BAT Lab Presents Research at American Society of Biomechanics Conference
Current and future BAT lab members are presenting their research this week at the Annual American Society of Biomechanics Conference in Raleigh, NC. Research topics include prostheses, exoskeletons, whole-body biomechanics, ankle and toe joint kinetics and muscle-tendon dynamics:
Eric Honert
Whole-Body Walking Biomechanics With vs. Without A Toe Joint: Implications for Prosthetic Foot Design
Erik Lamers
Importance of Prosthetic Ankle Range-of-Motion For Ascending and Descending Slopes
Emily Matijevich*
Method of Assessing Hip Circumduction in Persons with Multiple Sclerosis While Wearing a Portable Powered Ankle Foot Orthoss
*New PhD student joining the BAT lab later this month, and presenting her research from the University of Illinois
Matt Yandell
Transforming How We Physically Integrate Exoskeletons with the Human Body to Augment Movement
Karl Zelik
(a) Quantifying Physical Interface Dynamics: Human-Prosthesis and Human-Exoskeleton Power Transmission
(b) From Muscle-Tendon to Whole-Body Dynamics: Towards a Multi-Scale Empirical Understanding of Human Biomechanics
