Investigation of Postural Control Using Sensomotorically Extended Musculoskeletal Human Models

Novel postural control models of standing and walking are explored to characterize the components of dynamic balance control. For this purpose, clinically annotated standing and walking movements are used as input data, and muscle-actuated multi-body models are extended by a sensorimotor level. Neuromotor and control model parameters of (patho-)physiological movement are identified with the help of machine learning methods. Technical and clinical validation of the models will be performed. New EmpkinS measurement techniques will be transferred to the developed models as soon as possible.
