Ankle mechanics during sidestep cutting implicates need for 2-degrees of freedom powered ankle-foot prostheses.
The ankle joint of currently available powered prostheses is capable of controlling one degree of freedom (DOF), focusing on improved mobility in the sagittal plane. To increase agility, the requirements of turning in prosthesis design need to be considered. Ankle kinematics and kinetics were studied during sidestep cutting and straight walking. There were no significant differences between the...
متن کاملMulti-axis Capability for Powered Ankle-Foot Prostheses
The ankle joint of lower extremity powered prostheses are generally designed to be capable of controlling a single degree of freedom (DOF) in the sagittal plane, allowing a focus on improved mobility in straight walking. However, the single DOF ankle movements are rare in normal lower limb actions such as walking on a straight path or turning when the ankle movements in both sagittal and fronta...
متن کاملBiomechanics of the ankle-foot system during stair ambulation: implications for design of advanced ankle-foot prostheses.
Unilateral lower limb prosthesis users display temporal, kinematic, and kinetic asymmetries between limbs while ascending and descending stairs. These asymmetries are due, in part, to the inability of current prosthetic devices to effectively mimic normal ankle function. The purpose of this study was to provide a comprehensive set of biomechanical data for able-bodied and unilateral transtibial...
متن کاملLocomotion Envelopes for Adaptive Control of Powered Ankle Prostheses
In this paper we combine Gaussian process regression and impedance control, to illicit robust, anthropomorphic, adaptive control of a powered ankle prosthesis. We learn the non-linear manifolds which guide how locomotion variables temporally evolve, and regress that surface over a velocity range to create a manifold. The joint set of manifolds, as well as the temporal evolution of the gait-cycl...
متن کاملA Neuromuscular - Model Based Control Strategy For Powered Ankle - Foot Prostheses
In the development of a powered ankle-foot prosthesis, it is desirable to provide the prosthesis with the ability to exhibit human-like dynamics. A simple method for achieving this goal involves trajectory tracking, where a specific target torque trajectory is known, and the controller issues commands to follow the trajectory as closely as possible. However, without a methodology to update the ...
