Abstract:

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture causes instability and impacts gait biomechanics, necessitating neuromuscular adaptations. The initial phase of gait is critical for stability and fall prevention, influenced by postural control and motor coordination. Objective: To analyze the behavior of the center of pressure (CoP) and neuromuscular adaptations during gait initiation in adults with a complete ACL rupture. Methodology: Twenty adults with a complete ACL rupture were evaluated. The CoP trajectory was divided into three phases of gait initiation: anticipatory, first step ex

Abstract:

The present paper deals with dynamically balanced ascending and descending gait generations of a 7 DOF biped robot negotiating a staircase. During navigation, the foot of the swing leg is assumed to follow a trajectory, after ensuring its kinematic constraints. Dynamic balance margin of the gaits are calculated by using the concept of zero-moment point (ZMP). In the present work, an approach different from the well-known semi-inverse method has been developed for trunk motion generation, in which it is initially generated based on static balance and then checked for its dynamic balance.

Abstract:

Balance in the human body’s movement is generally associated with different synergistic pathologies. The trunk is supported by one’s leg most of the time when walking. A person with poor balance may face limitation when performing their physical activities on a daily basis, and they may be more prone to having risk of fall. The ground reaction forces (GRFs), centre of pressure (COP), and centre of mass (COM) in quite standing posture were often measured for the evaluation of balance. Currently, there is still no experimental evidence or study on leg length discrepancy (LLD) during walking. Ana

Purpose. Powered lower-limb exoskeleton has gained considerable interests, since it can help patients with spinal cord injury(SCI) to stand and walk again. Providing walking assistance with SCI patients, most exoskeletons are designed to follow predefined gait trajectories, which makes the patient walk unnaturally and feels uncomfortable. Furthermore, exoskeletons with predefined gait trajectories cannot always maintain balance walking especially when encountering disturbances. Design/Methodology/Approach.

Abstract:

Balance recovery during walking requires complex sensory-motor integration. Mechanisms to avoid falls are active concomitantly with human locomotion motor patterns. It has been suggested that gait can be described by a set of motor modules (synergies), but little is known on the modularity of gait during recovery of balance due to unexpected slips. Our hypothesis was that muscular activation during reactive recovery of balance during gait has a modular organization. The aim of the study was to verify this hypothesis when perturbations were delivered in different directions. Eight healthy men w

Abstract:

Falls are common after stroke and often attributed to poor balance. Falls often occur during walking, suggesting that walking patterns may induce a loss of balance. Gait after stroke is frequently spatiotemporally asymmetric, which may decrease balance. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between spatiotemporal gait asymmetry and balance control. Thirty-nine individuals with chronic stroke walked at comfortable and fast speeds to calculate asymmetry ratios for step length, stance time, and swing time.

Abstract:

The initiation of human walking involves postural motor actions for body orientation and balance stabilization that must be effectively integrated with locomotion to allow safe and efficient transport. Our ability to coordinately adapt these functions to environmental or bodily changes through error-based motor learning is essential to effective performance. Predictive compensations for postural perturbations through anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) that stabilize mediolateral (ML) standing balance normally precede and accompany stepping.

Standing and walking balance control in humans relies on the transformation of sensory information to motor commands that drive muscles. Here, we evaluated whether sensorimotor transformations underlying walking balance control can be described by task-level center of mass kinematics feedback similar to standing balance control. We found that delayed linear feedback of center of mass position and velocity, but not delayed linear feedback from ankle angles and angular velocities, can explain reactive ankle muscle activity and joint moments in response to perturbations of walking across protocol

Abstract:

The maintenance of balance in dynamic conditions (e.g. during walking) is a necessary requirement that motor control must reach to avoid falls. However, this is a challenging situation, since to ensure the forward progression of the body, the center of mass must stay outside the base of support in the sagittal plane, and simultaneously remain inside the lateral borders in the frontal plane. Deviation from normative data of healthy subjects in dynamic balance could be used to quantify gait stability, fall risk and to provide hints for rehabilitation. However, normative data can be influenced by

Abstract:

The development of humanoid robotics during the last decades has undoubtedly resulted in numerous successful realizations in this area. One of the most important tasks that have been in the research focus is bipedal walk, which, despite the progress that has been made, has still remained an intriguing research task. The problem is not only how to realize a sustainable walk in an unstructured environment, requiring on-line trajectory planning and changes of gait parameters (turning, stopping, acceleration and deceleration, switching from the walk on a flat ground to the walk on an inclined surf

Abstract:

The aim of the studies reported here was to quantify changes in balance control for stance and gait tasks with age and to pinpoint possible advantages and difficulties in using these tasks and measures derived from them to identify pathological balance control in patients. Some 470 normal subjects in the age range 6 to 82 were examined for a battery of 14 stance and gait tasks. During the tasks, angular velocity transducers mounted at lumbar 1–3 measured pitch and roll angular velocities of the body. A combination of outcome measures from several tasks was used to create an overall balance con

Abstract Background Two-thirds of patients with stroke experience only mild impairments in the acute phase, and the proportion of patients &lt;70 years is increasing. Knowledge about balance and gait and predictive factors are scarce for this group. Objective The objective of this study was to explore balance and gait in the acute phase and after 3 and 12 months in patients ≤70 years with minor ischemic stroke (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≤3). This study also explored factors predicting impaired balance after 12 months. Design This study was designed as an explorative

Abstract:

There is a lack of evidence about the ways in which balance ability influences the kinematic and kinetic parameters and muscle activities during gait among healthy individuals. The hypothesis is that balance ability would be associated with the lower limb kinematics, kinetics and muscle activities during gait. Twenty-nine healthy volunteers (Age 32.8 ± 9.1; 18 males and 11 females) performed a Star Excursion Balance test to measure their dynamic balance and walked for at least three trials in order to obtain a good quality of data.

Abstract:

Evidence of long-term modification of behavior—in particular, gait alterations in response to repeated exposure to slips—within the locomotor-balance control system is limited. The purpose of this study was to examine whether improvements in fall-resisting behavior as reflected by improvements in gait stability could be retained on a long-term basis. Eight healthy young subjects were exposed to a block of repeated slip trials during a single acquisition session consisting of five repeated slip exposures; the same subjects were then re-tested using the same protocol at a minimum of 12 mo later.
