Cognitive Loading Affects Motor Awareness and Movement Kinematics but Not Locomotor Trajectories during Goal-Directed Walking in a Virtual Reality Environment

Kamiar Aminian, Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape, Arnaud Barré

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of cognitive loading on movement kinematics and trajectory formation during goal-directed walking in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The secondary objective was to measure how participant ...

Neurorehabilitation and neuroprosthetic technologies to regain motor function following spinal cord injury

Rubia van den Brand

Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to a range of disabilities, including locomotor impairments that seriously diminish the patients’ quality of life. Strategies to promote functional recovery after severe SCI will undoubtedly include approaches to regenerate i ...

(Un)awareness of unilateral spatial neglect: A quantitative evaluation of performance in visuo-spatial tasks

Roberta Ronchi, Giuseppe Vallar

Right-brain-damaged patients with unilateral spatial neglect are usually unaware (anosognosic) about their spatial deficits. However, in the scientific literature there is a lack of systematic and quantitative evaluation of this kind of unawareness, despit ...

Advanced Automotive System based on Modular Multilevel Converter

Rosa Martel Danoary Tsirinomeny

Battery packs in recent electric vehicles (EVs) have high energy and high power densities which exerts a strong thermal stress upon them. This means that the individual battery cells are more prone to decline away and eventually fail early because of an ex ...

Modular Converter Architecture for Medium Voltage Ultra Fast EV Charging Stations: Dual Half-Bridge-based Isolation Stage

Alfred Rufer, Michail Vasiladiotis, Behrooz Bahrani, Niklaus Burger

The concept of ultra fast charging of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is expected to contribute significantly to their widespread utilization in long-distance travels. Towards this direction, emerging power electronic topologies will be the key components of the d ...

Kinematic primitives for walking and trotting gaits of a quadruped robot with compliant legs

Auke Ijspeert, Alexander Spröwitz, Mostafa Ajallooeian, Alexandre Tuleu

In this work we research the role of body dynamics in the complexity of kinematic patterns in a quadruped robot with compliant legs. Two gait patterns, lateral sequence walk and trot, along with leg length control patterns of different complexity were impl ...

The aging motor system as a model for plastic changes of GABA-mediated intracortical inhibition and their behavioral relevance

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Since GABAA-mediated intracortical inhibition has been shown to underlie plastic changes throughout the lifespan from development to aging, here, the aging motor system was used as a model to analyze the interdependence of plastic alterations within the in ...

A NEW APPROACH FOR CEREBELLO-THALAMIC MOTOR NETWORK EVALUATION IN ASYMPTOMATIC PREMUTATION CARRIERS AT RISK FOR FXTAS

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Elena Najdenovska, Naghmeh Ghazaleh

Fragile-X tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late onset movement disorder affecting FMR1 premutation carriers. In our recent work (Battistella et al., 2013, ) we demonstrated a unique pattern of preclinical changes in young asymptomatic carriers involving ...

Power Compensation Approach and Double Frame Control for Grid Connected Converters

Alfred Rufer, Daniel Siemaszko

The handling of weak networks with asymmetric disturbances implies the accurate handling of the second harmonic component appearing under unbalanced networks. This paper proposes a two-step approach using classic vector control for operating the current co ...
