Measurements of tibial acceleration during walking and running were obtained by means of a triaxial accelerometer. The accelerometer was fixed to the free end of a Steinmann pin inserted into the right tibia of one volunteer subject. The patterns of tibial acceleration showed little step-to-step variation within each experimental condition. Following foot strike and depending upon footwear, the resultant tibial acceleration reached between 2.7 and 3.7 g during walking. The tibia experienced maximal accelerations of 10.6 g during running. The high values of tibial acceleration recorded in the antero-posterior (AP) and medio-lateral (ML) directions clearly revealed the importance of measuring all three components of acceleration to quantify the magnitude of the shock experienced by the lower limbs during locomotor activities.
