Optimal Walking of an Underactuated Planar Biped with Segmented Torso [PDF]

, 2014
Recently, underactuated bipeds with pointed feet have been studied to achieve dynamic and energy efficient robot walking patterns. However, these studies usually simplify a robot torso as one link, which is different from a human torsos containing 33 ...

Enhancing Neuroplasticity in the Chronic Phase After Stroke: Effects of a Soft Robotic Exosuit on Training Intensity and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor

IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2023
Objective: High intensity training may enhance neuroplasticity after stroke; however, gait deficits limit the ability to achieve and sustain high walking training intensities.

Walking in Circles: Making Stories out of Landscapes

Postscriptum Polonistyczne, 2021
Using the example of her novel, Call of The Undertow, published in 2013, Linda Cracknell writes about how repeated walks in a new place rich with possibility resulted in a fictional narrative out of observation and sensation.

Walking perception by walking observers [PDF]

Journal of Vision, 2004
People frequently analyze the actions of other people for the purpose of action coordination. To understand whether such self-relative action perception differs from other-relative action perception, the authors had observers either compare their own walking speed with that of a point-light walker or compare the walking speeds of 2 point-light walkers.

Probabilistic modeling of walking excitation for building floors [PDF]

, 2009
Slender floor structures are becoming increasingly prone to excessive vibration due to human-induced walking excitation. To prevent discomfort of floor occupants and/or malfunctioning of sensitive equipment, it is necessary to have a reliable means of ...

Design and Evaluation of a Wearable Powered Foot Orthosis with Metatarsophalangeal Joint

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2018
The metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints play critical roles in human locomotion. Functional restriction or loss of MTP joints will lead to lower walking speed, poorer walking balance, and more consumed metabolic energy cost compared with normal walking ...
