Division/Department: Division of Biomechanics of the University School of Physical Education



Subject and scope of tests:

1. Tests of muscle strength level in static and dynamic conditions (isokinetics), Concentric or eccentric work – of representative muscle groups (Biodex System3).

2. Tests of muscle strength level in static and quasi-static conditions on measurement stations equipped in momentometers (JBA Zb. Staniak, Poland).

3. Dynamic tests on dynamometric platforms:

• tests of dynamic loads (KISTLER dynamometric platforms),
• tests of lower and upper limb and body power, jumping ability tests (Counter Movement Jump, Squat Jump),
• load tests (ground reaction force) in any activities.

4. Tests of stability (postural stability) in static and dynamic conditions in a number of measurement systems:

• in static conditions (AMTI platforms, KISTLER platforms),
• in dynamic conditions (Biodex Balance platform).

5. Tests of foot pressure foot distribution:

• in static conditions (midi Capteurs, System Foot Scan RSScan),
• in dynamic conditions – walking (System Foot Scan RSScan).

6. Comprehensive analysis of biomechanics of walking:

• analysis of kinematics (technique) of walking (8 camera BTS Smart D System),
• analysis of strengths generated in support phases of feet, crutches, walking sticks etc. (2 dynamometric AMTI platforms),
• neuromuscular co-ordination analysis (electric muscle activity) of representative muscle groups (multi-channel telemetric Noraxon System).

Persons interested in undergoing tests are required to present a doctor’s certificate confirming the lack of contraindications to take part in the tests. 

Terms of co-operation: to be agreed
