The relative contributions of the prosthetic and sound limb to balance control in unilateral transtibial amputees
In unilateral transtibial amputees maintenance of standing balance is compromised due to
the lack of active ankle control in the prosthetic limb. The purpose of this study is to …

A stricter condition for standing balance after unexpected perturbations
In order to account for the dynamic nature of balance, the concept of the 'extrapolated centre
of mass' XcoM has been introduced (Hof et al., 2005). The law for standing balance was …
