Surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals are widely employed as a neural control source for
lower-limb exoskeletons, in which gait recognition based on sEMG is particularly important …

Background Individuals often carry asymmetric loads over challenging surfaces such as
uneven or irregular terrain, which may require a higher demand for postural control than …

The biomechanics of load carriage has been studied extensively with regards to single
individuals, yet not so much with regards to collective transport. We investigated the …

The purpose of this study was to assess postural stability in the medial-lateral (ML) direction
when carrying unilateral and bilateral loads during stair negotiation. Twenty-four healthy …

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders are a major health issue, but there is little research
to show whether active lumbar exoskeletons are suitable for single-shoulder load. The …

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of unexpected gait termination
in able-bodied participants during gait initiation on spatiotemporal and stance limb …

ABSTRACT Background and Aims: The purpose of the present study was to examine the
effect of unilateral and bilateral backpack carrying with different weights on the spatio …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyse the impact of applying an external load on the
distribution of pressure on the plantar side of the foot and maintaining body balance, using …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of different vertical positions of an
asymmetrical load on the anticipatory postural adjustments phase of gait initiation. Sixty …

Nowdays, the backpack is designed multipurpose to carry all human needs. However, the
excessive load on the backpack could lead to the postural problem that disturbs the human …
