Comment on "Use of deterministic models in sports and exercise biomechanics research" by Chow and Knudson (2011).

abstract：:Tibial acceleration is a surrogate measure for impact loading and might be useful for identifying lower limb fatigue injury in runners. The resultant tibial acceleration calculated from all three axes of a triaxial accelerometer provides a single metric that is independent of the sensor orientation. The purpose of thi...
