Assessing the Effect of Cervical Transcutaneous Spinal Stimulation With an Upper Limb Robotic Exoskeleton and Surface Electromyography.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Transcutaneous spinal stimulation (TSS) is a promising rehabilitative intervention to restore motor function and coordination for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). The effects of TSS are most commonly assessed by evaluating muscle response t...

Automatic Detection of Fatigued Gait Patterns in Older Adults: An Intelligent Portable Device Integrating Force and Inertial Measurements with Machine Learning.

Annals of biomedical engineering
PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the feasibility of early detection of fatigued gait patterns for older adults through the development of a smart portable device.

Exploring mechanobiology network of bone and dental tissue based on Natural Language Processing.

Journal of biomechanics
Bone and cartilage tissues are physiologically dynamic organs that are systematically regulated by mechanical inputs. At cellular level, mechanical stimulation engages an intricate network where mechano-sensors and transmitters cooperate to manipulat...

Utilizing machine learning to analyze trunk movement patterns in women with postpartum low back pain.

Scientific reports

Universal optimal design in the vertebrate limb pattern and lessons for bioinspired design.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This paper broadly summarizes the variation of design features found in vertebrate limbs and analyses the resultant versatility and multifunctionality in order to make recommendations for bioinspired robotics. The vertebrate limb pattern (e.g. should...

Deep learning enables accurate soft tissue tendon deformation estimation in vivo via ultrasound imaging.

Scientific reports
Image-based deformation estimation is an important tool used in a variety of engineering problems, including crack propagation, fracture, and fatigue failure. These tools have been important in biomechanics research where measuring in vitro and in vi...

Estimating highest capacity propulsion performance using backward-directed force during walking evaluation for individuals with acquired brain injury.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
There are over 5.3 million Americans who face acquired brain injury (ABI)-related disability as well as almost 800,000 who suffer from stroke each year. To improve mobility and quality of life, rehabilitation professionals often focus on walking reco...

Design of a bipedal robot for water running based on a six-linkage mechanism inspired by basilisk lizards.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Legged robots have received widespread attention in academia and engineering owing to their excellent terrain adaptability. However, most legged robots can only adapt to high-hardness environments instead of flexible environments. Expanding the motio...

Predicting Knee Joint Contact Force Peaks During Gait Using a Video Camera or Wearable Sensors.

Annals of biomedical engineering
PURPOSE: Estimating loading of the knee joint may be helpful in managing degenerative joint diseases. Contemporary methods to estimate loading involve calculating knee joint contact forces using musculoskeletal modeling and simulation from motion cap...

Estimating three-dimensional foot bone kinematics from skin markers using a deep learning neural network model.

Journal of biomechanics
The human foot is a complex structure comprising 26 bones, whose coordinated movements facilitate proper deformation of the foot, ensuring stable and efficient locomotion. Despite their critical role, the kinematics of foot bones during movement rema...
