and why upright bipedalism evolved in hominins requires the biomechanics of fossil organisms to be analysed. Read more

Moving softly: how the interplay of neuronal circuits and biomechanics enables complex movement in soft-bodied animals

Soft bodied animals can radically change their body shape, squeeze through cracks, then crawl, roll, tunnel, or even jump. Controlling soft bodies is difficult because they have highly non-linear physical properties and virtually unlimited degrees of freedom. Read more

A novel computational biomechanics framework to model vascular mechanopropagation and single cell mechanosensing

The mechanical stimuli generated by body exercise can be transmitted from cortical bone into the deep bone marrow. A mechanosensitive perivascular stem cell niche is recently identified within the bone marrow for osteogenesis and lymphopoiesis. Read more

Biomechanics and wearable sensors

Project Overview. Movement analysis and recording in humans has been confined to dedicated gait and motion capture facilities, but this only records movements for a single part of one day in an unusual environment. Read more

Understanding the biomechanics of vibro-tactile perception

This project will build on previous research within the department to measure the ability of different users to perceive and respond to vibro-tactile interfaces (such as those used in phones and tablet devices). Read more

Novel materials for ankle ligament repair

Chronic ankle instability affects about 30% of patients who have experienced a severe ankle sprain. Around 60% of these will have degeneration of the ankle and develop osteoarthritis - a debilitating condition. Read more
