Experiencing Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies, 2018Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) offers rich opportunities for interaction. By varying stimulation parameters (amplitudes, pulse widths and frequencies), EMS can be used to either trigger muscle contractions, and so convey object affordances or guide user movements, or provide rich haptic feedback.

Electrical stimulation and muscle strengthening
Annales de Réadaptation et de Médecine Physique, 2008To identify the effects of application methods and indications of direct muscle electrostimulation on strength gain.Literature review and analysis of articles from Medline database with the following entries: muscular or neuromuscular, electromyostimulation, electrical stimulation, strengthening, strength training, immobilization, muscle dystrophy, bed-

Adaptive Control of Electrically Stimulated Muscle
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1987A discrete time adaptive control system for electrically stimulated muscle has been designed and evaluated experimentally. The control system is based on a previously developed discrete time model of electrically stimulated muscle. Performance was evaluated on the basis of stability and responses to step, ramp, and sinusoidal inputs.

Variability in Muscle Adaptation to Electrical Stimulation
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2013The aims were to investigate the plasticity of the myosin heavy chain (MHC) phenotype following neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and to assess the correlation between MHC isoform distribution and muscle fibre conduction velocity (MFCV).14 men were subjected to 24 sessions of quadriceps NMES.

A Method for Identification of Electrically Stimulated Muscle
2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005We present a model structure and a method for identifying the dynamics of electrically stimulated muscle. The model structure is sufficiently rich to describe a wide set of muscle behavior. It consists of (i) an input static nonlinearity representing the muscle's recruitment properties, (ii) a linear dynamical system representing the contraction ...

Transmucosal Electrical Stimulation of Laryngeal Muscles
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1989A new technique is described that enables discrete activation of individual laryngeal muscles by electrical stimulation across overlying mucosa. In 15 dogs, we defined six distinct motor points by transmucosal stimulation at 3 mA while observing the resulting characteristic position of the arytenoid and true vocal cord.

Optimising Automatic Calibration of Electric Muscle Stimulation
Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2021Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) has become a popular interaction technology in Human-Computer Interaction; allowing the computer to take direct control of the user's body. To date, however, the explorations have been limited to coarse, toy examples, due to the low resolution of achievable control.

Muscle damage induced by electrical stimulation
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2011Electrical stimulation (ES) induces muscle damage that is characterised by histological alterations of muscle fibres and connective tissue, increases in circulating creatine kinase (CK) activity, decreases in muscle strength and development of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).

The Mechanisms of the Action of Electrical Stimulation of Muscles
Urologia Internationalis, 2010The mechanisms of the action of electrical stimulation of muscles are discussed. We believe that the principal cause for the good results obtained in cases of stress incontinence with electrical stimulation must be due to the formation of a better reflex in contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor.

Electric stimulation of the upper airway muscle
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 1998In various studies, it has been postulated that pharyngeal collapse occurring during sleep in obstructive sleep apnea may be alleviated by stimulating the genioglossus muscle. Basic experiments have demonstrated that neuromuscular stimulation applied intraorally via electrodes or by direct neural stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve might improve upper
