Evaluation of the Beam-F3 method for locating the F3 position from the 10–20 international system
(2022-07)
Article
Open AccessElectromagnetic brain transcranial stimulation techniques have emerged to treat certain pathologies that require precise anatomical localization in the scalp to access the underlying cortical targets. For example, repetitive ... -
The effect of prosthetic alignment on the stump temperature and ground reaction forces during gait in transfemoral amputees
(2022-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBackground Lower limb prosthetic alignment is a procedure mostly subjective. A prosthetic misaligned induces gait deviations and long-term joint diseases. The alignment effects for each lower limb and the stump stays ... -
Evaluation of Optimal Control Approaches for Predicting Active Knee-Ankle-Foot-Orthosis Motion for Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury
(Frontiers Media SA, 2022-01-24)
Article
Open AccessGait restoration of individuals with spinal cord injury can be partially achieved using active orthoses or exoskeletons. To improve the walking ability of each patient as much as possible, it is important to personalize ... -
