Kinematic and Dynamic Analysis of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper will provide the kinematic and dynamic analysis of a lower limb exoskeleton. The forward and inverse kinematics of proposed exoskeleton is performed using Denevit and Hartenberg method. The torques required for the actuators will be calculated using Lagrangian formulation technique. This research can be used to design the control of the proposed exoskeleton. Keywords—Dynamic Analysis, Exoskeleton, Kinematic Analysis, Lower Limb, Rehabilitation Robotics

Kinematic and Dynamic Analysis of Lower Limb Rehabilitation Exoskeleton Legs
It is imperative to develop an rehabilitative appliance to help patients with lower limb disabled walk again because patients’ number increases and the traditional training needs physical therapists’ auxiliary and costs high. Therefore, we design a lower limb rehabilitative exoskeleton legs driving by two linear actuators and optimize the legs’ structure to resolve the problem that the linear w...
متن کاملEffect of Target Impedance Selection on the Lower Extremity Assistive Exoskeleton Performance
Exoskeletons are utilized extensively in robotic rehabilitation and power augmentation purposes. One of the most recognised control algorithms utilized in this field is the impedance controller. Impedance control approach provides the capability of realizing different rehabilitation exercises by tuning the target impedance gains. Trial and error experimental approach is one of the most common m...
متن کاملCustomizable Rehabilitation Lower Limb Exoskeleton System
Disabled people require assistance with the motion of their lower limbs to improve rehabilitation. Exoskeletons used for lower limb rehabilitation are highly priced and are not affordable to the lowerincome sector of the population. This paper describes an exoskeleton lower limb system that was designed keeping in mind that the cost must be as low as possible. ...
متن کاملUpper and Lower Exoskeleton Limbs for Assistive and Rehabilitative Applications
Individuals with tetraplegia have loss of motor function in both their upper and lower extremities. Research is being conducted into the development of an exoskeleton to cater for the tetraplegic user. An exoskeleton system has the advantage of assisting disabled or rehabilitating patients without the need of surgery. This paper includes the conceptual design of an upper and lower limb exoskele...
