Abstract: This paper presents a design of a passive spine exoskeleton which implements a “push–pullâ€‌ external assistive strategy. The spine exoskeleton was designed for reducing the risk of back injury. It applies a pulling ...

Abstract: An ankle–foot prosthesis designed to mimic the missing physiological limb generates a large sagittal moment during push off which must be transferred to the residual limb through the socket connection. The large moment ...

Abstract: This paper presents the development of a compact, modular rotary series elastic actuator (SEA) design that can be customized to meet the requirements of a wide range of applications. The concept incorporates flat brushless ...
