Varying negative work assistance at the ankle with a soft exosuit during loaded walking
Abstract Background Only very recently, studies have shown that it is possible to reduce the metabolic rate of unloaded and loaded walking using robotic ankle exoskeletons. Some studies obtained this result by means of high positive work assistance while others combined negative and positive work as...
