Sensory modulation of gait characteristics in human locomotion: A neuromusculoskeletal modeling study
Auke Ijspeert, Andrea Di Russo, Dimitar Yuriev Stanev, Stéphane Armand
The central nervous system of humans and other animals modulates spinal cord activity to achieve several locomotion behaviors. Previous neuromechanical models investigated the modulation of human gait changing selected parameters belonging to CPGs (Central ...
2021Mechanics of very slow human walking
Auke Ijspeert, Amy Roning Wu, Cole Stewart Simpson
Human walking speeds can be influenced by multiple factors, from energetic considerations to the time to reach a destination. Neurological deficits or lower-limb injuries can lead to slower walking speeds, and the recovery of able-bodied gait speed and beh ...
Springer2019Influence of Spinal Cord Integrity on Gait Control in Human Spinal Cord Injury
Background. Clinical trials in spinal cord injury (SCI) primarily rely on simplified outcome metrics (ie, speed, distance) to obtain a global surrogate for the complex alterations of gait control. However, these assessments lack sufficient sensitivity to i ...
Sage Publications Inc2016Development of Walk Assistive Orthoses for Elderly
The proportion of elderly people is rapidly growing and the resources to help them will soon be insufficient. An important difficulty faced by the seniors is locomotion. Among the conditions that may be responsible for gait impairment, the reduced muscular ...
EPFL2016Theiler's virus infection of 129Sv mice that lack the interferon alpha/beta or interferon gamma receptors
The Daniels strain of Theiler's virus causes a persistent infection of the white matter of spinal cord of susceptible mice, with chronic inflammation and primary demyelination. Inbred 129Sv mice are resistant to this infection; they present with mild encep ...
