Tail use improves performance on soft substrates in models of early vertebrate land locomotors.

Science (New York, N.Y.) Jul 8, 2016
In the evolutionary transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial environment, early tetrapods faced the challenges of terrestrial locomotion on flowable substrates, such as sand and mud of variable stiffness and incline. The morphology and range of mo...

Shifting the balance of human standing: Inter-limb coordination for the control of a robotic balance simulation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference Jan 1, 2015
Learning to maintain standing balance in the presence of a paretic limb is an important recovery process for many stroke survivors. In this study, we used a robotic balance simulator to investigate whether manipulating medial-lateral or anterior-post...
