Lower limb response to modified ankle impedance in gait
… to increase and decrease the stiffness of the ankle joint during treadmill walking to measure the effect of ankle impedance on lower limb joint kinematics. By quantifying the effect of ankle impedance on the knee joint we sought to better understand coordination and control of the ankle and …

The measurement and interpretation of actively modulated static ankle impedance using a therap[e]utic robot
… study providing measurements of human static ankle mechanical impedance. Accurate measurements of ankle impedance when muscles were voluntarily activated were obtained using a therapeutic robot, Anklebot, and an electromyographic recording system. Important features of ankle impedance, and …

Quantitative characterization of multi-variable human ankle mechanical impedance
Ankle mechanical impedance, which is a dynamic relationship between angular displacement and the corresponding torque at the ankle joint, plays a key role in natural interaction of the lower-extremity with the environment. The human ankle is a biomechanically complex joint consisting of three bones …

Ankle mechanical impedance under muscle fatigue
This study reports the effects of ankle muscle fatigue on ankle mechanical impedance. It suggests that decreasing ankle impedance with muscle fatigue may contribute to an increased probability of ankle injury. If confirmed, this observation may have important athletic, military and clinical …
