Development of a Grasshopper‐Leg‐Inspired Back‐Type Exoskeleton for the Reduction of Muscle Activation During Stoop Activities

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers frequently suffer from musculoskeletal disorders, particularly lower back pain (LBP), mainly due to occupational ergonomic factors such as repetitive stooping and lifting. This study proposes using an exoskeleton to reduce LBP risk by providing external torque to the hip joints.

FIRE: A Human‐Centered Framework for Digital Twin Design

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of human perspectives into digital twin (DT) design for sociotechnical systems (STS) is essential for addressing the complex relationship between social and technical elements. Despite advances in DT technology, its application to STS demands a human‐centered approach that considers usability, user experience, and contextual ...
