1.
Franz J, Shelton A, Takahashi K, Allen J
J Neuroeng Rehabil
. 2025 Jan;
22(1):11.
PMID: 39849593
Background: Advanced age brings a loss of plantar sensation, represented, for example, as higher sensation thresholds in standardized testing. This is thought to contribute to an increased risk of falls...

White L, Malcolm P, Franz J, Takahashi K
J Appl Biomech
. 2025 Jan;
:1-8.
PMID: 39753120
Shoes or insoles embedded with carbon fiber materials to increase longitudinal stiffness have been shown to enhance running and walking performance in elite runners, and younger adults, respectively. It is...

Gray A, Takahashi K, Kashefsky H, Franz J
J Appl Biomech
. 2024 Nov;
40(6):449-454.
PMID: 39500307
Older adults walk with less push-off power than younger adults. Principally attributed to plantar flexor dysfunction, growing evidence implicates interactions between the foot and ankle as critical for generating effective...

Takahashi K, Krupenevich R, Lenz A, Kelly L, Rainbow M, Franz J
Biomechanics (Basel)
. 2024 Jan;
2(4):494-499.
PMID: 38249991
Much of our current understanding of age-related declines in mobility has been aided by decades of investigations on the role of muscle-tendon units spanning major lower extremity joints (e.g., hip,...

Papachatzis N, Takahashi K
PLoS One
. 2023 Sep;
18(9):e0286521.
PMID: 37695795
When humans walk on slopes, the ankle, knee, and hip joints modulate their mechanical work to accommodate the mechanical demands. Yet, it is unclear if the foot modulates its work...

Senatore S, Takahashi K, Malcolm P
Front Robot AI
. 2023 Aug;
10:1183170.
PMID: 37538962
Human-in-the-loop optimization algorithms have proven useful in optimizing complex interactive problems, such as the interaction between humans and robotic exoskeletons. Specifically, this methodology has been proven valid for reducing metabolic...

Papachatzis N, Ray S, Takahashi K
J Exp Biol
. 2023 Apr;
226(10).
PMID: 37092255
Foot structures define the leverage in which the ankle muscles push off against the ground during locomotion. While prior studies have indicated that inter-individual variation in anthropometry (e.g. heel and...

Papachatzis N, Slivka D, Pipinos I, Schmid K, Takahashi K
Front Bioeng Biotechnol
. 2022 Jul;
10:908725.
PMID: 35832413
Most of the terrestrial legged locomotion gaits, like human walking, necessitate energy dissipation upon ground collision. In humans, the heel mostly performs net-negative work during collisions, and it is currently...

Meade Z, Likens A, Kent J, Takahashi K, Wurdeman S, Jacobsen A, et al.
Front Physiol
. 2022 Feb;
13:810079.
PMID: 35185618
Stochastic resonance has been successfully used to improve human movement when using subthreshold vibration. Recent work has shown promise in improving mobility in individuals with unilateral lower limb amputations. Furthering...

Exp Brain Res
. 2022 Feb;
240(4):1159-1176.
PMID: 35165776
An exoskeletal device can assist walking in those with gait deficits. A passive exoskeleton can be a favorable choice for local or home rehabilitation settings because it is affordable, light...
