NONLINEAR MUSCLE LENGTH-TENSION CURVES AFFECT THE CONTROL OF ELECTRICALLY STIMULATED ANTAGONIST MUSCLES.

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

Robust controller designs for electrically stimulated muscle systems critically depend on muscle nonlinearities. Experimental and mathematical modeling results are presented which demonstrate that nonlinear muscle length-tension curves cause magnitude dependent stability conditions for proportional closed-loop positioning systems. These results have applications in the design of clinical neural prostheses for returning function to spinal cord injured persons.
