A self organization approach to goal-directed multimodal locomotion based on Attractor Selection Mechanism [PDF]
2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015 The realization and utilization of multimodal locomotion to enable robots to accomplish useful tasks is a significantly challenging problem in robotics. Related to the challenge, it is crucial to notice that the locomotion dynamics of the robots is a result of interactions between a particular control structure and its body-environment dynamics.

BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2022 Background Lack of the neuromuscular control during locomotion in the knee joint leads to an increased risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in children. Hence, we aimed to explore the effects of a repetitive, model-oriented, and self-organized

Self-Organization of Lower Limb Motion in Human Locomotion
Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics, 1996 This project was undertaken to demonstrate the modal bifurcation displayed in human locomotion and the nature of motional self-organization found in the lower limb joints via the continuously measured walking and running of subjects on a treadmill for five minutes.

Self-rated health determinants in post-stroke individuals
Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2020 Objective: To investigate whether variables of function and disability, which have potential to be modified by rehabilitation, are determinants of self-rated health in post-stroke individuals in the chronic phase.

Tissue self-organization based on collective cell migration by contact activation of locomotion and chemotaxis [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 Abstract Despite their central role in multicellular organization, navigation rules that dictate cell rearrangement remain much to be elucidated. Contact between neighboring cells and diffusive attractant molecules are two of the major determinants of tissue-level patterning, however in most cases, molecular and ...

Mimicking Sub-Structures Self-Organization in Microtubules
Biomimetics, 2019 Microtubules (MTs) are highly dynamic polymers distributed in the cytoplasm of a biological cell. Alpha and beta globular proteins constituting the heterodimer building blocks combine to form these tubules through polymerization, controlled by the ...

A Quadruped Robot Exhibiting Spontaneous Gait Transitions from Walking to Trotting to Galloping
Scientific Reports, 2017 The manner in which quadrupeds change their locomotive patterns—walking, trotting, and galloping—with changing speed is poorly understood. In this paper, we provide evidence for interlimb coordination during gait transitions using a quadruped robot for ...

Rehabilitation of a patient with stroke
Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013 Stroke is a significant cause of long-term disability world-wide. The post-stroke disabilities are due to loss of locomotion, activity of daily living, cognition and communication skills.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cognitive impairment is a common non‐motor symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), negatively affecting autonomy and Quality of Life (QoL). Innovative rehabilitation strategies, such as semi‐immersive virtual reality (VR) and computerized cognitive training (CCT), may offer advantages over traditional cognitive rehabilitation (TCR ...
