Design and control of a bio-inspired soft wearable robotic device for ankle-foot rehabilitation.

Yong-Lae Park, +11 more
- 16 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: The design and control of a wearable robotic device powered by pneumatic artificial muscle actuators for use in ankle-foot rehabilitation inspired by the biological musculoskeletal system of the human foot and lower leg, mimicking the morphology and the functionality of the biological muscle-tendon-ligament structure is described.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Bio-inspired active soft orthotic device for ankle foot pathologies

Yong-Lae Park, +6 more
TL;DR: The design of an active soft ankle-foot orthotic device powered by pneumatic artificial muscles for treating gait pathologies associated with neuromuscular disorders is described, inspired by the biological musculoskeletal system of a human foot and a lower leg, and mimics the muscle-tendon-ligament structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infant Bouncing: The Assembly and Tuning of Action Systems.

Eugene C. Goldfield, +2 more
- 01 Aug 1993 - 
TL;DR: It is found an initial assembly phase in which kicking was irregular and variable in period, and a tuning phase with more periodic kicking, followed by the sudden appearance of long bouts of sustained bouncing, consistent with a forced mass-spring operating at resonance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coordination of sucking, swallowing, and breathing and oxygen saturation during early infant breast-feeding and bottle-feeding

Eugene C. Goldfield, +5 more
- 28 Aug 2006 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that the overall feeding pattern and oxygenation of system 1 are closer to the physiologic norm than system 2, and infants using system 2 had a greater instability in the coordination of sucking, swallowing, and breathing and more perturbation of breathing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applicability of Shape Memory Alloy Wire for an Active, Soft Orthotic

Leia Stirling, +6 more
- 08 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) wires that were annealed into springs to develop an active, soft orthotic (ASO) for the knee, which provided variable assistances depending on factors such as when, during the gait cycle, the springs are activated; ongoing muscle activity level; and needs of the wearer.
