The basic routine movements for elderly people are not easily accessible due to the weak
muscles and impaired nerves in their lower extremity. In the last few years, many robotic …

▪ Abstract The modern study of a crowd as a flowing continuum is a recent development.
Distinct from a classical fluid because of the property that a crowd has the capacity to think …

Background Approximately 20% of traumatic cervical spinal cord injuries result in
tetraplegia. Neuroprosthetics are being developed to manage this condition and thus …

We present the design and evaluation of a multi-articular soft exosuit that is portable, fully
autonomous, and provides assistive torques to the wearer at the ankle and hip during …

We describe the design and control of a wearable robotic device powered by pneumatic
artificial muscle actuators for use in ankle–foot rehabilitation. The design is inspired by the …

In this paper we present a soft lower-extremity robotic exosuit intended to augment normal
muscle function in healthy individuals. Compared to previous exoskeletons, the device is …

In the nearly six decades since researchers began to explore methods of creating them,
exoskeletons have progressed from the stuff of science fiction to nearly commercialized …

Wheeled vehicles are often incapable of transporting heavy materials over rough terrain or
up staircases. Lower extremity exoskeletons supplement human intelligence with the …

In this study we describe an ambulatory system for estimation of spatio-temporal parameters
during long periods of walking. This original method based on wavelet analysis is proposed …

The metabolic energy cost of walking is determined, to a large degree, by body mass, but it
is not clear how body composition and mass distribution influence this cost. We tested the …
