  • Test Type 1 – Start from Stop (Translation)

170 psi cylinder pressure 2.8-kN (630 lb)

static preload applied to bearing track Imposed F(t)

Inputs: Vertical force and pressure in actuator Outputs: Does shoe break free? If so, how far and fast does it move?

CENTER for APPLIED BIOMECHANICS

  • Test 2 – Stop/Cut (Drop)

(37.5 kg, 82.5 lb.) 1.5 m/s

then release and drop

(2 5/8”, 6.7 cm)

Inputs: Mass, drop height, speed over ground Outputs: Does shoe snag? Vertical force, lateral force, and inversion bending moment.
