So-called robot–object Lagrangian systems consist of a class of nonsmooth underactuated
complementarity Lagrangian systems, with a specific structure: an “object” and a “robot” …

Multibody dynamics deals with the study of mechanical systems composed of multiple
bodies, whose motion interactions are governed by the presence of kinematic constraints …

The talocrural and the talocalcaneal articulations collectively form the ankle joint complex of
the human foot and are the focus of investigation of this work. The talocrural articulation …

Humans excel at robust bipedal walking in complex natural environments. In each step, they
adequately tune the interaction of biomechanical muscle dynamics and neuronal signals to …

Abstract According to the World Health Organization, 15% of the world's population lived
with some form of disability in 2011 and, nowadays, more than one billion people worldwide …

Predicting the ground reaction force (GRF) and ground reaction moment (GRM) with a
biomechanical modelbased approach has an advantage for biomechanical gait analysis in …

Predictive neuromuscular simulations are a powerful tool for studying the biomechanics of
human walking, and deriving design criteria for technical devices like prostheses or …

Stacked multibody systems, exemplified by overhead cranes in nuclear power plants
(OCNPP), play a crucial role in engineering applications. Under strong earthquakes, non …

One of the most critical aspects when developing biomechanical models is the formulation of
the joints, which, in the case of the human body, have limited range of motion (RoM). Thus …
