An Adaptive Hammerstein Model for FES-Induced Torque Prediction Based on Variable Forgetting Factor Recursive Least Squares Algorithm

An Adaptive Hammerstein Model for FES-Induced Torque Prediction Based on Variable Forgetting Factor Recursive Least Squares Algorithm 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Modeling the muscle response to functional electrical stimulation (FES) is an important step during model-based FES control system design. The Hammerstein structure is widely used in simulating this nonlinear biomechanical… read more

Multi-directional Ankle Impedance During Standing Postures

Author(s)3: Guilherme A. Ribeiro, Lauren N. Knop, Mo Rastgaar
Multi-directional Ankle Impedance During Standing Postures 592 1000 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
In this study, we estimated the multi-directional ankle mechanical impedance in two degrees-of-freedom (DOF) during standing, and determined how the stiffness, damping, and inertia vary with ankle angle and ankle torque at different postures. read more
