The postural control system has two main functions: first, to build up posture against gravity
and ensure that balance is maintained; and second, to fix the orientation and position of the …

Life Span Motor Development, Eighth Edition With HKPropel Access, is a leading text for
hel** students understand a person's movement abilities as the interaction of the …

It is known that for a large magnitude push a human or a humanoid robot must take a step to
avoid a fall. Despite some scattered results, a principled approach towards" when and …

Studies of mechanisms of adaptive behavior generally focus on neurons and circuits. But
adaptive behavior also depends on interactions among the nervous system, body and …

This article reviews the neural control of posture as understood through studies of automatic
responses to mechanical perturbations. Recent studies of responses to postural …

Previous studies have identified two discrete strategies for the control of posture in the
sagittal plane based on EMG activations, body kinematics, and ground reaction forces. The …

1 We studied quiet stance investigating strategies for maintaining balance. Normal subjects
stood with natural stance and with feet together, with eyes open or closed. Kinematic, kinetic …

The question posed in this study is whether optimal control and state estimation can explain
selection of control strategies used by humans, in response to small perturbations to stable …

In the study of balance and postural control the (Single) Inverted Pendulum model (SIP) has
been taken for a long time as an acceptable paradigm, with the implicit assumption that only …
