A Biomimetic Treadmill-Driven Ankle Exoskeleton: A Study in Able-Bodied Individuals Open
Despite rapid growth in the body of research on ankle exoskeletons, we have so far not seen their massive adoption in clinical rehabilitation. We foresee that an ankle exo best suited to rehabilitation use should possess the power generati…

A Novel Principle for Transparent Applications of Force Impulses in Cable-Driven Rehabilitation Systems Open
A critical requirement for rehabilitation robots is achieving high transparency in user interaction to minimize interference when assistance is unnecessary. Cable-driven systems are a compelling alternative to rigid-link robots due to thei…

The Existence of Shared Muscle Synergies Underlying Perturbed and Unperturbed Gait Depends on Walking Speed Open
Muscle synergy theory assumes that the central nervous system generates a wide range of complex motor outputs by recruiting muscle synergies with different strengths and timings. The current understanding is that a common set of muscle syn…

Dynamic balancing responses in unilateral transtibial amputees following outward-directed perturbations during slow treadmill walking differ considerably for amputated and non-amputated side Open
Background Due to disrupted motor and proprioceptive function, lower limb amputation imposes considerable challenges associated with balance and greatly increases risk of falling in presence of perturbations during walking. The aim of this…

Biomechanics of In-Stance Balancing Responses Following Outward-Directed Perturbation to the Pelvis During Very Slow Treadmill Walking Show Complex and Well-Orchestrated Reaction of Central Nervous System Open
Multiple strategies may be used when counteracting loss of balance during walking. Placing the foot onto a new location is not efficient when walking speed is very low. Instead medio-lateral displacement of center-of-pressure, rotation of …

Wide Skis As a Potential Knee Injury Risk Factor in Alpine Skiing Open
Alpine skis with wider waist widths have recently become more popular. With such skis, the contact point of the ground reaction force during ski turns is displaced more medially from beneath the sole of the outer ski, which may present an …

Influence of Treadmill Speed and Perturbation Intensity on Selection of Balancing Strategies during Slow Walking Perturbed in the Frontal Plane Open
Background . Common understanding is that adequate foot placement (stepping strategy) is crucial in maintaining stability during walking at normal speed. The aim of this study was to investigate strategies that humans use to cope with late…
