The modern era of running shoes began in the 1960s with the introduction of simple polymer
midsole foams, and it ended in the late 2010s with the introduction of advanced footwear …

There are evidences to suggest that wearing footwear constrains the natural barefoot motion
during locomotion. Unlike prior studies that deduced foot motions from shoe sole …

This review aimed to synthesise the methods for assessing and reporting footwear
characteristics among studies evaluating the effect of footwear on running biomechanics …

Previous studies have used accelerometers with various operating ranges (ORs) when
measuring biomechanical parameters. However, it is still unclear whether ORs influence the …

Most running shoe midsoles are made of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) foam although
excellent mechanical long-term properties of polyurethane (PU) foam are generally known …

Athletic children are prone to overuse injuries, especially at the heel and knee. Since
footwear is an extrinsic factor of lower limb injury risk, the aim of this study was to assess the …

This study investigates the effect of running shoes' aging on mechanical and biomechanical
parameters as a function of midsole materials (viscous, intermediate, elastic) and ground …

This study aims to investigate the changes in the cushioning characteristics of running
shoes, particularly those with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) as midsole material, with mileage …

The purpose of the presented study was to compare the results of ASTM F 1614 Procedure
A, Procedure B and the HIT method to quantify the shock attenuating properties of 29 …

Footwear properties can influence physiological and biomechanical variables, which may
lead to positive changes in distance running performance. One innovative development in …
