Most gait training systems are designed for acute and subacute neurological inpatients.
Many systems are used for relearning gait movements (nonfunctional training) or gait cycle …

This article addresses the potential clinical value of techniques based on surface
electromyography (sEMG) in rehabilitation medicine with specific focus on …

The question of how the inverted position of a pendulum can be stabilized is of fundamental
importance for understanding human balancing tasks. Applications range from postural …

We designed a Bragg mirror structure with an SiO 2 top layer to create a resonance in the
ultraviolet wavelength range, near the absorption peak position of various proteins. We …

Models for the stabilization of an inverted pendulum figure prominently in studies of human
balance control. Surprisingly, fluctuations in measures related to the vertical displacement …

Movements of the human biological system have adapted to the physical environment under
the 1-g gravitational force on Earth. However, the effects of microgravity in space on the …

Process interference or sharing of attentional resources between cognitive tasks and
balance control during upright standing has been well documented. Attentional costs …

This paper proposes a new intermittent control model during human quiet standing, which is
consisted of postulated “regular intervention” and “imminent intervention”. The regular …

Postural impairment due to neuro-degenerative disorders such as Parkinson's Disease (PD)
leads to restricted gait patterns, fall-related injuries, decreased mobility, and loss of …

Balancing the body in upright standing and balancing a stick on the fingertip are two
examples of unstable tasks that, in spite of strong motor and sensory differences, appear to …
