The Standing Reach (SR) is a motor task where the subject is required to lean the trunk forward, starting from the upright position, and trying to reach the maximum displacement of the arms. This task satisfies two different requirements: it is clinically relevant, and also it can be easily studied from a biomechanical point of view, since it can be modelled as an inverted double-pendulum. The objective of this work is to derive kinematic and kinetic information, relative to SR, starting from ground reaction data and solving the direct dynamic problem.

Abstract
The Standing Reach (SR) is a motor task where the subject is required to lean the trunk forward, starting from the upright position, and trying to reach the maximum displacement of the arms. This task satisfies two different requirements: it is clinically relevant, and also it can be easily studied from a biomechanical point of view, since it can be modelled as an inverted double-pendulum. The objective of this work is to derive kinematic and kinetic information, relative to SR, starting from ground reaction data and solving the direct dynamic problem.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
