Proximal Versus Distal Control of Two-Joint Planar Reaching Movements in the Presence of Neuromuscular Noise
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Determining how the human nervous system contends with neuro-motor noise is vital to understanding how humans achieve accurate goal-directed movements. Experimentally, people learning skilled tasks ...
Dynamic Stability of Passive Dynamic Walking on an Irregular Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Falls that occur during walking are a significant health problem. One of the greatest impediments to solve this problem is that there is no single obviously “correct” way to quantify walking ...
Differences Between Local and Orbital Dynamic Stability During Human Walking
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Currently there is no commonly accepted way to define, much less quantify, locomotor stability. In engineering, “orbital stability” is defined using Floquet multipliers that quantify how purely ...
Slow-Time Changes in Human EMG Muscle Fatigue States Are Fully Represented in Movement Kinematics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The ability to identify physiologic fatigue and related changes in kinematics can provide an important tool for diagnosing fatigue-related injuries. This study examined an exhaustive cycling task ...
Nonlinear Smooth Orthogonal Decomposition of Kinematic Features of Sawing Reconstructs Muscle Fatigue Evolution as Indicated by Electromyography
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tracking or predicting physiological fatigue is important for developing more robust training protocols and better energy supplements and/or reducing muscle injuries. Current methodologies are usually ...
