All three-dimensional accelerations and forces are reduced to two-dimensional space by combining their x and y components. The acceleration components aN and aT, which include the gravitational acceleration, are measured by the accelerometers. The components an and at are the true normal and tangential accelerations in the measurement point, respectively, and g is the gravitation. Thin arrow indicates direction of the movement. The distance of the two accelerometers from the bottom tip is R1 and R2, respectively, and the angle of test device relative to the x-y plane of the FP is α. The components Fxy and Fz are forces measured by the force plate. Figure Legend:
