The relationship of poststroke spasticity and motor recovery can be confusing.“True” motor
recovery refers to return of motor behaviors to prestroke state with the same end-effectors …

We reviewed neural control and biomechanical description of gait in both non-disabled and
post-stroke subjects. In addition, we reviewed most of the gait rehabilitation strategies …

Walking dysfunction occurs at a very high prevalence in stroke survivors. Human walking is
a phenomenon often taken for granted, but it is mediated by complicated neural control …

Neuromechanical principles define the properties and problems that shape neural solutions
for movement. Although the theoretical and experimental evidence is debated, we present …

Personalized neuromusculoskeletal (NMS) models can represent the neurological,
physiological, and anatomical characteristics of an individual and can be used to estimate …

Evidence suggests that the nervous system controls motor tasks using a low-dimensional
modular organization of muscle activation. However, it is not clear if such an organization …

Humans walk and run at a range of speeds. While steady locomotion at a given speed
requires no net mechanical work, moving faster does demand both more positive and …

Little is known about the integration of neural mechanisms for balance and locomotion.
Muscle synergies have been studied independently in standing balance and walking, but …

A long standing goal in motor control is to determine the fundamental output controlled by
the CNS: does the CNS control the activation of individual motor units, individual muscles …

There is much experimental evidence for the existence of biomechanical constraints which
simplify the problem of control of multi‐segment movements. In addition, it has been …
