Distribution of ground reaction forces of the concurrently loaded limbs of the Dutch Warmblood horse at the normal walk.

摘要: The distribution of the ground reaction forces (GRF) over concurrently loaded limbs normally walking horse was determined from 'representative' GRF patterns all limbs, which were plotted in correct time order after analysis simultaneously taken high-speed film. This procedure visualises each four relation to pattern(s) one or two limb(s) during a complete stride. In 15 clinically sound horses mean averaged data and temporal stride parameters showed an almost symmetry between both forelimbs hindlimbs resulted load first half being identical those second transverse horizontal force (Fx) maximum unilateral support phase. No more than limb at contributed either deceleration acceleration longitudinal (Fy) force. total vertical (Fz) fluctuated 7 12 N/kg body weight. left forelimb lame horse, decreased amplitudes compensated by increased three other swing phase stance limb. Due alterations limb, as well changed dramatically.
