Gait Phase Estimation in Steady Walking: A Comparative Study of Methods Based on the Phase Portrait of the Hip Angle

Auke Ijspeert, Mohamed Bouri, Ali Reza Manzoori

Accurate real-time estimation of the gait phase (GP) is crucial for many control methods in exoskeletons and prostheses. A class of approaches to GP estimation construct the phase portrait of a segment or joint angle, and use the normalized polar angle of ...

Magnetization-prepared 2 Rapid Gradient-Echo MRI for B-1 Insensitive 3D T1 Mapping of Hip Cartilage: An Experimental and Clinical Validation

Tobias Kober

Background: Often used for T1 mapping of hip cartilage, three-dimensional (3D) dual-flip-angle (DFA) techniques are highly sensitive to flip angle variations related to B-1 inhomogeneities. The authors hypothesized that 3D magnetization-prepared 2 rapid gr ...

Control Strategies for Lower-limb Exoskeletons: from Full Mobilization to Assistance of Balance

Romain Pierre François Baud

Bipedal locomotion is a remarkable feature of humans. This skill is necessary for the activities of daily living. Unfortunately, many people only partially benefit from it or miss it entirely because of a disability. This may result in a slower gait, less ...

Evaluation of time-frequency features as detectors of lack of balance due to tripping-like perturbations

Silvestro Micera

Unbalancing events during gait can end up in falls and, thus, injury. Detecting events that could bring to fall and consequently activating fall prevention systems before the impact may help to mitigate related injuries. However, there is uncertainty about ...

Pre-impact detection algorithm to identify lack of balance due to tripping-like perturbations

Silvestro Micera

This study investigates the performance of an updated version of our pre-impact detection algorithm while parsing out hip kinematics in order to identify unexpected tripping-like perturbations during walking. This approach grounds on the hypothesis that du ...

A Closed-Loop EMG-Assisted Shoulder Model

Ehsan Sarshari

The human shoulder is a complex musculoskeletal system. Knowledge about its kinematics and dynamics can help improve associated treatments. However, to date direct measurements of these quantities can be only granted through invasive investigations or expe ...
