In the single middle leg preparation of the stick insect walking on a treadmill, the activity of flexor and extensor tibiae motor neurons and muscles, which are responsible for the movement of the tibia in stance and swing phases, respectively, was investigated with respect to changes in stepping velocity. Changes in stepping velocity were correlated with cycle period. There was a close correla...

A number of in vitro, invasive in vivo, and non-invasive marker based multi-segment foot models (MSFMs) have reported significant motion in the articulations distal to the calcaneus during gait. Few studies, however, have applied a MSFM to the investigation of the effect of foot posture on gait kinematics. Differences in stance phase kinematics between participants with low-mobile (LMF) (n=11) ...

This paper presents a method to optimize the energy efficiency of walking bipedal robots by more than 50 % in a speed range from 0.3 to 2.3m/s using elastic couplings – mechanical springs with movement speed independent parameters. The considered robot consists of a trunk, two stiff legs and two actuators in the hip joints. It is modeled as underactuated system to make use of its natural dynami...

The passive dynamics of bipedal limbs alone are sufficient to produce a walking motion, without need for control. Humans augment these dynamics with muscles, actively coordinated to produce stable and economical walking. Present robots using passive dynamics walk much slower, perhaps because they lack elastic muscles that couple the joints. Elastic properties are well known to enhance running g...

The first functional load-carrying and energetically autonomous exoskeleton was demonstrated at U.C. Berkeley, walking at the average speed of 0.9 m/s (2 mph) while carrying a 34 kg (75 lb) payload. The original BLEEX sensitivity amplification controller, based on positive feedback, was designed to increase the closed loop system sensitivity to its wearer’s forces and torques without any direct...

Because conventional above-knee prostheses are passive type device with constant mechanical properties, knee joint motions are not similar to that of normal persons. On the other hand, active type prostheses can improve swing phase gait but these are expensive, heavy and consume large energy. So the semi-active type prostheses are presented. We propose to use the rotary MR damper. The torque di...

The aim of this study was to examine the strategies used by human subjects to adapt their walking pattern to a velocity-dependent resistance applied against hip and knee movements. Subjects first walked on a treadmill with their lower limbs strapped to an exoskeletal robotic gait orthosis with no resistance against leg motions (null condition). Afterward, a velocity-dependent resistance was app...

The inter-joint coordination in leg 4 of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii was investigated while they travelled freely along straight paths. Video analysis of the kinematics of the leg's three-dimensional motion, combined with a statistical method based on conjugate cross-correlation functions, showed stable inter-joint coordination in the leg kinematics. In particular, the inter-joint coordina...

This paper presents a robust control strategy driving an actuated compass gait robot towards steady and periodic gaits. By robust we mean a large basin of attraction for the limit cycle. The originality lies in the generation of the swing leg reference angle and speed as a simple function of the supporting leg angle. Simulations and experimentation with a prototype showed that the system exhibi...
