DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2021.110727
Abstract: A reduced capacity of plantar flexors and other muscles to extend the hip and knee during gait was shown in modelling studies when the tibial torsion angle is > 30° than normal. The aim of the current… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2020.2975729
Abstract: Averaging electromyographic activity prior to muscle synergy computation is a common method employed to compensate for the inter-repetition variability usually associated with this kind of physiological recording. Capturing muscle synergies requires the preservation of accurate… read more here.
