PLoS Comput Biol
. 2024 Sep;
20(9):e1012411.
PMID: 39269982
The metabolic energy rate of individual muscles is impossible to measure without invasive procedures. Prior studies have produced models to predict metabolic rates based on experimental observations of isolated muscle...

PMID: 38936234
Walking without falling requires stabilization of the trajectory of the body center of mass relative to the base of support. Model studies suggest that this requires active, feedback control, i.e.,...

. 2024 Jun;
14(1):14652.
PMID: 38918538
The workflow to simulate motion with recorded data usually starts with selecting a generic musculoskeletal model and scaling it to represent subject-specific characteristics. Simulating muscle dynamics with muscle-tendon parameters computed...

. 2024 Jun;
20(6):e1012219.
PMID: 38900787
The unique structure of the human foot is seen as a crucial adaptation for bipedalism. The foot's arched shape enables stiffening the foot to withstand high loads when pushing off,...

PMID: 36998319
Introduction: Stepping accuracy, speed, and stability are lower in older compared to young adults. Lower stepping performance in older adults may be due to larger accuracy-speed-stability trade-offs because of reduced...

PMID: 36277379
Muscle-driven simulations have been widely adopted to study muscle-tendon behavior; several generic musculoskeletal models have been developed, and their biofidelity improved based on available experimental data and computational feasibility. It...

PMID: 35077455
Physics-based predictive simulations have been shown to capture many salient features of human walking. Yet they often fail to produce realistic stance knee and ankle mechanics. While the influence of...

PMID: 34746773
Both resistance training (RT) and perturbation-based training (PBT) have been proposed and applied as interventions to improve reactive balance performance in older adults. PBT is a promising approach but the...

PMID: 34170903
Standing and walking balance control in humans relies on the transformation of sensory information to motor commands that drive muscles. Here, we evaluated whether sensorimotor transformations underlying walking balance control...
