A quasi-passive model of human leg function in level-ground walking
- In this paper, we seek to understand how leg muscles and tendons work mechanically during walking in order to motivate the design of efficient robotic legs. We hypothesize that a...

Biomechanical mechanism for transitions in phase and frequency of arm and leg swing during walking
As humans increase walking speed, there are concurrent transitions in the frequency ratio between arm and leg movements from 2:1 to 1:1 and in the phase relationship between the mo...

Hybrid Control of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX)
The first functional load-carrying and energetically autonomous exoskeleton was demonstrated at U.C. Berkeley, walking at the average speed of 0.9 m/s (2 mph) while carrying a 34 ...
