Biomechanical Response of the Lower Extremity to Running-Induced Acute Fatigue: A Systematic Review

Kamiar Aminian, Salil Apte, Gaëlle Prigent

Objective: To investigate (i) typical protocols used in research on biomechanical response to running-induced fatigue, (ii) the effect of sport-induced acute fatigue on the biomechanics of running and functional tests, and (iii) the consistency of analyzed ...

Changes in lower limb biomechanics when following floor-projected foot placement visual cues for gait rehabilitation

Julien Favre, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli

Background: Lately, the projection of foot placement visual cues onto the floor has been considered for use in gait rehabilitation. While promising, this approach needs further basic assessment to ensure proper uses. Research question: Does following floor ...

Muscle co-contraction in an upper limb musculoskeletal model: EMG-assisted vs. standard load-sharing

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Philippe Müllhaupt, Ehsan Sarshari, Matteo Mancuso

Estimation of muscle forces in over-actuated musculoskeletal models involves optimal distributions of net joint moments among muscles by a standard load-sharing scheme (SLS). Given that co-contractions of antagonistic muscles are counterproductive in the n ...

Are Existing Monocular Computer Vision-Based 3D Motion Capture Approaches Ready for Deployment? A Methodological Study on the Example of Alpine Skiing

Pascal Fua, Helge Jochen Rhodin

In this study, we compared a monocular computer vision (MCV)-based approach with the golden standard for collecting kinematic data on ski tracks (i.e., video-based stereophotogrammetry) and assessed its deployment readiness for answering applied research q ...

Joint Inertial Sensor Orientation Drift Reduction for Highly Dynamic Movements

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel, Julien Chardonnens

Inertial sensor drift is usually corrected on a single-sensor unit level. When multiple sensor units are used, mutual information from different units can be exploited for drift correction. This study introduces a method for a drift-reduced estimation of t ...

Assessment of the lower limb soft tissue artefact at marker-cluster level with a high-density marker set during walking

Kamiar Aminian, Arnaud Barré

The estimation of joint kinematics from skin markers is hindered by the soft tissue artefact (STA), a well-known phenomenon although not fully characterized. While most assessments of the STA have been performed based on the individual skin markers displac ...

An Adaptive Neuromuscular Controller for Assistive Lower-Limb Exoskeletons: A Preliminary Study on Subjects with Spinal Cord Injury

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini, Amy Roning Wu

Versatility is important for a wearable exoskeleton controller to be responsive to both the user and the environment. These characteristics are especially important for subjects with spinal cord injury (SCI), where active recruitment of their own neuromusc ...

Validation of functional calibration and strap-down joint drift correction for computing 3D joint angles of knee, hip, and trunk in alpine skiing

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel

To obtain valid 3D joint angles with inertial sensors careful sensor-to-segment calibration (i.e. functional or anatomical calibration) is required and measured angular velocity at each sensor needs to be integrated to obtain segment and joint orientation ...

Impact of individual anatomy on the benefit of cup medialisation in total hip arthroplasty

Alexandre Terrier, Valérie Parvex

Introduction: In total hip arthroplasty, cup medialisation with compensatory increase of femoral offset has been proposed to increase the moment arms of abductor muscles. However, this technique is associated with a loss of acetabular bone stock. Previous ...

Series Elastic Actuation for Assistive Orthotic Devices: Case Study of Pneumatic Actuator

Hannes Bleuler, Mohamed Bouri, Jonathan Olivier, Amalric Louis Ortlieb

Wearable assistive robotics is a modern field where intelligent actuated systems work in collaboration with the body to replace a lost limb, to enhance performances (e.g. carrying load, walking, running, jumping) or to train or rehabilitate specific activi ...

Locally Linear Neuro-Fuzzy Estimate of the Prosthetic Knee Angle and its Validation in a Robotic Simulator

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami

Here we present a low-power magnetic measurement system based on only two Hall-effect elements and a permanent magnet integrated into a smart knee prosthesis to accurately measure knee flexion-extension. The smart prosthesis was tested in a robotic knee si ...

Sagittal plane blocade in patients with Functional Hallux Limitus:a multisegment model analysis of the Flexor Hallucis Longus endoscopic tenolysis

Kamiar Aminian, Hossein Rouhani, Arash Arami

Functional Hallux Limitus (FHL) is a relatively unknown clinical entity in which dorsal flexion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is restricted during final stance phase, derailing the three mechanisms of foot stabilization 1. The close packing of the ...

Myogenic potential of canine craniofacial satellite cells

Marco Cassano

The skeletal fibers have different embryological origin; the extraocular and jaw-closer muscles develop from prechordal mesoderm while the limb and trunk muscles from somites. These different origins characterize also the adult muscle stem cells, known as ...

Estimation of prosthetic knee angles via data fusion of implantable and wearable sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami, Arnaud Barré, Roderik Berthelin

In this work, we studied a combination of embedded magnetic measurement system in a knee prosthesis and wearable inertial sensors to estimate two knee joint rotations namely flexion-extension and internal-external rotations. The near optimal sensor configu ...
