چکیده

An important next step is to increase the capabilities of musculo-skeletal simulations to accurately predict robust stability of whole-body dynamic locomotion. Accomplishing this step is expected to positively enable biomechanical simulation, prosthetics, rehabilitation, and robotics research. Greater stability and robustness of musculo-skeletal simulations enables vertical advancement of the field. The longterm outcomes of this work will enable improved understanding and rehabilitation of gait dysfunction and enhanced tools to analyze stability and robustness of gait.

Assessment of Dynamic Stability During Walking in Below-knee Amputation

Purpose: Dynamic stability reduces in patients with unilateral amputation; so, it is important to recognize changes in balance during walking. This study aimed to investigate the dynamic stability of unilateral below-knee amputation during walking. Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental study, in which 10 patients with knee amputation and 10 healthy young people participated. The ...

From Passive Dynamic Walking to Passive Turning of Biped walker

Dynamically stable biped robots mimicking human locomotion have received significant attention over the last few decades. Formerly, the existence of stable periodic gaits for straight walking of passive biped walkers was well known and investigated as the notion of passive dynamic walking. This study is aimed to elaborate this notion in the case of three dimensional (3D) walking and extend it f...

Energy Dissipation Rate Control Via a Semi-Analytical Pattern Generation Approach for Planar Three-Legged Galloping Robot based on the Property of Passive Dynamic Walking

In this paper an Energy Dissipation Rate Control (EDRC) method is introduced, which could provide stable walking or running gaits for legged robots. This method is realized by developing a semi-analytical pattern generation approach for a robot during each Single Support Phase (SSP). As yet, several control methods based on passive dynamic walking have been proposed by researchers to provide an...

Stabilization and Walking Control for a Simple Passive Walker Using Computed Torque Method (RESEARCH NOTE)

Abstract   The simple passive dynamic walker can walk down a shallow downhill slope with no external control or energy input. Nevertheless, the period-one gait stability is only possible over a very narrow range of slopes. Since the passive gaits are extremely sensitive to slope angles, it is important to use a control strategy in order to achieve a wide range of stable walking. The computed to...
