Measuring Acceleration Due to Gravity

1.1K
Consider a coffee mug hanging on a hook in a pantry. If the mug gets knocked, it oscillates back and forth like a pendulum until the oscillations die out.
A simple pendulum can be described as a point mass and a string. Meanwhile, a physical pendulum is any object whose oscillations are similar to a simple pendulum, but cannot be modeled as a point mass on a string because its mass is distributed over a larger area. The behavior of a physical pendulum can be modeled using the principles of...

    • Accelerometer data are converted into activity counts for intensity, duration, energy expenditure, and activity classification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the computation of Actigraph activity counts.
    • To analyze the effects of band-pass filtering and amplitude non-linearities on count conversion.

    Main Methods:

    • Replicated ActiGraph filter performance using experimental data from an urban-circuit study (n=20).
    • Assessed filter limitations, such as the plateau phenomenon, using treadmill tests with incremental speeds (n=4).

    Main Results:
