A Rigid Body Database On Human Movement

这项研究的主要目的是通过研究净关节力矩和个人肌肉力量如何有助于控制人类运动，将身体残疾人士的能力与他或她执行日常生活活动的能力联系起来。测量这些贡献对于确定自适应运动控制策略、了解选择和实施行走、站立和从坐姿站起等活动的运动控制策略的过程以及确定辅助技术在增强功能方面所起的作用至关重要。我们扩展了现有的运动分析方法，这些方法估计关节力矩或肌肉力对单个关节和身体部分的运动的影响，以及它们对整体任务性能的贡献。

The primary objective of this study was to link the capabilities of a physically challenged person to his or her ability to perform activities of daily living, by studying how net joint moments and individual muscle forces contribute to the control of human movement. Measuring these contributions is critical for defining adaptive movement control strategies, understanding the process by which movement control strategies for activities like walking, standing and rising from a seated position are selected and implemented, and determining the contribution that assistive technologies play in enhancing function. We have extended existing movement analysis methodologies that estimate the influence of joint moments or muscle forces on the motion of individual joints and body segments, as well as their contribution to overall task performance.
