Background Static balancing assessment is often complemented with dynamic balancing
tasks. Numerous dynamic balancing assessment methods have been developed in recent …

Summary In 1995, David Winter concluded that postural analysis of upright stance was often
restricted to studying the trajectory of the center of pressure (CoP). However, postural control …

In this article we consider the‐stabilization of n th‐order linear time‐invariant dynamical
systems using multiplicity‐induced‐dominancy‐based controller design in the presence of …

Older adults frequently experience a decrease in balance control that leads to increased
numbers of falls, injuries and hospitalization. Therefore, evaluating older adults' ability to …

The question of how the inverted position of a pendulum can be stabilized is of fundamental
importance for understanding human balancing tasks. Applications range from postural …

We present stability and control analysis of a rider-bicycle system under human steering and
body movements. The dynamic model of rider-bicycle interactions is first constructed to …

Accurate characterization of ankle mechanics in lower extremity function is essential to
advance the design and control of robots physically interacting with the human lower …

Multilegged locomotion improves the mobility of terrestrial animals and artifacts. Using many
legs has advantages, such as the ability to avoid falling and to tolerate leg malfunction …

Scientific literature is giving greater importance to dynamic balance in fall prevention.
Recently, the validity and reliability of the most employed functional tests for dynamic …

The relation between balancing performance and reaction time is investigated for human
subjects balancing on rolling balance board of adjustable physical parameters: adjustable …
