Recently, there has been great improvement in the field of movement analysis, which is a worldwide tendency. There is a continuous improvement of new methods, combined with traditional ones. In the last few years, we have managed to set up a modern, absolutely up-to-date motion analysis laboratory at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BUTE). The primary purpose of this study was to determine usual walking and running parameters as a function of speed and compare our results with the data of other studies. We tested the gait and running characteristics of people at different speeds, measuring the usual parameters of walking and running. On the basis of these measurements, we observed the interrelation of the three main parameters of gait and running (speed, cadence, stride length) and determined the dependence of cadence and stride length on speed as well. The determined energetically optimal walking speed (EOWS) and the usual walking speed (UWS) correlate well with the values in literature. Our measurements were performed on a running corridor, and at the facilities provided by the Biomechanical Laboratory, including an instrumented treadmill connected to the measurement system.
最近，运动分析领域有了很大的进步，这是一种全球趋势。新方法不断改进，并与传统方法相结合。在过去几年里，我们在布达佩斯技术与经济大学（BUTE）成功建立了一个现代化的、绝对最新的运动分析实验室。本研究的主要目的是确定作为速度函数的正常行走和跑步参数，并将我们的结果与其他研究的数据进行比较。我们测试了不同速度下人们的步态和跑步特征，测量了行走和跑步的常规参数。基于这些测量，我们观察了步态和跑步的三个主要参数（速度、步频、步长）之间的相互关系，并确定了步频和步长对速度的依赖性。所确定的能量最优步行速度（EOWS）和正常步行速度（UWS）与文献中的值相关性良好。我们的测量是在一条跑步走廊以及生物力学实验室提供的设施上进行的，这些设施包括一台连接到测量系统的仪器化跑步机。
