Introduzione al movimentoSi sottolinea la differenza tra andatura descritta dallo standard di perfezione di una razza e andatura funzionalmente efficiente per la razza stessa. Esistono varie andature e razze destinate a scopi diversi eseguono differenti tipi di trotto.
Legs, Feet, and Cursorial LocomotionLegs, Feet, and Cursorial Locomotion; structure and structure for running fast; stride lenght and stride rate.
Density of muscle spindle profiles in the intrinsic forelimb muscles of the dogThe concept of parallel muscle combinations, in which spindle density is significantly higher in small muscles compared to their larger counterparts in large-small muscle combinations acting across a joint, is supported by the results of this study regard
Electrical activity and relative length changes of dog limb muscles as a function of speed and gaitElectrical activity and length changes of 11 muscles of the fore- and hind- limbs of dogs walking, running, and galloping on a treadmill, were measured as a function of forward speed and gait.
In vivo bone strain on the dog tibia during locomotionRosette and single-element strain gauges were implanted on the tibia in 2 dogs and recordings were made during locomotion on a treadmill.
Lo studio del movimentoGli standards delle razze canine sono stati formulati quando la conoscenza di ciò che produceva una efficiente locomozione era molto poca.
Electromyographic and kinematic studies of tail movements in dogs during treadmill locomotionElectromyographic (EMG) activities of three tail muscles, the extensor caudae lateralis (ECL), abductor caudae externus (ACE), and flexor caudae longus (FCL), were recorded bilaterally in seven adult dogs during walking, trotting, and galloping on a tread
Evaluating MovementSome people seem to have an eye for analyzing the moving dog, and some people must work very hard do develop this talent. Unfortunately, it seems that there are quite a few other people that can’t (or won’t) learn.
Funzionalità e princìpi scientificiGli scritti sulla corretta struttura che produce efficientemente movimento nei cani sono gene-ralmente riconducibili a libri scritti sui cavalli, ma non si deve pensare che tutti i principi applicabili ai cavalli siano egualmente applicabili ai cani.
Gli standards e il movimentoUn approccio interessante è quello di osservare come sono costruiti gli animali che fanno quello per cui le varie razze canine sono state sviluppate, ma lo fanno meglio, e quindi ritornare a esaminare il cane.
Metabolic cost of grade running in dogsDogs (Canis familiaris) were run up and down 7.4, 11.8, and 20.4% grades as well as on the horizontal at speeds of 3 and 6 km/h while their steady-state oxygen comsumption was measured.
Costruzione e movimento: stabilire dei criteriNel valutare conformazione e movimento nelle razze canine è importante sviluppare un discorso coerente che stabilisca dei chiari principi di base nella valutazione dei soggetti.
Bone strain: a determinant of gait and speed?Principal strains were recorded in vivo from the radial and tibial midshafts of three goats as they increased speed and changed gait. These data were compared with strain data measured for the radius and tibia of the dog (Rubin & Lanyon, 1982) and the hor
Speed control in quadrupedal locomotion: principles of limb coordination in the dogLong distance, overground locomotion in the dog was observed and analyzed using the two dimensional gait diagram method.
Nonlinear dynamics stability measurements of locomotion in healthy greyhoundsTo characterize normal locomotion of dogs, using nonlinear dynamic stability measurements to analyze two-dimensional kinematic data.
A synergetic theory of quadrupedal gaits and gait transitionsWe present a theoretical analysis of the patterns of interlimb co-ordination in the gaits of quadrupedal locomotion.
Oxygen consumption and hemodynamic responses during graded treadmill exercise in the dogA description is given of a technique that provides a relatively simple means by which O2 consumption and hemodynamic variables can be measured in exercising dogs.
Walk, Run ... and SkipA short story of animal locomotion studies.
Lo scopo di una razzaEsistono costruzioni specifiche che permettono prestazioni superiori per qualsiasi scopo a cui si voglia destinare un cane. Capire quale è lo scopo di una razza spesso spiega come le sue parti strutturali devono essere costruite.
