This paper describes the development of a self adaptive neuro-fuzzy control mechanism for FES-assisted indoor rowing exercise (FES-rowing). The FES-rowing is introduced as a total body exercise for rehabilitation of function of lower body through the application of functional electrical stimulation (FES). The neuro-fuzzy control technique is a control technique that combines fuzzy logic controller...
This paper presents a simulation of bipedal locomotion to control the stimulation pulses of functional electrical stimulation (FES) for activating muscles for paraplegic walking with spring brake orthosis (SBO). The work is a first effort towards restoring natural like swing phase in paraplegic gait through a new hybrid orthosis, referred to as spring brake orthosis (SBO). This mechanism simplifies...
This paper describes the development of a fuzzy control scheme for functional electrical stimulation, (FES)-assisted paraplegic walking with wheel walker. The simulation in this study starts with a model of humanoid with wheel walker using the Visual Nastran (Vn4D) dynamic simulation software. The humanoid model is designed based on anthropometric data. Two stimulated muscle models, quadriceps and...
This paper describes the effect of inclined track in an indoor rowing machine on the rowing exercise for paraplegics. The indoor rowing exercise is introduced as a total body exercise for rehabilitation of function of lower extremities through the application of functional electrical stimulation (FES). A model of the machine is developed using the Visual Nastran (Vn4D) software environment. Nine different...
This paper presents the development of an FES-assisted indoor rowing exercise model designed for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). A modified indoor rowing machine and humanoid are modelled using the Visual Nastran dynamic simulation software. The humanoid model is designed based on anthropometric data. The knee and elbow trajectories are obtained for both normal rowing sequence and rowing sequence...
This paper presents the development of physiological and mathematical model of muscle extension and flexion induced by functional electrical stimulation (FES) for indoor rowing exercise. Three segmental models with nine mono-articular and bi-articular muscle groups are developed to drive hip, knee and ankle extension and flexion. The developed muscle models are evaluated under the dynamic simulation...
