Uncontrolled manifold hypothesis: organization of leg joint variance in humans while walking in a wide range of speeds

V Monaco, P Tropea, LA Rinaldi, S Micera - Human movement science, 2018 - Elsevier
This study aimed at investigating the organization of joint angle variability during walking by
using the uncontrolled manifold (UCM) theory. We tested two hypotheses: i. the coordinative …

Mediolateral footpath stabilization during walking in people following stroke

PC Kao, S Srivastava - PLoS One, 2018 - journals.plos.org
