چکیده
[3] or is moving an exercise machine or an orthotic device. In systems of this nature, the human arm dynamics are integrated with the machine dynamics, resulting in behavior specific to the total system. The performance and stability of the system taken as a whole are both functions of not only the machine dynamics, but also the human arm dynamics. Evideoce for instability in a human-machine system involving an interaction force between the human and the machine, as well as force feedback compensation within the machine, has been shown [1,3]. The goal of this article is to determine whether increasing muscular cocontraction levels may be a cause of such instability. Abstract

Background and Objectives: Preparation and evaluation of nanocomposite films have become prevalent in recent years. Depending on the purpose of using the film, and considering the effects and interaction effects of nanomaterial and other modifiers on the film properties, the amounts of nanomaterials and modifiers should be optimized. The effects of montmorillonite (MMT), glycerol (GL), and thei...
متن کاملThe Effect of Exhaustive Protocol on Knee Muscle Co-contraction in Healthy People and with a Pronated Foot during Running
Background and Aim: Fatigue and abnormalities in the lower extremities, such as the pronated foot, can adversely affect the biomechanics of human movements such as running, leading to a lack of muscle contraction and unstable symptoms in the joints of the lower extremities (knees). Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of exhaustive protocol on knee muscle co-c...
متن کاملTrainability of Muscular Activity Level during Maximal Voluntary Co-Contraction: Comparison between Bodybuilders and Nonathletes
Antagonistic muscle pairs cannot be fully activated simultaneously, even with maximal effort, under conditions of voluntary co-contraction, and their muscular activity levels are always below those during agonist contraction with maximal voluntary effort (MVE). Whether the muscular activity level during the task has trainability remains unclear. The present study examined this issue by comparin...
