gait cycle

Varying combinations of muscle groups were stimulated and foot switches were used to trigger each channel at the appropriate period of the gaitcycle.
Little difference was seen in the curves, which were virtually identical throughout the gaitcycle.
The aim is to attempt to achieve maximum voluntary hip power during the full gaitcycle.
In this way, actuating torques, together with reaction ground forces are continuous on the overall gaitcycle.
In this paper, unlike former approaches, we present an algebraic optimisation method using a parameterisation technique for generating a complete gaitcycle.
The joint profiles for a full gaitcycle including both single support and double support phases will be designed.
Additionally, the pneumatic cylinder provides energy storage and progressive damping at the extremes of the gaitcycle.
Figures 6 and 7 show one half of the gaitcycle for cases 1 and 2, respectively.
A paired t-test was performed for each variable at each phase of the gaitcycle.
The hip trajectory is prescribed during the whole gaitcycle, while the ankle trajectory is only specified during the swing phase.
When a new gaitcycle starts the front and rear auxiliary extensors are reset to 1 and 0, respectively.
As discussed in the previous section, all the joint trajectories during a gaitcycle can be divided into two portions.
On the other hand, it is very likely that relaxing the continuity constraints at gait-phase transitions should help to generate a gaitcycle less energy consuming.
Toward the end of swing, the knee hits the extension stop at the end of the gaitcycle resulting in a flexion moment for both cases.
A complete human gaitcycle may be divided into phases of single support (one leg in contact with the ground) and double support (both legs in contact with the ground).
