Healthy individuals highly regulate their whole body angular momentum (WBAM) during walking. Since WBAM regulation is essential in maintaining balance, a better understanding is required on how healthy individuals recover from WBAM perturbations. We therefore studied how healthy individuals recover WBAM in the sagittal plane. WBAM can be regulated...
Background
In the last two decades, lower-limb exoskeletons have been developed to assist human standing and locomotion. One of the ongoing challenges is the cooperation between the exoskeleton balance support and the wearer control. Here we present a cooperative ankle-exoskeleton control strategy to assist in balance recovery after unexpected dist...
Centre of mass (CoM) motion during human balance recovery is largely influenced by the ground reaction force (GRF) and the centre of pressure (CoP). During gait, foot placement creates a region of possible CoP locations in the following double support (DS). This study aims to increase insight into how humans modulate the CoP during DS, and which Co...
