I am currently starting a project that will analyze the biomechanical
indicators (eg. Postural Sway, Symmetry of Motion, Jerk, ...) of stability
problems in the elderly. If anyone could help me out by providing some
references with respect to such factors or simply suggest others, it would
be greatly appreciated. Below, I am including the references I have
collected to this point. I would be happy to compile whatever I receive and
post it for all.
Cheers,
Andrew
