Agreement between systems was assessed by computing correlation coefficients for corresponding PM time series and evaluating their sensitivity to visual condition changes. Theia3D and Vicon produced highly similar PM structures, with the first two PMs—representing anterior-posterior ankle-strategy and medio-lateral sway—exhibiting near-perfect correlation (r = 99.8 % and r = 99.0 %) and explaining a comparable portion of the entire postural variance (PM1: 74 % vs. 76 %; PM2: 9.4 % vs. 9.9 % for Vicon and Theia3D results, respectively). The first seven PMs, which collectively accounted for 97 % of postural variance, showed strong agreement (r = 0.814 to 0.928) despite fundamental differences in marker placement and tracking methodology. Correlation declined in higher-order PMs, suggesting they capture distinct aspects of postural movements or system-specific noise. Both systems demonstrated comparable sensitivity to postural control modulations induced by visual deprivation. Notably, Theia3D exhibited higher noise levels, particularly in higher-order PMs, indicating that pre-processing with filtering should be considered before PCA.

We found that peak micromotions trended larger (up to 69 % greater) when elastic–plastic bone material behavior was incorporated, and that larger differences in peak micromotions were seen with larger differences in peak interfacial von Mises stresses between simulations incorporating elastic–plastic versus linear elastic bone material behavior (r = −0.73, p < 0.001). The larger peak micromotions when elastic–plastic bone material behavior was incorporated were strongly associated with how much interfacial bone plasticly deformed (r = 0.92, p < 0.001).

Results showed that while older adults maintained largely similar coordination patterns to younger adults, significant differences emerged during transitions from double to single support. Specifically, older adults demonstrated altered hip-knee and interlimb knee coordination, driven by an earlier phase transition in knee phase angle during loading response and a delayed transition in hip phase angle during pre-swing. These alterations were accompanied by increased variability in interlimb hip coordination, particularly during critical gait transitions. Our findings suggest that age-related coordination changes are subtle and primarily affect step-to-step transitions. These changes may contribute to previously reported decreases in PWS, shorter step length, and increased metabolic cost in older adults.
