An alternative approach to isometric exercise training prescription for cardiovascular health

open access: yes, 2018
Isometric exercise training (IET) effectively reduces resting blood pressure (BP). Traditionally, IET protocols use hand grip or leg extension exercise. IET using larger muscle mass may influence the rate and magnitude of BP reductions.

Robotic Control for Human–Robot Collaborative Assembly Based on Digital Human Model and Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a robotic control method for human–robot collaborative assembly based on a biomechanics‐constrained digital human model. Reinforcement learning is used to generate physiologically plausible human motion trajectories, which are integrated into a virtual environment for robot control learning.

Effect of maturity status on lower-limb strength testing reliability in academy football players from an elite professional club

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Sport Science
Introduction: In top-level football, clubs seek to identify young talent. This identification requires using tests to notably evaluate the lower-limb strength, which is a decisive physical quality in football performance. However, the tests used are not

Brain Activity During Unilateral Physical and Imagined Isometric Contractions

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
By convention, it is believed that the ipsilateral side of the body is controlled by the contralateral side of the brain. Past studies measuring brain activity primarily recorded changes before and after an intervention is performed on one side of the ...

Reductions in systolic blood pressure achieved by hypertensives with three isometric training sessions per week are maintained with a single session per week

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
Isometric handgrip or (wall) squat exercise performed three times per week produces reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP) in adults with hypertension.

A note on isometric immersions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Australian Mathematical Society. Series A. Pure Mathematics and Statistics, 1982
AbstractLet N be a complete connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvatures bounded from below. Let M be a complete simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvatures KM(σ)≤ −a2 (a ≥ 0) and with dimension < 2 dim N. Suppose that N is isometrically immersed in M and that its image lies in a closed ball of radius ρ. Then sup(KN(σ) −

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

MicroRoboScope: A Portable and Integrated Mechatronic Platform for Magnetic and Acoustic Microrobotic Experimentation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the MicroRoboScope, a highly integrated, compact, and portable microrobotic experimentation platform combining electromagnetic and acoustic actuation with real‐time visual feedback into a single, end‐to‐end device. The system enables closed‐loop control and tracking algorithm experimentation within an accessible and unified hardware ...
