Sit-to-stand (STS) motion is one of the most common movements of a person during daily life. The motion, as a prerequisite for other movements, such as running and climbing, can be a very challenging task for the elderly or disabled people. Assistant tools, such as auxiliary walkers and...

3 Abstract Background Although physical performance tests of the lower extremities are used to assess sarcopenia and frailty, little is known about the mechanisms by which the parameters of ground reaction force (GRF) measured during sit- to-stand motion affect the frailty status in ...
Currently, control of exoskeletons in rehabilitation focuses on imposing desired trajectories to promote relearning of motions. Furthermore, assistance is often provided by imposing these desired trajectories using impedance controllers. However, lower-l
