CPG-Controlled Frontal Biped Model for the Evaluation of Pathological Gait

Abstract: Increased frontal-plane hip movement of the affected leg during the swing phase is a commonly observed gait adaptation in stroke patients. Recent evidence suggests that pathologically-induced torque coupling may contribute to asymmetric gait behaviors observed following stroke. This study proposes to use a CPG-controlled three-dimensional (3D) bipedal model to quantify the effects of abnormal torque coupling on frontal plane gait kinematics. Model dynamics have been evaluated using overground data collection o… Show more
