Author(s)3: Chuanxin M. Niu, Yong Bao, Cheng Zhuang, Si Li, Tong Wang, Lijun Cui, Qing Xie, Ning Lan
Synergy-Based FES for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation of Upper-Limb Motor Functions 780 435 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

        Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is capable of activating muscles that are under-recruited in neurological diseases, such as stroke. Therefore, FES provides a promising technology for assisting upper-limb motor functions…

Voluntary Control of Residual Antagonistic Muscles in Transtibial Amputees: Feedforward Ballistic Contractions and Implications for Direct Neural Control of Powered Lower Limb Prostheses

Voluntary Control of Residual Antagonistic Muscles in Transtibial Amputees: Feedforward Ballistic Contractions and Implications for Direct Neural Control of Powered Lower Limb Prostheses
Author(s)3: Stephanie Huang, He Huang
Voluntary Control of Residual Antagonistic Muscles in Transtibial Amputees: Feedforward Ballistic Contractions and Implications for Direct Neural Control of Powered Lower Limb Prostheses 780 680 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

  Discrete, rapid (i.e., ballistic like) muscle activation patterns have been observed in ankle muscles (i.e., plantar flexors and dorsiflexors) of able-bodied individuals during voluntary posture control. This observation motivated…

Shear Waves Reveal Viscoelastic Changes in Skeletal Muscles after Hemispheric Stroke
Author(s)3: Ghulam Rasool, Allison B. Wang, William Z. Rymer, Sabrina S. M. Lee
Shear Waves Reveal Viscoelastic Changes in Skeletal Muscles after Hemispheric Stroke 780 269 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

    We investigated alterations in material properties such as elasticity and viscoelasticity of stroke-affected muscles using ultrasound induced shear waves and mechanical models. We used acoustic radiation force to generate…

Comparing Surface and Intramuscular Electromyography for Simultaneous and Proportional Control Based on a Musculoskeletal Model: A Pilot Study

Comparing Surface and Intramuscular Electromyography for Simultaneous and Proportional Control Based on a Musculoskeletal Model: A Pilot Study
Author(s)3: Dustin L. Crouch, Lizhi Pan, William Filer, Jonathan W. Stallings, He Huang
Comparing Surface and Intramuscular Electromyography for Simultaneous and Proportional Control Based on a Musculoskeletal Model: A Pilot Study 502 415 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

     Simultaneous and proportional control (SPC) of neural-machine interfaces uses magnitudes of smoothed electromyograms (EMG) as control inputs. Though surface EMG (sEMG) electrodes are common for clinical neural-machine interfaces, intramuscular…

Myoelectric Control Based on a Generic Musculoskeletal Model: Toward a Multi-User Neural-Machine Interface
Author(s)3: Lizhi Pan, Dustin L. Crouch, He Huang
Myoelectric Control Based on a Generic Musculoskeletal Model: Toward a Multi-User Neural-Machine Interface 641 551 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

   This paper aimed to develop a novel electromyography (EMG)-based neural-machine interface (NMI) that is user-generic for continuously predicting coordinated motion between metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and wrist flexion/extension. The NMI requires…

Fine-Wire Electromyography Response to Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in the Triceps Surae

Fine-Wire Electromyography Response to Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in the Triceps Surae
Author(s)3: Paul P. Breen, Anand V Nene, Gearóid ÓLaighin, Pierce A. Grace
Fine-Wire Electromyography Response to Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in the Triceps Surae 556 235 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

Abstract Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has previously been used to enhance venous return from the lower leg. By artificially activating lower leg muscles, venous blood may be effectively ejected from…

Cross-Comparison of Three Electromyogram Decomposition Algorithms Assessed With Experimental and Simulated Data
Author(s)3: Chenyun Dai, Yejin Li, Anita Christie, Paolo Bonato, Kevin C. McGill, Edward A. Clancy
Cross-Comparison of Three Electromyogram Decomposition Algorithms Assessed With Experimental and Simulated Data 556 235 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

Abstract The reliability of clinical and scientific information provided by algorithms that automatically decompose the electromyogram (EMG) depends on the algorithms’ accuracies. We used experimental and simulated data to assess…
