چکیده

To study human lateral stabilization strategies, we developed a simple model using pendulums and a momentum wheel representing human appendages, and we recorded appendage data from 7 subjects during one-legged standing. We demonstrated that simple pendulum models can explain some of the strategies employed by humans to stabilize and that the basic strategy people employ to stabilize themselves is to move their appendages in the direction they are falling.

The role of the mechanical system in control: a hypothesis of self-stabilization in hexapedal runners

To explore the role of the mechanical system in control, we designed a two-dimensional, feed-forward, dynamic model of a hexapedal runner (death-head cockroach, Blaberus discoidalis). We chose to model many-legged, sprawled posture animals because of their remarkable stability. Since sprawled posture animals operate more in the horizontal plane than animals with upright postures, we decoupled t...
