Individual Muscle Control using an Exoskeleton Robot for Muscle Function Testing
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-08)
Healthy individuals modulate muscle activation patterns according to their intended movement and external environment. Persons with neurological disorders (e.g., stroke and spinal cord injury), however, have problems in ...
Pinpointed Muscle Force Control Taking Into Account the Control DOF of Power-assisting Device
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-09)
Large Effective-Strain Piezoelectric Actuators Using Nested Cellular Architecture with Exponential Strain Amplification Mechanisms
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-10)
Design and analysis of piezoelectric actuators having over 20% effective strain using an exponential strain amplification mechanism are presented in this paper. Piezoelectric ceramic material, such as lead zirconate titanate ...

1-DOF Dynamic Pitching Robot that Independently Controls Velocity, Angular Velocity, and Direction of a Ball
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010)
This paper demonstrates that a 1-DOF planar ball-throwing robot has the capability of controlling three kinematic variables of a ball independently: translational velocity, angular velocity, and direction. The throwingmotion ...
