Simulation of Human Walking Using a Combination of Synergy and Central Pattern Generators Approaches, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Zohoor, Hassan (Supervisor) ; Farahmand, Farzam (Supervisor)
Abstract
Human walking as a rhythmic movement, despite of being simple in implementation, is so complex in biomechanical modeling and has attracted the attention of most of the researchers. Numerous theories and assumptions have been proposed for modeling this motor pattern. Central pattern generators are neural circuits in the spinal cord responsible for generating rhythmic motor patterns in rhythmic activities such as walking. On the other hand, muscle synergy has been introduced as a solution for alleviating the redundancy of the muscular system. In this hypothesis, the central nervous system activates muscle groups that are called muscle modules. Using this hypothesis facilitates the...
