Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The significance of bipedalism is connected to human evolutionary development, lifecycle processes, and social interactions. Gait analysis serves as an essential tool for understanding human movement, offering valuable insights into biomechanics, injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance optimisation. Research in this field explores techniques for assessing and analysing movement patterns across the lifespan, as well as the effectiveness of interventions aimed at influencing parameters of gait. To further advance this area of study, we are organising a Special Issue titled “Recent Advances in Motion Analysis, Gait Analysis, and Associated Interventions”.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
