DOI: 10.1109/tpel.2018.2879759
Abstract: This paper proposes an adaptive flux observer (AFO) method of sensorless induction motor (IM) drives. The AFO gains are designed to ensure accurate estimated speed, especially at very low frequencies in the regenerating mode of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2016-013342
Abstract: Introduction In patients with neuromuscular disorders and subsequent calf muscle weakness, metabolic walking energy cost (EC) is nearly always increased, which may restrict walking activity in daily life. To reduce walking EC, a spring-like ankle-foot-orthosis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0269215520927738
Abstract: Objective: To identify whether patients in the subacute stage of stroke, with foot drop, would have better gait outcomes when using a double-adjustable AFO (DA AFO) or a posterior leaf spring AFO (PLS AFO) at… read more here.
