Effects of mechanical assistance on muscle activity and motor performance during isometric elbow flexion.

Journal of electromyography and kinesiology : official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiological Kinesiology Nov 30, 2019
Mechanical assistance on joint movement is generally beneficial; however, its effects on cooperative performance and muscle activity needs to be further explored. This study examined how motor performance and muscle activity are altered when mechanic...

Human-mimetic soft robot joint for shock absorption through joint dislocation.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Nov 6, 2019
This paper presents a human-mimetic manipulator capable of shock absorption by using dislocation at the soft joint. A one degree-of-freedom (DOF) soft robot joint was developed based on the human elbow-joint structure, especially mimicking the humero...

Integration, Sensing, and Control of a Modular Soft-Rigid Pneumatic Lower Limb Exoskeleton.

Soft robotics Oct 11, 2019
This article presents the system integration, sensing, and control of a novel modular soft-rigid pneumatic exoskeleton for lower limb. The proposed exoskeleton consists of three soft hinges (to drive the hip, knee, and ankle joints) and four rigid li...

Effect of surgical parameters on the biomechanical behaviour of bicondylar total knee endoprostheses - A robot-assisted test method based on a musculoskeletal model.

Scientific reports Oct 10, 2019
The complicated interplay of total knee replacement (TKR) positioning and patient-specific soft tissue conditions still causes a considerable number of unsatisfactory outcomes. Therefore, we deployed a robot-assisted test method, in which a six-axis ...

Machine Learning Algorithms Can Use Wearable Sensor Data to Accurately Predict Six-Week Patient-Reported Outcome Scores Following Joint Replacement in a Prospective Trial.

The Journal of arthroplasty Jul 24, 2019
BACKGROUND: Tracking patient-generated health data (PGHD) following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) may enable data-driven early intervention to improve clinical results. We aim to demonstrate the feasibility of combining machine learning (ML) with PG...
