Abstract | The kinematic and dynamic properties of the ankle joint (talocrural region) in normal subjects provide important information for the design of rehabilitation robots, below-knee prostheses, ankle-foot orthoses, and exoskeletons. This paper presents a quantitative analysis of published experimental data, simulation studies of human gait, and a dynamic model of ankle joint intrinsic and reflex stiffness to determine design requirements for such ankle devices to operate in the sagittal plane (i.e. ankle plantarflexion/dorsiflexion). The design requirements are derived in terms of average torque, rotatum, range of motion, velocity, acceleration, system bandwidth, torque-velocity curve, and the torque probability density function. 2016 IEEE. |
