David A. Winter (PhD, PEng) is a distinguished professor emeritus of the University of Waterloo. He was a founding member of the Canadian Society for Biomechanics and its first Career Award winner. He was later awarded the Muybridge Medal of the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB) and the Lifetime Achievement Award of The Gait and Clinical Movement Analysis Society. Before becoming an academic he served as an electrical officer with the Royal Canadian Navy on the HMCS Nootka from 1952 to 1958. He completed his service at the rank of lieutenant commander. In December 2011, ISB named an award to encourage young people to stay involved in biomechanics research the "David Winter Young Investigator Award." Winter is notable for introducing many important methods and concepts to the study of human locomotion and balance, such as automated television motion capture,〔Winter, D.A., Greenlaw, R.K., Hobson, D.A. Television-computer analysis of kinematics of human gait. Computers and Biomed. Research, 5:498-504, 1972.〕 lowpass digital filtering of marker trajectories,〔Winter, D.A., Sidwall, H.G., Hobson, D.A. Measurement and reduction of noise in kinematics of locomotion. J. Biomech. 7:157-159, 1974.〕 measurement of instantaneous segmental energy,〔Winter, D.A., Quanbury, A.O., Reimer, G.D. Analysis of instantaneous energy of normal gait. J. Biomech. 9:253-257, 1976.〕 and the powers produced by joint moments of force,〔Winter, D.A., Quanbury, A.O., Reimer, G.D. Instantaneous energy and power flow in gait of normals. Biomechanics VA. Komi, P.V. (Ed.) Baltimore: University Park Press, 334-340, 1976.〕 and the analysis of electromyograms by ensemble averaging.〔Winter, D.A. Use of computer averaged EMG profiles in the diagnosis of pathological gait.

Med. and Rehab. 65:393-400, 1984.〕 ==Education== *BSc, Electrical Engineering, Queen's University, 1953 *MSc, Electrical Engineering, Queen's University, 1961 *PhD, Physiology & Biophysics, Dalhousie University, 1967 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David A.
