Skeletal-level control-based forward dynamic analysis of acquired healthy and assisted gait motion
(Springer, 2018-07-09)
[Abstract]
Gait analysis is commonly addressed through inverse dynamics. However, forward dynamics can be advantageous when descending to muscular level, as it allows that activation and contraction equations are integrated ...
Determination of the 3D Human Spine Posture from Wearable Inertial Sensors and a Multibody Model of the Spine
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Determination of spine posture is of great interest for the effective prevention, evaluation, treatment and evolution monitoring of spinal disorders. Limitations of traditional imaging systems, including cost, ...
Roll Angle Estimation of a Motorcycle through Inertial Measurements
(MDPI, 2021-10)
[Abstract] Currently, the interest in creating autonomous driving vehicles and progressively more sophisticated active safety systems is growing enormously, being a prevailing importance factor for the end user when choosing ...
The use of wearable inertial sensors and workplace-based exercises to reduce lateral epicondylitis in the workstation of a textile logistics center
(MDPI, 2023-05-27)
[Abstract]: People whose jobs involve repetitive motions of the wrist and forearm can suffer from lateral epicondylitis, which is a significant burden on both the individual and the employer due to treatment costs, reduced ...
Comparison of Several Muscle Modeling Alternatives for Computationally Intensive Algorithms in Human Motion Dynamics
(Springer, 2022-04-05)
[Abstract] Several approaches are currently employed to address the predictive simulation of human motion, having in common their high computational demand. Muscle modeling seems to be an essential ingredient to provide ...
Energy Expenditure Estimation During Crutch-Orthosis-Assisted Gait of a Spinal-Cord-Injured Subject
(Frontiers Media SA, 2019)
[Abstract] Determination of muscle energy expenditure by computer modeling and analysis is of great interest to estimate the whole body energy consumption, while avoiding the complex character of in vivo experimental ...
A Fair and EMG‑Validated Comparison of Recruitment Criteria, Musculotendon Models and Muscle Coordination Strategies, for the Inverse‑Dynamics Based Optimization of Muscle Forces During Gait
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2021-01)
[Abstract] Experimental studies and EMG collections suggest that a specific strategy of muscle coordination is chosen by the central nervous system to perform a given motor task. A popular mathematical approach for solving ...
Non-intrusive parallelization of multibody system dynamic simulations
(Springer, 2009)
[Abstract] This paper evaluates two non-intrusive parallelization techniques for multibody system dynamics: parallel sparse linear equation solvers and OpenMP. Both techniques can be applied to existing simulation software ...
Using Accelerometer Data to Tune the Parameters of an Extended Kalman Filter for Optical Motion Capture: Preliminary Application to Gait Analysis
(MDPI, 2021-02)
[Abstract] Optical motion capture is currently the most popular method for acquiring motion data in biomechanical applications. However, it presents a number of problems that make the process difficult and inefficient, ...
Lower Back Injury Prevention and Sensitization of Hip Hinge with Neutral Spine Using Wearable Sensors during Lifting Exercises
(MDPI, 2021-08)
[Abstract] The popularization and industrialization of fitness over the past decade, with the rise of
big box gyms and group classes, has reduced the quality of the basic formation and assessment
of practitioners, which ...
