| Research Abstract |
By examining a new method of driving ankle joint, we achieved success by electric stimulation of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Next, based on the body weight support treadmill walking, the physiological driving control of the hip and ankle joint in walking was investigated by changing the body weight support rate and the walking speed. It is experimentally admitted that the driving control gait by the ankle joint was automatically regulated by the hip joint control. A preliminary experimental gait study was successfully conducted by driving the ankle joint in the imcomplete cervical cord injury.
