Can lateral tenodesis improve the rotational stability of the ACL reconstruction? A finite element analysis

One of the most common knee injuries is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) rupture with severe implications on knee stability. The usual treatment is the ACL Reconstruction (ACLR) surgery where the surgeon replaces the torn ligament with a graft in an ef ...

Intelligent plantar pressure offloading for the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers and amputations

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Christian Köchli, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Kenny Jeanmonod, Bhawnath Tiwari

The high prevalence of lower extremity ulceration and amputation in people with diabetes is strongly linked to difficulties in achieving and maintaining a reduction of high plantar pressures (PPs) which remains an important risk factor. The effectiveness o ...

Knee adduction moment decomposition: Toward better clinical decision-making

Kamiar Aminian, Xavier Crevoisier, Robin Martin

Knee adduction moment (KAM) is correlated with the progression of medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Although a generic gait modification can reduce the KAM in some patients, it may have a reverse effect on other patients. We proposed the "decomposed ground ...

Foot-Interfaces Control and Human-Robot Interaction in Four-Handed Manipulation

Jacob Hernandez Sanchez

Humans have a great capacity to perform complex manipulations. However, there are many tasks for which two hands are not enough, such as in surgery. For such tasks, a dyad of people is required. However, when not used to work together, a dyad collaboration ...

Uncontrolled manifold analysis of the effects of a perturbation-based training on the organization of leg joint variance in cerebellar ataxia

Silvestro Micera

Walking patterns of persons affected by cerebellar ataxia (CA) are characterized by wide stride-to-stride variability ascribable to: the background pathology-related sensory-motor noise; the motor redundancy, i.e., an excess of elemental degrees of freedom ...

Neuromuscular Controller Embedded in a Powered Ankle Exoskeleton: Effects on Gait, Clinical Features and Subjective Perspective of Incomplete Spinal Cord Injured Subjects

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini

Powered exoskeletons are among the emerging technologies claiming to assist functional ambulation. The potential to adapt robotic assistance based on specific motor abilities of incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) subjects, is crucial to optimize Human-Ro ...

Intrinsic fracture behavior of Mg-Y alloys

William Curtin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

Pure magnesium (Mg) is an attractive metal for structural applications due to its low density, but also has low ductility and low fracture toughness. Dilute alloying of Mg with rare earth elements in small amounts improves the ductility, but the effects of ...

Bio-inspired standing balance controller for a full-mobilization exoskeleton

Auke Ijspeert, Mohamed Bouri, Jemina Fasola, Tristan Hubert Vouga, Romain Pierre François Baud

This paper presents a novel method to perform automatic standing balance in a full mobilization exoskeleton. It exploits the locked ankle and the curved foot sole of the exoskeleton TWIICE. The idea is to use the knees to roll the sole and change the posit ...

Use-Dependent Plasticity in Human Primary Motor Hand Area: Synergistic Interplay Between Training and Immobilization

Estelle Emeline Raffin

Training and immobilization are powerful drivers of use-dependent plasticity in human primary motor hand area (M1HAND). In young right-handed volunteers, corticomotor representations of the left first dorsal interosseus and abductor digiti minimi muscles w ...

Neural and muscular factors both contribute to plantar-flexor muscle weakness in older fallers

Jean-Baptiste Mignardot

Plantar-flexor muscles are key muscles in the control of postural sway. Older fallers present lower maximal plantar-flexor performance than older non-fallers; however, the mechanisms underlying this motor impairment remain to be elucidated. This study aime ...
