AGING AND WALKING ENERGETICS

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 这项研究的目的是了解衰老对运动能量的影响。我们将测量身体利用新陈代谢能量的效率，以及肌肉在倾斜行走时的表现。此外，我们还将测量侧向稳定如何影响行走过程中的能量消耗、腿部运动和腿部肌肉的行为。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The goal of this research is to understand the effects of aging on the energetics of locomotion. We will be measuring how efficient the body is at using metabolic energy and how the muscles behave inclined walking. In addition, we will be measuring how side-to-side stabilization affects the amount of energy used, the movements of the legs, and the behavior of leg muscles during walking.
