A Wearable System Featuring Biomimetic Spatially Distributed Iontronic Sensing Array for Dynamic Monitoring of Deep Tissue Modulus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A fully wearable system enables real‐time, dynamic, and accurate monitoring of Young's modulus in multilayer tissues containing deep muscle. It demonstrates high accuracy and robustness across simulations, benchtop validations, and human testing. It quantifies edema severity and tracks muscle stiffness during rest, loaded elbow flexion, rope skipping ...

Gait Recognition By Walking and Running: A Model-Based Approach

open access: yes, 2002
Gait is an emerging biometric for which some techniques, mainly holistic, have been developed to recognise people by their walking patterns. However, the possibility of recognising people by the way they run remains largely unexplored. The new analytical

Motor Neuron Pools of Synergistic Thigh Muscles Share Most of Their Synaptic Input

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2015
Neural control of synergist muscles is not well understood. Presumably, each muscle in a synergistic group receives some unique neural drive and some drive that is also shared in common with other muscles in the group. In this investigation, we sought to

Are all meats substitutes? A basket‐and‐expenditure‐based approach

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the relationship among animal‐based meat and plant‐based meat alternatives (PBMAs) using a basket‐and‐expenditure‐based choice experiment. In particular, we examine whether animal‐based meat products are substitutes or complements with PBMAs.

Real‐Time Control of a Humanoid Robot for Whole‐Body Tactile Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Inspired by human tactile interaction, this work integrates large‐area artificial skin feedback (force and proximity) into real‐time quadratic programming control for humanoids. This enables robots to leverage distributed sensing to manage forces, safely move around unknown and dynamic obstacles, and robustly handle objects with uncertain geometry ...

Human Gait Database for Normal Walk Collected by Smart Phone Accelerometer

open access: yes, 2020
The goal of this study is to introduce a comprehensive gait database of 93 human subjects who walked between two endpoints during two different sessions and record their gait data using two smartphones, one was attached to the right thigh and another one

‘Serious thigh muscle strains’: beware the intramuscular tendon which plays an important role in difficult hamstring and quadriceps muscle strains

open access: yesBritish Journal of Sports Medicine, 2015
Why do some hamstring and quadriceps strains take much longer to repair than others? Which injuries are more prone to recurrence? Intramuscular tendon injuries have received little attention as an element in ‘muscle strain’.
